Happy to announce that I am taking the trier with me on a book launch tour to celebrate the release of The Trier Goes to London, the second of the Trier novels, which comes out on National Coffee Day September 29th. #coffeenovelist #The Trier #coffee #indieauthor #coffelovers #Pete’s Press The Green Bean in Cumberland Saturday …
If you think I’m handy with the trier in real life, wait until I send it back in time to London in 1675. The Trier Goes to London will be available on September 29th, which just happens to be National Coffee Day. #coffeenovelist #The Trier #coffee #indieauthor #coffelovers #nationalcoffeeday2026 #Pete’s Press
I have struggling with coming up with ideas for posts recently. Not that I don’t have lots of them, it’s just that I don’t see the need to add to the clutter and chaos of everybody else’s lives via my blog. I mean, the few who do read the blog, all have lives to lead, …

Action Writing? So, my novels are residue? I’ll take that. I’ll take whatever …
I was finally able to revise and upgrade the cover of my first novel, Tripio. It had been bugging me for years, like something your doctor would mention at your yearly check-up. Not life threatening, or even painful, but maybe you should do something about it. And so, the process never made it to the …
I am on a break from writing, having just finished The Travels of the Trier. I would even use the word sabbatical, since I wrote Travels on the heels of The Trier goes to London, after writing The Trier, revising Ironjaws, revising Back outta the World, and writing Tripio. Included in all those were edits, …
