Wow, so much has happened and yet nothing has happened at all (how’s that for passive voice?) – the different “muches” crashed into each other and created this post’s title in case it confused you. Hmm…without details, here’s what’s happening: I have a fast-food job (JDawgs if you’ve ever heard of it) and […]
Yearly Archives: 2012
You deserve an update. I rewrote my book requested by Shadow Mountain. I mailed it in about two months ago. If my understanding of the publishing world proves accurate, I have anywhere from four to ten more months before I’ll hear back. In the meantime, I’ve always had the sneaking […]
Writer’s Block
BYU had its annual Publisher’s Fair yesterday and I had some success there that I’m not going to leave you out of. I’ve copied my update that I made on Facebook yesterday below (then you’ll know why this post is not more substantial and why I don’t really have much time […]

In honor of “Life, the Universe, and Everything”: My Personalized ...
Normally I’d spend today and the next two at Life, the Universe, and Everything – a writing conference. But they moved the location to Utah Valley University this year (after 30 years at BYU? seriously?) and I’m unable to get there realistically. So in honor of writing, I’m […]
In honor of “Life, the Universe, and Everything”: My Personalized ...
Let’s be honest here…now that I’ve set a deadline for a “publishable” draft of my debut novel, I’ve crashed and burned. The first chapter of my book is in great condition it’s true, but the second chapter has me at a loss. I just don’t like how that writing is […]
