In a previous post, I made a statement about using your fear as fuel to propel you through a task. In my case, it was to move forward full-steam ahead with writing the sequel to Pangaea: Unsettled Land. I had mentioned plowing through a draft no matter what, but some things are best left on […]

Using the Fear: Where Is the Pangaea Sequel?
If you’ve read my first book, Pangaea: Unsettled Land, you may be wondering where the sequel is and if there will ever be one. You may be excited for the upcoming release of its prequel, The Auctorati, but for some of you that may not cut it. You want to jump back into the lives […]
In the Endgame Now…
This past week, I watched Avengers: Endgame, had a blast at Philly Black Pride, and inched even closer to final edits for The Auctorati. Here’s how everything went.

Pangaea Character Illustrations
Pangaea: Unsettled Land is my first fantasy novel and I’m excited to reveal the artwork for my characters. I wanted to do this to give people a better idea of what to expect from the story. I also wanted people to see that this was a very diverse cast. After posting a call for illustrators […]

The Original (Cringe-Worthy) Idea for Pangaea
I just took a look at an old journal where I wrote my first entry about nine years ago. Back then, I was in college, had just finished final exams, and had a positive outlook on the possibilities of my future. I had an idea for a website for submitting music to record labels, and […]
The Auctorati – A Prequel to Pangaea
*Update* This project is currently on hold. Find out why! A lot of readers of my first book asked when or if there was going to be a sequel to Pangaea. I’m at the point now where I can say, “Yes”, but with a caveat. Before I get to continuing the story of Slade, Douglassaire, […]
Pangaea Pronunciation Key
If you ever read a fantasy novel, you know that words can sometimes look like gibberish. I wrote Pangaea: Unsettled Land to read a bit easier than what you’d normally expect, but in some cases I couldn’t help but come up with outlandish names. Sometimes when you make stuff up, crazy things come to mind. Here’s a list […]
Here’s My Book Cover!
It’s finally done! Here is the cover for my first novel, Pangaea: Unsettled Land. It’s been over a month in the making (mainly because of my perfectionism), but I’m so happy to finally have a great visual for my story. Believe me when I say that you’re in for a wild ride when you […]
