It is a major work. Every minute spent on researching and writing this book was well worth it. The very day when it struck me to write Planned UnParenthood I knew I was on to something very special. Five years after the initial release, it still is something special. Shortly after the release, a reader […]
I have never been offended by a negative review of my books, or anything I have written for the web and print. Unless someone is defaming your name and reputation, neither should you. Rather, I have learned to thrive on it and move forward. It is not an easy thing to do. No one should […]
It was a few months ago when I was looking to bring a new focus into all aspects of my life. On somewhat of a whim, I wrote to one of my favourite word warriors with a view to seeing if she would recommend something. A book, an essay, anything. To my delight, she wrote […]
Reading is a refresher to writing. Reading is learning structure and style. In a sense, reading can feel like a relaxing kind of work. Of the many books I have read over the last few years, most have been autobiographies about musicians whose artistic output I have enjoyed immensely. In most of these kinds of […]

I just sent another revised version of my first book to the distribution network. The revision is a simple one where I just amended website information. My domain is long gone for now but I am planning to set up a new one in the next year or so which will again connect readers directly […]
I’ve never minded the cold. Winter can be a great valid excuse for sticking close to the security of your own surroundings. Especially when they are well-heated by whatever means exist. Wood heat certainly serves the place I call home in a very good way. This Atlantic winter has certainly been colder than expected. My […]
It has been 10 months since I was able to make my first book available to the public through my own company, Frogsong Productions. The reader response to date has been very positive and I am grateful for all of the feedback received. It is very possible that this book will have a long shelf […]
This photo is from a Cemetery in Halifax. Not the famous one in Fairview which is the burial ground for many of the victims of the Titanic. This one is Camp Hill, near the famous Halifax Public Gardens. The remains of a true writing inspiration lies a few dozen yards away from where I am […]
