You really, really do.

ICYMI: Last week I told you what's going on with my writing, and I mentioned that my long-term WIP is an adaptation of an ancient story to a modern world. I didn't have time or space to get into it then, but here's the rundown of the story I'll be telling (it's a wee late for spoilers anyway....). It's the ancient Roman story of the Gracchi brothers, Tiberius and Gaius Gracchus. They were born into the elite of the ruling Roman aristocracy; they were likable, energetic, talented, young men and the world was their oyster. Rome, however, was a city both rising and falling, as the rich got richer, and the poor were losing everything. Tiberius, the older of the two boys, saw an easy, highly reasonable and fair solution to a large part of this problem, and he made it his mission to have his solution passed into law. Have you ever seen an adult have a temper tantrum? How about 200+ multi-millionaires who also run your country throwing a temper tantrum? Tiberius was brutally murdered within months of taking up the fight for his fellow citizens. Fast forward ten years and his little brother Gaius is ready to pick-up where Tiberius left off. Gaius, however, is ready to reform not just the wealth distribution but the very system which allowed his brother's murder to happen in the first place. He's popular enough to do it, but those multi-millionaires are no less willing to budge than they were 10 years earlier; the only question is, how far can Gaius push before he too loses his life for what he believes in?

When you're in the middle of nowhere, your Google maps won't connect, and all you have is a local's map to get you around. And yes, that is a tank.

I know, I know! Christmas is over. My own decorations are being packed up and stored in the same cave Michael Bublè hides in, but the good moments don't get packed up. Tell me, what was one of your favorite holiday moments this year? Even if you had a bad Christmas, tell me about that one great cup of coffee that made everything bearable for just a moment. 🙂

It’s been a bit over a year since I released my last novel and we all know that the book industry expects a book a year-ish. I don’t have my next book out yet, so…what’s going on? My answer in this video is everything that social media hates: over 30 seconds, no musical overlay, no dance moves, no filters, no unboxing anything, and choppy editing. But there are background squirrels!

We love our parents, but they sure can try our patience sometimes, can't they? Did you get to spend any time with your parents this Christmas? Did they drive you up the wall a bit? 😄
