Since I started FILLING BLANK SPACES in 2013, with this being the beginning of a new year, I am making my annual post to let everyone know what creative works I have available for your reading pleasure.
Sadly, 2019 saw more writing than publication except for here and
The Free Choice E-zine.
Previous blog posts will help you track the current progress of SHERLOCK HOLMES: THE ADVENTURE OF THE UNIMAGINABLE and the SOLITAIRE novel.
But there is news on the PENDING front!
"Changing Horses", the short story I wrote in 2014 for Sean Taylor's HOOKER PUNK anthology is now scheduled for publication this year! 😁 More details when available.
COMPANION DRAGONS: KIRI'S QUEST from 2018,
HUGH MONN PRIVATE DETECTIVE BOOK 3: FEMME FATALE from last year, and THE FAMILY BUSINESS short story I wrote for the proposed STRONG CITY anthology in 2011 are all still pending at Pro Se Press.
HUGH MONN, PRIVATE DETECTIVE BOOK 3: FEMME FATALE RELEASED ON AMAZON IN BOTH PRINT AND KINDLE FORMAT JANUARY 15, 2020 FROM PRO SE!
But the official announcement wasn't made until January 19.
Although mourning the loss of his beloved wife, Jim Beard still has my ZEPHYR LILY story I created last year for his 1970s anthology that I also contributed some editorial assistance on, so when the time comes on that project...

😕Yeah, I can see the "dwindling output" over the last couple of years too, but if you factor in the PENDING material coupled with my editorial work listed above along with being Editor-In-Chief of
The Free Choice E-zine plus how time consuming writing can be when done properly...
In any event, everything already published is available on
Amazon via
my author's page, and I hope you enjoy my past, present, and future creative endeavors.
