R&L News

Well, I’ve survived the World Cup, a few Grand Prix weekends, a couple of health issues, my wife having a few tons of dental work, and a bit of the writer’s lament. On the World Cup.  I’m starting a contest to name the Yugo awards for the World Cup.  For those not in the know, [...]

Chapter 26 Posted

Ah, as life would have it, it went well.  Just as I plan for all sorts of interruptions, problems, and such…  Things went well!!! So…  tomorrow will be…  eh, uhm…  er…  Murphy is alive and well, and an optimist! Enjoy the chapter! Orb

Chapter 26 Update

Chapter 26 is finally in its last edit stages and I should begin the HTML conversion process either tonight or tomorrow.  Chapter 27 is on track.  Still no acceptable draft, but rapidly closing in on one.  Just one scene…  Just one scene!  Okay, so it’s the most critical scene in the chapter (and for the [...]

R&L Chapter 25 Posted

Well, Wednesday has come to an end at “Don Sanche, or the Castle of Love”.  Enjoy the chapter! Chapter 26, the beginning of Thursday, is in final draft.  I plan to finish my edits in the next day or so and turn it over to my team for their majick.  I doubt it will post [...]

2010 – Finally!

The Aughts were a damned interesting decade and I’m personally delighted that they are over.  Yes, some good, a few great, and many bad memories.  The chronicle of the decade would take at least a series of novels, which I’m not going to do here.  Let’s just say that I started the aughts out employed, [...]

Writing Again

OMG!  I hate the fall.  Yes, there are distractions.  Yet, then again, there are distractions all year long.  So, I don’t have that to fall back on.  Instead, I can only look at past history.  In the fall, I’ve performed horribly with my writing.  Another fall has past and I have yet another data point [...]

College Football

Ah, the season is upon us!  Of course, since Luis is very interested in pursuing excellence on the college gridiron, I find myself forced to ‘research’ the subject.  And, oh what a season it has been so far.  It doesn’t pay to be a top 5 team (nor top 10 this week).  I’m just hoping [...]

Screenplays

I’m currently working on three screenplays, each in a different phase of writing.  Awaiting a long needed rewrite is one under another pen name.  I plan on tackling this later in the year.  “Parker’s Perfect Pizza” (based on the Lazlo Zalezac’s “The Millionaire Next Door”) is in edit/rewrite.  And, I’m in the early development of [...]

R&L Chapter 23 Posted

Chapter 23 of “Rebbecca and Luis” has been posted!  Enjoy. Chapter 24 is well underway, the first draft is complete and in my editing and rewriting cycle. Orb

New Project

“Parker’s Perfect Pizza” is still around.  It will be a while before I tackle it again.  I’ve managed to “trim” the screenplay to 300 and some pages, which is not nearly short enough. So, to help me with it and tackle something easier (in length), I’m working on “Paddling Upstream” by Strickland83.  The story has [...]
