Filtered through the eyes of a child, looking so lost and beguiled. Lost and somehow found, no one is looking or hears him making a sound.
A mind full of years of wisdom, ignored by those who only hear a tiny voice speaking cynicism.
Moving through isles, words unheard for miles. Seeing familiar faces, though they look right through him to empty spaces.
A child’s voice with sincere words, demanding to be seen and heard. It is drowned out by others and instead becomes smothered.
The voiceless child has no voice, only in his waking hours does he have a choice.

The Author Diaries #1: The Storyteller’s Curse — Exclusive Prologue Reveal
Author’s Note: Dear Readers, Thank you for being here — for reading, subscribing, and stepping back into the world of The Storyteller Chronicles. When I finished Book One, I truly thought the story was done. Silas was defeated. The grimoire was safe. Lauren had saved the day — in two worlds — and her family were reunited.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

good work, sometimes the silence speaks loudest
This was good. It was though provoking.
