Hidden Mythics II Update #4

Some experiences stretch us more than others. Some books require more fortitude. So far, HMII has required more of me than any other writing project to date. I love this story. Sometimes it makes me bleed. Which makes when I pass a milestone all the sweeter. I finished the Alpha edit on HMII last week… Continue reading Hidden Mythics II Update #4

How We Learn

Coastal Navigation

There's the age-old question in school, "When will I ever have to use this in real life?" (Like school isn't part of real life too. But that's a thought for another post.)
