Greetings,

Apologies for not updating in a while.  In addition to wearing many hats – web designer, author, artist, video creator – I also struggle with severe chronic pain, neuropathy, and other conditions, most exacerbated by the years of narcissistic and legal abuse I suffered.  In working on my latest writing project, a non-fiction account of this experience, I finished transcribing my hand-written journal of that time, and had to take a break.  The emotional drain of having to recall those events is always an invitation for anxiety, depression, and PTSD, all of which were made worse over the course of the last fifteen years, and I needed to take some time for my mental health.

This is never a simple thing, as my very security is constantly in danger from such things as having my disability – my only income at this point – garnished by my ex, who most know has weaponized the law in order to cause as much financial and emotional damage as possible, a process that is condoned and indeed incentivised by the corrupt shit-show known as the family court system.   Fortunately, I have managed not to become part of the statistics – 21 men a week commit suicide in this country due to this very thing.  Just recently, my ex confirmed that she did not have a miscarriage (the story she used to induce a pity response and thus set the stage for a second attempt at separating me from my child), but had instead decided to screw a loser who worked in the auto parts store next to where she worked when we lived in North Carolina, and had an abortion.  Just another fun day of dealing with someone who at least one psychiatrist deems a psychopath.

Fun stuff, right?

This is pretty much par for the course these days.  Hopefully, things will improve with time.

In the meantime, I am aware there are still some issues with the website.  I will be working whenever I can to clean these up, and hope you will stick around to see the future changes.

More books and projects are coming…stay tuned, and thank you for coming to my TED talk, lol.

Until Next Time-
