First Sketch of the Burnt Ones from Souls Triumphant
This is my first sketch of the Burnt Ones, Ned’s army of evil doers. Without revealing too much, they are much more than they seem at first glance.

First Sketch of Ned from Souls Triumphant
This is my first sketch of the incredibly handsome, and villainous, Ned from my novel Souls Triumphant.

Think Again by Adam Grant – A Book Review
I chose to read Adam Grant’s Think Again after hearing Angela Duckworth mention it on No Stupid Questions. In Think Again, Grant challenges the reader to reconsider the thinking process.

Tenet – A Movie Review
I wish I could say to you that Tenet is an intellectual masterpiece, that Christopher Nolan has broken with cinematic convention to such a degree that he has essentially reinvented the medium, and that the story is so complex it works as the equivalent of a Russian doll. I wish I could say all of…

Star Wars: Light of the Jedi (The High Republic) – A Book Review
I must admit that I wasn’t that excited to hear about “The High Republic” campaign. This new Star Wars onslaught is set 200 years before the prequels and explores the Star Wars galaxy at a time when the Jedi were at their most powerful and the Republic was at its most efficient. I call it…
