Recently I received a very good review of my novel, HECKEL CASEY (amzn.to/Riz4UU). The reviewer said that “the characters are believable, even the supernatural ones.” My first reaction was awesome! What a great compliment. I wanted to be sure to do it again, but first I had to figure...

When we are very young our dreams are pretty simple. They might include a new bike, a new toy, or ice cream for dessert. As we enter our young adult years, our dreams become much larger and center on career, family, travel, money, etc. It’s as if we are standing on a shoreline overlooking a vast...
