A Very Zombie Holiday

It is nice to finally be ticking some of the projects off the list. Keepers is still not done. I haven’t finished the final edit of The Darklands book 2. I am about two weeks later than I wanted to be with finishing up my zombie dad short story collection but at long last I [...]

The Shadow Men Published

I was never really sure where the whole publish myself thing was going to end up. I still don’t know. It was single-handedly the scariest moment of my life when I hit the publish button for A Very Zombie Holiday. I knew there wasn’t going to be a sudden rush to snap up my books [...]

Yes, people, I am a glutton for punishment. Today Whispers of the Dead crossed over into the published world at Amazon. It will soon be available at Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, iTunes, and a bunch of other places (I will post the links as the book goes live). This is my third book out and [...]

The Half-Marathon Man

The end is very near on my weight loss journey. I have only two more pounds to go before I am back to where I was before gaining the stupid weight back. Except, somewhere in the back of my mind is a lingering question. Can I get back to my college weight? I am not [...]

What Next?

As the end of the school year approaches I am trying to take a step back and prioritize where I am going next with my writing, health, and work. My writing has been particularly impacted as of late. I had a rough school year. Between teaching a class full of students with emotional trouble and [...]

The Sandman is A Bastard!

I am not going to lie here. I have terrible sleeping habits. I don’t know if I have some dreadful case of lifetime insomnia or it’s just another link in my chain of weirdness. Having said that the Sandman has been a real bastard to me lately (I should know as I am a lifetime [...]

C.S. Daley’s Girls Guide To Watching The Avengers

So my friend Amy wrote a blog about a stupid article over on Moviefone called “Girl’s Guide to The Avengers” (there were a bunch of other words after that but they seemed useless so I left them out). The article was crap. You know one of those articles that makes your blood get all icy. [...]

DRM or How To Punish Your Honest Customers

DRM (Digital Rights Management) does nothing. It stops no one from stealing your book, music, movie, comics. People who are going to break a copyright and post work on a pirate sight are going to do it no matter what. Companies who want to stop piracy (something akin to plugging your finger in the giant [...]

London: A Love Story

We have returned from across the pond. We are exhausted but had a wonderful time. We both absolutely loved our stay. It was really hard to get up and go to work on Monday. My body is in California but my heart is still in London. We walked the shit out of that city. We [...]

Are You Happy?

We saw a play last weekend called Maple and Vine. The driving force of the play was the question are you happy? One couple in the play goes through absurd machinations in an attempt to bring happiness into their lives. Sheri and I left really thinking about the question. It seems when most people in [...]

Slightly Off

I am slightly off and by slightly I mean am not sure I rotate with this planet very often. I am okay with this and have learned to live with it. There are times I drive myself completely crazy though. I have a tendency to lie down to sleep at night and let one stray [...]

iPad 3

I know this will shock no one but I bought an iPad 3 or iPad 4G or whatever the hell they are calling it. What might surprise you was I didn’t really care about upgrading to the new one. This move was done so Sheri could have my old iPad 2. Don’t get me wrong [...]

Running, and Writing, and Covers Oh My!

I have been struggling with the editing of the third book of my Darklands trilogy. I have decided what I need is a deadline. So, I have given myself until the end of this month to get it done. I want Sheri to be able to make her final pass through it and have it [...]
