And of course I am always working on more stuff for later in the year

Changes......and new stuff on the way

Kind of starting over as you can see. I've deleted everything
And it may be awhile before I get back to regular updates but rest assured I am still writing- though a bit slower then usual since I have a few real life issues to still handle.

But I have a few new short stories planned for summer and a fantasy novel due in 2014

Maybe come back here once a month for a while to get updates.Meanwhile I DO have 4 books on Amazon right now available to read and you can check them out here
