It’s been fun writing about Rachael and my adventure at Tough Mudder and I will continue that soon. Last weekend I was off camping with my family, but I have returned and I am getting back to the daily grind. After all that sunshine and fresh air, I am looking forward to being inside. The heat wave we are having is also a good reason to stay inside. Yesterday got up to 106. YIKES! Our camping trip was quite the hoot. I spent three hours cleaning the house, two hours packing, and we drove to a KOA ten minutes down the road in the next town. Still felt like it was a world away as we swam for hours and did all the fun activities that KOA’s are known for. Now it is back to the real world thank golly, because we all got a little fried.

For fans of “Dune”, “Ender’s Game”, and “Star Wars” comes a new character-driven space opera…

Determined to be true to himself, and test the limits of his abilities, sixteen-year-old Cris escapes his stifled life of business and politics on Tararia to begin a new life exploring the stars.
When Cris unexpectedly receives an invitation to join the Tararian Selective Service (TSS), the only organization to offer an official telekinesis training program, a new future awaits. It’s his dream opportunity to be among people like himself, free from the Priesthood and political objectives. Except, Cris’ path was designed, and he’s right where the Priesthood wants him.
Architects of Destiny is the first installment in the Cadicle series, a modern-day space opera epic in the spirit of Heinlein, Herbert, and McCaffrey.
