and this just in...

My five year old son just asked for a copy of my book..."But Dad, I don't have a copy. I'll put it on my dresser and then read it at night." Makes a dad proud!
Ben asks a good question...

Go here to order your copy of Entropy Gate - Journey...BTW, that page needs the dates of next release updated...there is a very strong chance that book two will be out in Nov.

Some odd (but encouraging) praise for Entropy Gate Journey...

The names have been left off of these comments to protect the innocent/guilty.

from a self-described non-Christian: It was a really good story...some of the characters were Christians, but I really wasn't offended.

from a fellow artist and self-described individual who is naive re: most things Christian: I'm on page 99 and I just wanted to tell you that, and forgive me, this is one hell of a story...I don't know where you're getting your ideas...it is really interesting...

So many times, Christian authors write for just Christians and they alienate non-Christians or they speak down to them or they are "preachy". I never wanted to write a novel for Christians, I wanted to write a novel that Christians and non-Christians alike could enjoy. Hopefully I am doing just that...
It's 9:30 and I'm going nuts...

What I'm supposed to be doing now is writing the musical for the JESTERS (a theatrical company of kids (ages 10-35) who have special needs (the non-politically correct term is handicapped)). The musical will be fun and whimsical...but after finishing BEYOND, I really want to delve into book three, REPERCUSSIONS. However, I have told myself that I will not touch book three until the musical is finished...

In other news...I have not been down into my studio since it flood two weeks ago...I really need to do some artwork...perhaps Tuesday night or Wed. night. There is a faculty/Alumni show coming up and I have a large paint I want to finish and put in...we can enter two so I might also put in a painting of a lighthouse that I did some time back...hopefully with the new "sketbook" site that will be up next week I can start showing more of the artwork that I am referencing here.
Fixed...sort of...
This isn't the link I was looking for, re: MEl Gibson's movie, but it does have a fair amount of info about it.

oy...how embarassing...I had posted something re: Mel Gibson's movie "PASSION" and it didn't work so I re posted it and then both posts showed up and then I realized that the link to the article was wrong and...well, I'm going to try to find the right page now...sorry for the confussion
jessica's story

Part one (three and a half pages) will be ready to post as soon as my brother returns from vacation...this is quite different for me as I am used to long stories (300-450+ pages). Chapter one is 3 and a half pages long...there will be illustrations too...and as mentioned...if you have all ready read book two...forget everything you know about Jessica...it's gone...also, if you read the rough draft of book three...forget all you know about Peter Tambov...just...forget it...okay?
