Conclave is a humorous fish out of water story with action, crime, and mystery mixed in for good measure. I'll start posting it in SOL after the last Stupid Boy book is done in early January.

Getting it Wrong is a rewrite of the original do-over story that I pulled off of SOL. There were two problems with the original. The first being it was chock-full of editing issues. The second was I felt it had gotten political in the end, so I changed the last third of the book. It also gives me a clear idea of how to write the next two in the series.

Both books are available on my website. Getting it Wrong is FREE.

I wanted to thank everyone for voting this the winner in this year's Haloween writing contest.

I just sent my most recent book to the editors - Conclave. I should have an advanced reader version ready in a few weeks and I will start posting it on SOL a couple of weeks after Senior Year III finishes posting in early January.

Since the chapters are shorter, I will post two per week. This is a full-length novel that came in just over 110K words.

It is a story about a fish out of water, as a young man is forced to move from the big city to a small town in Oklahoma. It is more of an action/adventure/mystery type of story, something new for me.

I don't plan to start writing A Better Man 2 until after the first of the year. By then I will be ready to tackle David and the gang again.

In the meantime, I'll either fix my do-over story or write some smut. While I write ABM2 I am thinking I'll also be writing the second Conclave book.

The goal is to have ABM2 done by about this time next year. The ideal would be sooner, but this is for fun, not a J.O.B.

Thanks for all your support. Be safe.

People are asked when the second Better Man will be available for Advanced Readers.

There will be two stories in-between. I needed a break from David. I did that when I wrote stories like Little Tony. When I came back it was much easier to carry on with the epic tale.

I will start writing ABM II shortly, which means sometime next year.

Thanks so much for all the emails and feedback. It is not easy to keep a story like this fresh.

It's been a crazy couple of weeks.

First, I completely redid my website. I swear there always be something to fiddle with.

I sent out an email about the next book in the Stupid Boy series. The college books are going to be called A Better Man. Based on reader feedback there are a couple of things that will be changed before it reaches SOL.

Finally, I've decided to take a break from writing about David and his friends and create something different. I plan to tackle the Action/Mystery book and see how I do with that.
