It seems like today is going to be a two page day since yesterday's page was published today by accident, sorry. A page a day and no excuses. Next month, I plan to continue this exercise until it becomes a habit and that habit become the next book. One thing I also need to do …

Not A Real Family (April Page 18 )
He's not your real father. So don't expect him to care. She's not your real kid so don't expect her to love you. Step-kids aren't really kids. And Step-parents are just playing a game that they can stop at any time. But my Papa loves me. He shows me everyday and has always got my back. Years …
Remembrance Day
I will wear my school colors today, because to today is Remembrance Day at Virginia Tech. In 2007, a student went on a violent rampage killing 32 people and then himself. It was a horrible day. The peaceful Virginia Tech campus was shattered and the world's eyes focused in on Tech. I am proud to …

April Page 5
Whether it is a cold or my sinuses, my body has been sending very direct messages. You are sick. You need to rest. Why aren't you resting? Sleep, you need sleep. Oh and by the way, until you give me what I want food will lose all favor. And it did. Well mostly, I …

The best laid plans of mice and men always need to have a plan B waiting in the wing no matter how well conceived it may have been. 8:30 on a Saturday morning with pencils sharpened and a fresh pad of paper, I was ready to rediscover my love of math. Two hours later, I …
April Page 3
So what is happening in April with all these pages? Everyday in April, I am writing a page a day. No excuses and no delaying or trying to make up pages after the fact. A page a day. Simple right? If it were that simple then my next book would be out by the end …
