  • Mad Rush to the Finish Line

    Hello, hello… … And a hearty welcome to my fans and followers. I’m not sure there’s much more news I can share since my last post. But I can offer a few gems that many of you might find interesting. So, let’s start with the least exciting and work our way up to the most.…

  • New Look for Desperate Times

    Yeah, Weird Title. But You Know Why I Chose It. If you don’t, let me clue you in. But first—by now you’ve noticed my blog got a bit of a facelift. Like it? No? Let me know! Seriously. Hit that contact page. If enough of you holler, I might just switch it again. Second Verse,…

  • Been Too Busy to Post

    For Those Diehard Fans I haven’t updated my blog in a year, and I apologize for that. But I’m not even sure if anything I say is worth saying regarding my writing. Wait. There’s one thing. There is still a part of me that wants to write the great American novel.  And although it’s been…

  • 2024 Is Here And I know, I’ve Neglected My Blog–Sorry!

    2024 Is Here And I know, I’ve Neglected My Blog–Sorry!

    RE-CAP: It seems, and once again, it’s been another year since my last post. So, if anybody is still interested, I have only one word for you: Sorry. As the quote goes, “Life is hell, and then you die,” seems to make sense for me as I get older; and perhaps, less wiser. I’VE LOSS…

  • Wow! It’s Been Over a Year!

    Dear Fans: (If I have any left) Time does fly. It’s hard to believe it’s been over a year since my last post! All I can say is that I’ve been busy.  And yes, I’ve been writing too. But I am mostly going crazy, and messing around with a bit of farming. And yes, more…

  • New Changes

    My New Year’s Expectations It can only go up: My eldest son and family couldn’t make it for the Christmas Holiday; for health reasons, I’m rethinking what I want to do from now on; and although, I finally published, An Artificial Christmas, in paperback, the e-book will have to wait, and so started 2022 on…

  • Happy Holidays, With a Footnote

    Not a Profitable Year With somber tidings to all, may 2022 bring us better times? We pray it does. I for one, intend on re-evaluating what I’ll be doing professionally next year. The book publishing division within Jacabo Studio is not happy with sales. And my best guess, they’ll be cutting back on advertising and…

  • Great News: I’m Done!

    BluBerrie: The Botanical Gardens is published! You wouldn’t believe the stress level that comes with publishing three novels at a time. I certainly didn’t, until now! So no need to go over all of the old war stories and report; all I know is that I enjoyed writing it for my young readers in hopes…

  • James O. Youngcliff – Hard At Work

    A Nice Pat on the Back Given the Covid-19 “detour,” I’ve found succulents growing in a dark corner of what most consider a lack of inspiration. So, I can now report that my current fantasy/mystery/horror manuscript for YA is in its last phase of rewrite. “Whee, for me!” you say? Thanks. But not so fast.…

  • The Writing Goes Slow and Steady

    Hello World Yes, I’m still alive; Covid-19 hasn’t hit, thank God, and the Moderna vaccine. I have just dropped out of the blogging gig for a while. Personal issues have taken quite a bit of my time lately. But everything is fine now, and so is my writing. The final chapters of my current YA…
