I had the craziest idea today while taking a late-night walk around Provo. It’s for the new series that I’m working on, Sons of the Starfarers, and it’s going to take six or seven books to get there, but it’s going to be AWESOME. Unfortunately, I can’t say much about it because the first book… Continue reading Crazy ideas and other updates

On the verge of another story
So with Star Wanderers coming to a close, at least as far as the actual writing is concerned, I’ve recently found myself back in that weird writerly place where I don’t have any pressing projects to work on. Whenever this happens, I find that it’s generally a good idea to start something new. Until just a… Continue reading On the verge of another story
Story Notebook #7
All right, it’s been forever since my last story notebook post, so I figure it’s time to do another one. Last time, I shared the story ideas I from my fifth story notebook, during my time in Washington DC. This next notebook is pretty tattered, and it covers my time from graduation to winter of… Continue reading Story Notebook #7
The ever elusive title
Man, titles are so freaking hard. I just spent the last two hours trying to think of a better title for Into the Nebulous Deep, my current work in progress. Here’s what my brainstorming looked like: Deep Nebula Heart of the Nebula Serve and Protect Love in the Deep A Light in the Deep Through… Continue reading The ever elusive title
Fighting for a Homeland
For the past few weeks, I’ve been brainstorming ideas for my next big novel project.

By far, the one that’s struck me the most is Fighting for a Homeland.… Continue reading Fighting for a Homeland
Deciding on the next project
First, you know how I said I’d raise the price of Genesis Earth as an experiment? Well, after thinking it through a little more, I figured that it’s more important at this point to build a following, and to do that I should probably have at least one novel at the $2.99 price point. Since Genesis… Continue reading Deciding on the next project
First Radio interview and other such stuff
Dude, check it out–my first radio interview just went live on the Dungeon Crawler’s Radio website! I met these guys at CONduit last month, where they had a booth and were recording all sorts of authors and artist. They were way cool when I talked with them, and when they found out I was a… Continue reading First Radio interview and other such stuff
In search of a title
Okay, it’s REALLY bugging me that I don’t have a good title for my next novel. I’ve been thinking, though, and here are a few of the ones I’ve come up with: Chasing Home Exile’s End Worlds Away Worlds Apart from Home Where I Am Fallen Fallen from Home Fallen in the Wilderness I’m not… Continue reading In search of a title
Retired notebook: part 1
Like most writers, I keep a notebook with me at all times. I use it a lot for scrap paper, but I also jot down all the weird story ideas that come to me, usually while I’m doing something completely unrelated to the idea. A while ago, my old notebook got too ratty to keep… Continue reading Retired notebook: part 1
