A lot of work (and money) goes into creating a comic. Writing a novel also takes a lot of effort, months of sitting hunched over your laptop, typing away for hours on end. Both are books, but it’s different. Comic books are thin and readers go through them quickly while it takes a little longer […]
Famous, bestselling authors such as J.K. Rowling, Anne Rice, Stephen King, John Grisham, Dan Brown, and others get a huge support from their fan bases. Of course, they should, they deserve it. They have written spectacular books. I love John Grisham and I also like Stephen King’s earlier work. If we give these people such […]
Thomas Porter is a true word smith. His writing is honest and raw and I’ve published many of his essays and poems on my other website lilacduville.com. I’m always happy to share his words. You see, Thomas is my prison pen pal. I started writing him in February 2021. In time, friendship grew. We always […]

So close, I am so close to finishing the manuscript for The Path of the Stone – Time Travel, Harpies, Pirates; Fantasy Adventure Books for Teens and Adults. The Path of the Stone is a story I started writing last year, based on a dream I had. As soon as I woke up, I sat […]
Are there any new book releases today? Yes, there are! Thorn Heart is finally released! It took me three years to be able to share this story with the world. If you remember from a previous post, this story was stolen from me by a fake publisher, and the fear of losing all my hard […]
