Holy crap! An update (at last)!

Its time to post a way overdue apology for not posting regular updates to my blog, so here it is: I’m sorry… there, now it’s official and I can get to the business at hand. The main reason why I’ve been absent from regular blogging are the many writing projects I have in the works, as well as the numerous articles and regular feature columns I’ve been writing for pagan/paranormal magazines and websites. I am now a regular contributor to Circle Magazine (http://www.circlesanctuary.org/circle/) and the UK’s Paranormal Magazine (http://www.paranormalmagazine.co.uk/), and I write monthly feature columns for Ghostvillage.com (http://www.ghostvillage.com/) and The Wiccan Pagan Times (http://www.twpt.com/). I am also working on two new nonfiction books and doing research for a full-length novel (yes, I’ve lost my friggin mind). Combine all the writing projects with paranormal investigations, regular coven meetings, running my business, making public appearances, spending time with my wife, eating, drinking sleeping, and well, I think you get the picture! It’s been a crazy ride to say the least, but never a dull moment for sure.


So for anyone who’s been wondering, that’s what I’ve been up to. I must also sadly report that my Mother and Grandmother passed beyond the veil this summer in less than four months of each other, and that did a number on my mind and spirit as well. This last year offered up many good things as well. Our good friends Tim and Tina graced Becca and I with a wonderful trip to Disneyworld in Orlando, Florida in July. The trip was an absolute blast, although I question the sanity of going to Florida in the middle of summer. “Hot” and “humid” doesn’t begin to cover it!

I will try to keep posting regular updates as time permits, and will share news for the new books as soon as I have final confirmation on publishers and release dates. Thanks for being patient with me, and keep the supportive e-mails coming. Hearing from readers makes this crazy gig worthwhile!
