Published

Picture

These be the rapscallions finished and now lurking in the markets.
Watch out! They come disguised in ebook or paperback formats.

WIPs

Picture

These rascals be still gamboling in the author's mind.
Take care of yourself! They can drive you mad with impatience.

Full List

Picture

O brave explorer, ye seek to take on the whole lot of varmints?
Fare thee well! I have no advice for a valiant adventurer such as ye.

Out of Print

Picture

These poor blokes have been pulled off the shelves to prepare for the new.
Tread with caution! The new are shown with the old herein - do not mix the two!

Fairy Tale Inspired

Picture

As a lover of fairy tales, I must warn the explorer:
These stories resemble the original tales like Hollywood biographies resemble the reality.

Coming of Age

Picture

When whippersnappers grow, many a lesson is learned.
This happens not at the same age for all, for people grow at different rates - like trees.

To Die For

Picture

These stories yield a lesson that's killer.
But don't worry, I never write tragedies.

Swashbucklers

Picture

These heroes fight to win, no matter what it takes - or how long.
When enemies call, these answer with swords in hand! (Or other weapons at hand.)

Epic

Picture

'Nuff said? Many titles under one heading.
Beware, or these tales may have you wishing their worlds were real.

Nonfiction

Picture

Rare, but potent. These stories pack a wallop.
They may be small, but their size does not reflect the immensity of the lessons they hold.

Mild

Picture

Suitable for tykes and tots - if they can read.
No more intense than a Disney movie. Take that as you may.
:-)

Medium

Picture

Suitable for older kids and maybe a tyke - if they are accustomed to stronger themes.
Adventurers beware! You may find yourself liking them more than you expected.

Hard

Picture

Hard to read at times. A good ending, of course, but difficult parts and mature themes.
My books will NEVER have explicit scenes nor obscenities.

Severe

Picture

Could include scenes of torture and loss of hope.
Characters are pushed to the end of their limits - and find God there.

Unsorted

Picture

These little doggies are unlicensed. Someday they'll find a home.
Includes nonfiction stories and certain untitled stories.

Romance/Action-Adventure

Picture

They all fit under this category, but some do not have fantasy - those are included here.
Trailblazers beware, the lack of supernatural does not mean a lack of derring-do!

Fantasy

Picture

This is for the explorers who never tire of discovering new lands, new ideas, new dangers.
Pathfinders beware, imaginations may be stoked! Once kindled, they are hard to quench.

SciFi

Picture

For those who like tech, herein are the tales that are impossible without it.
Wayfarers beware, for the tech may make you want to start inventing!

Nonfiction

Picture

Personal stories herein told as if we're sitting down for a chat.
God inspired these, so be prepared for power (not mine).

2019

Picture

A couple of nonfictions.

2022

Picture

Another nonfiction that is very personal,
a life testimony and collection of poems
.

Plainly Stated Explanation of Categories

Status - Books are grouped by stages of production.
  • Published - These books, in one form or another, are available for purchase.
  • WIP - These books have been started but are not finished quite yet.
  • Full List - Includes Published, WIP, and books that are still merely outlines or thoughts.
  • Out of Print - Some of my books were published too early. A good learning process, but now they have been or are being updated, often with new titles and fresh covers.
Theme - Books are grouped according to plot type.
  • Fairy Tale Inspired - These books are not necessarily retellings of fairy tales, but aspects of them might remind readers of certain familiar stories.
  • Coming of Age - These books are all about the development of the main characters and their growth from childishness to maturity.
  • To Die For - Very special books. These unique stories are retellings of the ultimate plan of redemption.
  • Swashbucklers - Adventure stories. These books are less about one individual's growth and more about the challenge(s) the main characters must overcome.
  • Epic - These books are fun. In this category, there are many stories within a single series.
  • Nonfiction - I love writing fiction because I learn best through fiction; however, sometimes I just need to process what I'm learning in plain speech.
Intensity - These books are grouped by their emotional impact, how difficult they are to read... in other words, how likely they are to make a reader cry.
  • Mild - Lighthearted fun. May still contain violence. In these books, the characters will face challenges and will overcome them with a cheerful heart, good courage, and bonhomie.
  • Medium - These books may introduce more mature themes, including doubt. The main characters might wonder at times if they will succeed in their mission(s).
  • Hard - These books include difficult topics intended for mature readers. For a detailed list of potentially sensitive topics, see each book's individual webpage.
  • Severe - Very difficult to read at certain points, very likely to make soft-hearted readers cry. Whereas "Hard" will tell of difficult events, "Severe" will show them.
  • No explicit scenes or obscenities are in ANY level of my books.
Genre - These books are grouped by what section you might find them in the library.
  • Romance/Action-Adventure - All my fiction books basically fall into this category, but these have all-natural settings. No starships or magical powers allowed.
  • Fantasy - These books are my favorite. As for what is possible, the sky's the limit... or is it? These might include extraordinary powers, unreal creatures, impossible landscapes, etc.
  • SciFi - I am no technological genius, so most of my books do not include tech. However, these do... to a degree that is far beyond our society's current capabilities.
  • Nonfiction - 'Nuff said. See explanation above under "Theme."
Date - These books are grouped by the year they were published.
  • Year - Pretty self-explanatory.
  • If you are looking for one of my books and cannot find it here, you might check the Out of Print section under "Status."
