I find it interesting how two people can see the same thing but come away with different perspectives on what happened. For example, studies have shown that when investigators interview witnesses to a crime, they often end up with wildly different explanations of the event. And it’s not that the…

Recipe – Lentil Stew
I try my best to eat healthy, and that includes eating vegan at least once a week. I’ll admit, it took some getting used to, but now I actually look forward to it. So yesterday I decided to make a big pot of lentil stew. I ended up with enough…
Richard’s Kitchen – Beer Bread Recipe
I’ll admit that I’m not much of a baker, but lately I’ve been trying my hand at making bread. One of the easiest recipes I’ve found is for beer bread. Simple, fun, and you can toss in some additional ingredients if you’re feeling creative. The recipe is posted under the…
The Prometheus Project Podcast – Ep 36 – Making Music
I think we all have music inside us, but we may not know how to tap into it. Join me as I talk about making music, about finding your inner rhythm, about expressing yourself with sound. It doesn’t matter if you have a talent for it, all that matters is…
Don’t Give Up
Why is it so difficult to keep oneself motivated, but so easy to simply give up? I think it’s because we’re often wired to take the easier path. I get it. Obstacles can be difficult to overcome. It’s much less trouble to simply say, “the hell with it”, and move…

A fellow writer and chef has posted an interview with me on her website. It’s wonderful when artists and writers support one another. Check out the interview here… Nosh with Chef Julie
Being Different
Growing up, I heard a lot of “why can’t you be more like your brothers”, “why can’t you just act normal”, and “what’s wrong with you.” I was the creative one in a family of athletes. Obviously, I was the odd one out. For the longest time that bothered me….
Review – A Quiet Rebellion: Restitution
This is the second book in M.H. Thaung’s Numoeath trilogy, the first being Guilt. Oftentimes, the middle book of a trilogy is the weakest. Not that the stories aren’t good or well-written, but they’re usually used as a stepping stone to move the story along to the third book. I…
The Struggle is Real
Being creative can be fun, exciting, and entertaining, but it can also be a struggle. I know first-hand how hard it is to sit down in front of a blank screen (or blank sheet of paper), have it all planned out in the brain, but trying to get the words…
Flawed Heroes
I’m not a fan of perfection. To me, it’s boring. Perfection means never making mistakes, always making the right decision, knowing the answers, always having an elegant solution. I’ve read a fair-share of stories that had these seemingly perfect characters and I usually find them boring and repetitive. I can…
