Songs of Shadow: Tenebrae
I haven’t really written a lot of music lately. It’s been a stressful season, if I’m being honest. But this past year, at our church’s Tenebrae service, I found myself even more affected by the scripture than usual. The invitation to not just slow down but STOP… to put everything aside and breathe in sadness, sit in despair, embrace grief and loss…
It hit different this year when I myself was in a season of loss…
On AI and Fear
I’ve been thinking a lot lately…
… about the very vocal and passionate push-back against AI from younger folks (primarily college-age adults). The internet is full of clips from commencement speeches right now […]
Book Review: The Wheel of Time
Author’s Note: I wrote this review back in 2015, when I was an editor and contributing author for a media review site that no longer exists. It was a fun time and a great crew […]
Saturday Socks

I love stories. I’ve always loved stories.
Stories are how we make sense of the world around us and how we express our own experiences. Everyone has a story and those stories define us.
I’ve worked with a wide range of clients to help them tell stories–from global leaders in the automotive and communications industries and GRAMMY award-winning artists to small churches and local businesses. Every single person and organization that I’ve worked with has the same need: they need to tell their story. The stories we tell (and the stories others tell about us) tell us who we are and what we’re capable of.
This site is where I tell MY stories.
These stories are mine. They’re stories about the world around me and, sometimes, they’re stories about me. Here you’ll find fiction (mostly sci-fi and fantasy), poetry (sometimes defined very loosely), reviews, and essays about stuff on my mind. This is my playground–the old-school kind with super tall monkey bars and rusty swings–so explore and have a good time.
Be careful, though, the slide is metal and gets hot in the sun.
Stories are who we are.
These stories are who I am.
So, what’s YOUR story?
