Okay, folks, I’ve been giving my writing project some thought. I’ve come up with a name for this story: “The Heir.” And I’ve also come up with the characters. But I’ll turn it over to myself to explain further. … You heard me. If everything goes according to plan, the…
Not just Wordcount Wednesday, but Ash Wednesday as well. I hope you all got your ashes in church tonight. … That sounded better in my head just now. I honestly didn’t expect to make a lot of headway this week. The beginning of Lent is a very busy time for…
I got some new fan art from someone who really enjoyed Failstate. Rochelle contacted me a few weeks ago with a lot of questions about the writing process. She also told me that she was making a Failstate t-shirt. I asked her to send me a picture of her wearing…
Last week, we saw how Jonah wound up running in the opposite direction when God called him to go preach to the city of Nineveh. It’s kind of understandable that he did; the Assyrians weren’t exactly the most loveable of people. Given Jonah’s understanding of God and His grace, he…
It’s been a long time since I recommended a book, hasn’t it? It’s not that I haven’t been reading. I actually have. Quite a bit, as it turns out. I just haven’t taken the time to stop over here and write reviews or recommendations. So to make up for my…

It’s been a while since I’ve done this. I could go through all the excuses or reasons why I haven’t done this. Part of it has been because I hit something of a dry spell in terms of writing. Part of it is because, well, video games. But in…
Like I said last week, Jonah the prophet is sort of unusual in terms of his ministry. He’s very much an anti-prophet and he doesn’t behave as he we think a prophet should. Maybe that’s understandable because of his unusual call. Most prophets were called to deliver a message only…
One of the stories that we tell our kids in Sunday School is that of Jonah and the whale. It seems tailor-made for children: a dramatic storm, a friendly whale, even a worm and plant. It’s a great story. But if all we see this as is a story for…
I know I’ve been teasing that I would end this series for a while, but these story arc posts took longer to do than I anticipated. The Death of Romulus idea kind of took on a life of its own in my imagination. But I figured we’d have to discuss…
