Pesky Real Life. Resurrected Post.

February 15, 2015 Pesky Real Life I held a giveaway contest for “Reunion” recently. Congratulations to the winners. I hope you all enjoy the novel.

State of the Website, Updated. Resurrected (and Remarkably Apposite) Post.

February 1, 2015 State of the Website, Updated We’re into the second week of my website deciding to shit the bed.

Had flights of Maia not called him home in 1973 he’d be pushing the Old Took for longevity records, but still shy of Bilbo’s Ring-assisted accomplishment.
