My God, just look at it… So big. So yellow. So finally printed and published. Man alive, this was a long one. No other book in my life straddled worse events, but despite everything we brought it in for a landing. Anyway, back to the mines. The word mines. Because I’ve got another announcement coming in moments!
Oh, and you can buy it here. Or you can just window shop by reading the blurb. It’s really up to you.

I told you there was… MORE TO COME!!!
Mr Otto’s Bookstore joins the proud group of retailers now carrying Old Debts and I’m feeling super grateful! A HUGE thanks to Alex for carrying my work!!!
A HUGE thanks to the team at Barnes and Noble of Stockton who are now featuring my novel Old Debts! I always hoped to be here and it feels better even better than I thought (and I thought it would feel quite good).
Another HUGE thanks to the Haggin Museum for hosting my talk, How To Write a Novel in an Hour! It was a wonderful turnout full of soon-to-be-authors , can’t wait for the next one!
Check out the upcoming Vintage Faire at North Market in Modesto! There’s going to be a bunch of local, talented artisans present, and I’ll bet you that they just might be willing to exchange their beautiful arts and crafts for your legal tender. I’ll also be present with a collection of novels (each one looking for their forever home), so swing by and pick one or thee up. They’re so adorable!!!
On Saturday, January 25th, I’ll be in the Haggin Museum at 2 o’clock giving my world “famous” one-hour presentation on how to write a novel. I’ll be covering everything from KM Weiland to Dwight Swain with a focus on how simple techniques compose macro-structure in modern writing. It should be instructive and fun, but if it’s boring then at least we’ll be in The Haggin which is a gorgeous place be no matter what mood you’re in.
