Behind the scenes

The "Process":
My process often begins with prayer and reading my Bible for motivation. I also draw inspiration from conversations with my wife and son. To get into a creative mindset, I immerse myself in fantasy books, fiction films, or sci-fi games.
Photos of my real writing space:
I do most of my writing at my computer, with my Bible always nearby for a bit of inspiration.📖
Scattered around my desk are notes and revision ideas for my books 📝📚—and for a fun creative boost, I’ve got a perfect view of my wife’s Harry Potter collection wall! 🧙♀️⚡
✍️ Writing Tips & Advice📝
My advise for writers:
I'm no J.K. Rowling or T.S. Eliot, but the best advice I can offer any writer is to enjoy each stage of the journey. Whether you're just beginning with a single concept or sending off your finished manuscript to publishers and literary agents, every phase—from imagination to publication—is a journey in itself.
Embrace it!
My Favorite Writing Tools:

Microsoft Word – A classic tool I still use for formatting and final manuscripts.

Grammarly – Helps catch grammar, spelling, and style issues during revisions.
-
The Bible – My go-to source of daily inspiration and grounding before writing.
