December 6, 2020 – Hey! While most of my work world lately has been focused on getting other writers’ books published, I did take some time out to focus on a bit of author work again. The big thing that both my wife and I did along these lines in the past few weeks was... Continue Reading →
November 6, 2020 – Running a little bit late this month. I blame technology. Never mind that my education level when it comes to the particular type of technology that bogged me down the past week to 10 days was , let’s say … not high enough to employ the technology to its greatest benefit....

September 1, 2020 – It’s basketball season again! Well, sort of. It’s in a bubble and it’s only the pros finishing off a COVID-delayed year in front of no fans. It’s baseball season … finally! Sort of. It’s basically only the Major Leaguers, and they’re playing in front of no fans … well, sometimes cardboard... Continue Reading →
Well, we finally did it. A few months after being asked to be interviewed for a podcast centering on true crime, Undoing Evil's first episode went live last night (Aug. 13) featuring me and my first book, Murder in Wauwatosa: The Mysterious Death of Buddy Schumacher. That book tells the story of an 8-year-old boy... Continue Reading →
August 2020 Monday (Aug. 3) is my birthday. You don’t have to get me anything. It’s OK. I understand. You’re busy. The whole mask thing has you upside down and inside out. I’m not that important. All of that is totally understandable. But, since it’s my special day. I’m going to treat myself. After my... Continue Reading →
July 2020 Is the year half over already? Yes, it is. There’s your answer right there. Now, you don’t have to search the inner recesses of your brain to recall how to do math … nor do you have to locate a calendar and count the months. You’re welcome. I’m sure many of you are... Continue Reading →
June 2020 For someone who had my entire calendar wiped out by the coronavirus two months ago, I sure have been busy lately. Author events, craft sales where I can sell books, dentist and hair care appointments bit the dust. Fantasy baseball drafts got postponed. Concerts, plays and comedy shows were all nixed. All of...

While this quarantine/lockdown/Coronavirus thing is still throwing a wrench into people's lives, and likely will be for a while, I thought I'd share a few things I've been doing, and also have planned, to while away my time (It did not take a long while to figure out how to cram all those "whiles" into...

Found out this morning that "Wicked Columbus, Indiana" has made the top spot on Amazon's Indianapolis Travel Books best seller list. I am fairly certain that neither of my books have ever maintained the No. 1 rank on any of Amazon's lists. The paperback version of the book has shot up the lists in the... Continue Reading →
I don't often view the best-seller lists. I did when my first book was published in 2012. It was kind of fun checking the charts every few hours to see how many thousand spots my book had risen or fallen. I'm a stats guy (a former sportswriter). Now, I look maybe once a week or...
