Cover Reveal: ‘Blank Page to Bookshelf’ – Early 2026

Two years in the making …

I’m writing the final draft of a book based on my workshops for the past nearly-two years: fiction writing essentials, character creation, and self-publishing. I love doing the workshops, and this is a natural outgrowth of that. One of the most rewarding things I learned the past couple years is how much I’ve learned in 50+ years of writing, 15 of self-publishing … it’s a natural progression for me to write this book, and a bit of a ‘what’s next?’ venture. We’re about to find out—what’s next for me, what’s next for this country, what’s next? It really is the question that kept me going through the rough times and difficult years, especially in my youth. I was determined to stick around not just to prove a point, but to find out what my life would look like after whatever crisis I was in had finally passed. I’m still asking myself that question, and I’m still excited to see what comes next.
