Crimson Veil is now available, in hardback, paperback, and e-book. Thanks to everyone who made this possible and God for giving me the tools to spin a decent yarn. If you are still on the fence I have included thoughts from those who read it first.

The pitch for my new novel…. “Down Among the Sinners.”. It’s is a Southern-Noir (as usual) slow-burn, about duty, legacy, and the violence of moral compromise. A former Navy pilot returns to his rural Alabama hometown when his estranged younger brother is arrested for the.

This is true, but the Protestant denominations that founded America are largely non existent. There is about as much in common between Colonial era Anglicans and Baptists as there are between Catholics and Protestants.
I love my Catholic friends dearly, but denying that America was settled, founded, and built by Protestants is almost 1619 Project levels of historical revisionism

All I know is that every time I quit I come back to it, and I feel like I can breathe again. Maybe my books will never mean anything but I write because I need to. There is no other reason at this point.
I’m about to crash out yall. I just can’t figure out why I or anyone else should keep writing. Does the world need a new short story or essay or book?.The most dedicated writers I know are complete doomers. They do it to do it and they know/act/accept that it’s futile. I’m being.

In many ways Millennials are just Boomers with a software update.
Oddly the parallels between the old counterculture and the alt right are so deep that the phrase "Oldhead" was actually coined to describe *them* and we just picked it up.

This is a fair criticism, but the average Catholic is not cheering on open borders or mass immigration. I grew up in evangelical circles. I’ve heard perfectly normal people say the most deranged things about Catholicism and the supposed prophetic destiny of Israel, full-blown.
@JSlaughterEsq @AuronMacintyre I understand this point of view but you should also understand how Protestants feel when the Pope advocates for unlimited third world immigration into our countries.

We will burn the literary longhouse to the ground and salt the earth.
You can write the next Blood Meridian and still get rejected by a 24-year-old assistant with a Xanax addiction and a sociology degree.

I go out of my way to say most Evangelicals bear no ill will toward Catholics or Orthodox and then this happens. This has to be a test….
Hamas and the Vatican are in bed together. They both lied about the church destruction and the deaths in order to drive a wedge between Israel and the Biblical Christians that stand with them.

Young men bring the energy. But without older men to steady them, they’ll burn out or veer off course. Wisdom is the moderating voice and it is one only acquired through time.
My beef with the fire breathing right-wing influencers has always been that they whip up their audiences into such a fury that it leads them to set fire to their personal lives like this. All for nothing but brief emotional satisfaction at the cost of long-term pain.

The way someone reacts to the subject of ‘class’ will tell you more than an hour of conversation.

Had an IT guy at my old company that used the hammer and sickle as his Teams photo… he never got fired.
it'd be more acceptable for someone to be fired for being too fascist if there was like a single example of someone being fired for being too communist.
