Well I'm Kind Of Blown Away

I have spent some time going through the letters, emails and messages I have received from friends around the world over the last month or so endorsing my new book, "The Foundations."



I knew it was needed because I couldn't find anything on the bookshop shelves that really provided for the needs of a new Christian to grow in Biblical understanding of what it meant to be a Christian and what was required in order to grow towards maturity, however I didn't really think it was that…

Being an Odd Duck in Beaumont, Texas

Post from JR's notes-



In "The Long Road to Extradition," part of the plot involves Nicholas discovering his sexuality and falling in love. In the time reference of the book, being gay was still a very difficult subject for a small town to embrace of it's citizens. In fact, it could be downright dangerous. While the gay community has made tremendous strides in equal rights, there is obviously still alot of work to do.



There is a reason I portrayed the MC, Nicholas as gay. In…

Dad's hindering the royalty!

If it wasn't for my dad, I wouldn't be here.  Think about it.  Some forty-six years ago I lept from one of his testicles and swam like crazy to fertilise my mother's egg, and from simple biology classes you know the rest.  He worked hard to see that myself, along with my three siblings and mother were clothed, sheltered, and fed.  He's a quiet, taciturn type from whom I've inherited my relatively tall stature, and love of reading and cryptic crosswords.  But I do wish to the universal powers…
