"To Boldly Go Where No One Has Gone Before."

Happy 42nd Anniversary Apollo 11!

Get Well, Jenna!

I'd like to express a very special Get Well wish for my friend, hard-rockin' Jenna Enemy. She was struck and injured by a moving vehicle last week while rescuing her dog from being hit.














That makes Jenna a hero to me. She's like Wonder Woman--only cuter and she can play a mean bass.

Hope you're up and at 'em soon, Jenna!

My View of the Future --Today

Sitting here in my new studio, inside our new house, still feels rather dream-like. I'm full to bursting with creativity, and there simply aren't enough hours in the day for all I want to write.

Most oddly inspirational to me is that the Minnesota State Fair's 330 foot tall "Space Tower" is practically in our front yard, and can be viewed from my studio, the kitchen, the bedroom, and our backyard deck.













Once things are a bit more in order I'm snap some photos to show. For now, here are some pics of the Space Tower so those not in the Twin Cities can see what I'm talking about, including a view of our neighborhood as seen from on top of the structure. In fact, our house is in this picture. That's the Saint Paul skyline looming in the distance.















I'm thinking that eventually a gorilla running amok needs to climb this.

Happy July 4th

Happy 4th of July!

Today is also special for me because it's my parent's anniversary.

Dad--hope you're celebrating in style today...that's what Mom would've wanted from all of us.

An ERB Trilogy Begins

A pre-production illustration by artist Will Meugniot for an officially licensed property by the estate of Edgar Rice Burroughs, to be illustrated by Will and written by me.

Can't mention the name before the press release, but I will drop the hint that this story is part of a very popular trilogy of ERB novels. Published by Sequential Pulp Comics, an imprint of Dark Horse.

Coming in 2012!
