When readers discovered my science novella, “Gravity Of The Game” (hint: you can get it for free up top this site by signing up for my mailing list), the commentary. I received the most was “I don’t love baseball, but it’s very clear you do, and I loved this book despite not being interested […]

JDA Books Presents a Year of #FearlessMen

Beginning this summer, meet a new generation of #FearlessMen who […]
What You Missed In #MisandryInPublishing Last Week Will Shock You
Misandry in publishing is very real. It’s a women’s game, as I produced evidence with in science fiction, a genre with a false-perception that it’s the only man-controlled wing of publishing, last year. What happened when I called it out? The president of the lone trade guild in science fiction, SFWA, actively tried to destroy […]
Robert A. Heinlein Is J.K. Rowling

Civil Rights Aren’t Just For Groups Of People You Like
The entire concept of civil rights is that they apply to groups of people you might be uncomfortable with over their identity. It’s a civil right because it’s a right that is due every human. “This doesn’t apply to x group” goes against the very essence of what civil rights really are. In an effort […]

He Is Risen
For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, This is of first importance, and don’t forget it.
