WRITING
Carried Away rests in a stack of 195 pages, awaiting revisions. I hope to publish it on Amazon at some point in 2022, but there's no hurry since the story still needs a bit more grooming. The audience will be young adult and a blurb will be coming out shortly as well as some concept art for both the cover and the story itself.
During the winter of 2020, I was on some pretty strong medication which allowed for vivid dreams and Carried Away came to life. The pandemic allowed me to write the first draft and I found myself hooked.
OPTIONS 38 WAS A NON-TRADITIONAL PATHWAY TO GRADUATION FOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS IN LEWIS-PALMER SCHOOL DISTRICT 38 FROM 2006 TO 2017.

SOCCER ARTICLE EXCERPT
“The Person Inside the Player”
I loved this phrase the first time I heard it a few weeks ago while watching a segment on NBC Sports Channel. The EPL had just wrapped up and they were featuring “The Southampton Way”. Southampton is a gem of EPL clubs in the United Kingdom, with one of the best player development schemes in Europe.

LIFE UPSIDE DOWN
January 2022
This summer, my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. We are grateful that it was discovered early and that she has a good prognosis. All our efforts now focus on helping her get through this battle. We are so proud of her, she will endure chemotherapy through next year, although the worst of it will be over in the next month. If there's one thing that we've learned, it is that there's not near enough information out there to guide women and their families through this ordeal.
