So I seem to be unable to avoid things like social commentary, movies, and visual mediums in addition to writing. So with that in mind, I’m changing the format of my blog. Now, not only will I tackle writing, but pretty much anything geek-culture-related (Yay me!) Oh no! Does this mean that you won’t be giving out writing advice? Hell no! Getting emails from … Read More Lucifer: Best Show in a Long Time

Rather, the Kingdom of Heaven is within you.” – The Gospel of Thomas Book I Before … Read More Divinity Sample Chapter

Hi Jim, I just finished reading Soul Siphon and really liked your character, Mary. As I kept reading, she started talking about historical events that she was involved in, namely the Jack the Ripper killings. I’m not a history buff, so I decided to google the Whitechapel killings to get a little context. To my surprise, you took Mary directly from the history books! … Read More Writing History?

There seems to be a rather annoying trend… I won’t say recently because it’s been going on for years, which is why it’s getting annoying. This trend is something we see in all mediums and it follows the same basic formula: Bad Guy + Nazi Imagery = Effective Villain. That’s right… is your bad guy lacking in back story? Are they just not cutting … Read More The Nazis are Bad!

Oh God… you know, I get the impression that I will not be leaving this theater with dry cheeks… On one hand, its because this is Hugh Jackman’s last appearance as Wolverine. That alone is enough to make a respectable fanboy cry. This is a rare form for an actor as he has faithfully portrayed the character and gave the role his all, … Read More LOGAN: Wolverine 3

So no one really asked me about this one, but it was a question that I thought I’d pose. Since most of my stories have a good vs. evil, religious, element to them (no they’re not preachy!), I thought I’d bring this up. How does one write the devil? Is there a right way? Is there a wrong way? Well… honestly I don’t know. … Read More Writing the Devil
