Chapter 4 is finally "text-complete". Now I just have to go back and revise and edit. I'd have finished it sooner, but I kept having important stuff come up. Like last night, some farmer accidentally set his field on fire. We got the fire out. It only took resources from about half the county and … Continue reading Chapter 4 almost finished!

Shadow and Light – Chapter 03
(Chapter 02) Nikka rode alone among the rice paddies. The stalks were tall and green now, waving back and forth gently in the breeze. It hadn't rained yet today, nor did it appear that it would.

Audiobook Update

Shadow and Light – Chapter 02
(Chapter 01) “The next fighters are coming out.” Rankala called out. Nikka sat up on the couch where she’d been reclining. “Move over, Saja. Let me see them.” Saja laughed and shifted aside. “I don’t know why you care. You won’t be old enough to breed for thirteen more years.” “I can still enjoy the … Continue reading Shadow and Light – Chapter 02

The Long Weekend
Here in Utah, the 24th of July is as big, if not bigger, than the 4th. For Spring City, it's the annual town festival day, featuring a firefighter's breakfast, parade, carnival, and more. I'm a member of the volunteer fire department here, so it was a busy day for me. I had to get up … Continue reading The Long Weekend
