April, best month EVER!
I just want to thank everyone that helped out in the beginning of April when I put book 3 out. The push of people picking it up in a short span of time may have been one of the keys to this month blowing away all of my prior sales records as well as any reasonable expectation I could have ever had for a “good” month of sales. That’s all, just wanted to say thanks to everyone for an amazing month of sales.
Now, if I can just boost sales a little more and someday get it into the “right” hands I can get to see After the Storm the movie… wouldn’t that be a kick in the head? 
P.S. I would LOVE to see that someday! LOVELOVELOVE!
Have a great week all,
Don

Oh what a strange week it’s been
I could almost start this post with “It was the best of times it was the worst of times.” but I won’t. It’s been a very strange week though this much is true. First off for any that know me, or have read my bio, I live right outside Read the rest of this entry

Rainy Friday
It’s been an exciting week for me so far. I released book 3 on the 5th of April and after a decent start it took off and flew up the Amazon rankings to something absurd like 1196 on their charts. That Read the rest of this entry

Updates
In other news today…
Book three will be out next Friday April 5th! So make sure you pick up the first two books so you can jump right in and see how it all turns out in book 3!
I may have to adjust the type but that’s the cover to book 3, which takes up to the big apple this time!
I’ve also started my new project and I’m still working out plot details, but I have a few thousand words so far and I’m really enjoying it. It is not an After the Storm story. I don’t have a title yet but if I had to describe my idea for it right now I would go with Battlestar Galactica, meets Firefly, meets the space marines from Aliens. More on this story as it develops!
I’m also still working on the book 1 screenplay and a children’s book centered on Lily my German Shepherd
“I wanna be a star!”
Have a great weekend all,

Too Much Caffeine
As the title suggests, I think I had too much caffeine yesterday. As a result, I committed quite a few wanton acts of douchebaggery, mostly in the name of good fun. Although, Read the rest of this entry

March Madness
I know I’ve been a bit neglectful of my site the last few weeks. March tends to get a bit crazy for me though. Not only is it mine and my best friends birthdays a week apart. it’s also a few other close friends birthdays as well. Usually,
we all get together and have one big shin dig, but Read the rest of this entry

School Days
The last week or so has found me being very socially active, which is a large departure from the way my life had been for the past few years. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy seeing and talking to my friends. It just seems that the last few years I haven’t had a lot of time or money to go out very often. That, coupled with the fact that as we get older we tend to get busier with things and getting together with friends usually tends to be one of the first things to fall to the wayside.
I think what made this last week odd, to me, was that the people I was spending time with were friends from between 15 and 20 years ago. I don’t mean I’ve known them that long, I mean I haven’t seen or heard from some of them, in that long. It was very nice and a lot of fun catching up with my old friends and in some cases it took me straight back to when we were in school together and we just picked up where we left off. In other cases it was a bit different. I didn’t slip back into the old ways, since the old ways were not the most beneficial of things for my mental health. After spending some time chatting with this person, I smiled to myself and noticed that I felt no desire to go back to that part of my life for any length of time.
This all comes at an interesting time for me. My 40th birthday is in two weeks and I’ve been thinking about getting old a lot now, since according to most I am. To be honest though, I don’t really feel old and my life these days is so very much better than it was in my 20′s and 30′s. It was pretty fun though to spend an evening going by all the spots that we hung out at when we were in school. Back then, we worried about cops because they might find the beer (or other things) in my car. Now, we were worried about cops because three old men in a car, hanging out in the high school parking lot at 10 pm, looks REALLY SKETCHY!
I spent a great night cruising the town with the kid on the far left and the one in the very back. Oh and in case you didn’t already know I’m the floating head in the middle!
Enjoy your weekend all! Back to work with me,
Don

The Dark Tower series
I’ve always been a huge fan of the dark tower novels by Stephen King. I won’t say that I loved every single book in the series, but I did love the overall story. Recently, it seems that I keep coming across dark Tower related things. coincidence maybe, or is it just Ka. To be honest I’m not entirely sure and I don’t really care. I guess I’ll figure it out when I figure it out. Meanwhile, here is, I think, my favorite quote from any book…
I also stumbled across a Dark Tower wiki that I have to spend some time exploring now. here a link for your enjoyment as well. http://darktower.wikia.com/wiki/Can_Calyx
Now, that would be epitome of cool. Someday having an After the Storm wiki page! Yeah I know, keep dreaming.
Back to work with me,
Don
