I just finished watching the documentary, Deliver Us From Evil which is about the 30-year pedophile history of Father Oliver O’Grady who molested, raped and abused countless children in California from the 70’s and onward. The documentary shows how the Catholic church moved Father O’Grady from place to place, still allowing him to be in [...]
As I sat down to write yet another book, I found myself hearing voices in my head. The voices said things like, “Can you do better than Retaliation?” “Can you do better than The Blueprint for My Girls?” “Can you write better than you’ve ever wrote before?” I wanted the voices in my head to [...]
How do some people stay positive in the face of adversity? Have you ever met people who seem happy all the time? Well, how do they do it?

A day or so after I [...]
