How news travels around the world is nearly as interesting to me as the news stories themselves. Yesterday there were rumblings on independent media outlets about a Mexican researcher unveiling one thousand year old alien corpses discovered in 2017 to the Mexican congress.
Now, almost twenty-four hours later, the story is finally being reported by American mainstream media outlets, like CBS
It’s taken mainstream media all those many hours to officially report on something that (if true) could be one of the biggest stories of modern history. It’ll be interesting to see how it develops from here but from additional information making its way into the news this seems like it could actually be legit.
Is it true or just a hoax or distraction? Time will tell or, more likely, we may never really know for sure.
What's your take on this? I want to believe.
Anniversary (and an upcoming give-away)
This next thing is far less sensational but in just a few weeks I’ll be celebrating the tenth anniversary of the completion of my sci-fi novel Alarm Clock Dawn.
I remember the ocassion like it was yesterday, it was an autumn afternoon and my wife and I went to a local restaurant and celebrated. Here’s a recent photo of the exact booth we sat at that day in 2013.
We had oysters and champagne with our entrees that day. The event in itself felt deeply momentous but I couldn’t even have imagined how much that book would change my life a few years later.
When I get back from Ireland I’ll be giving away three autographed copies of Alarm Clock Dawn here on Hive to celebrate the occasion and as a thank you for all of the support you’ve shown me seen 2016. More about this giveaway will be announced very soon.
I’m going to keep this post short today but I’ll be sharing lots of photos and stories from the Emerald Isle very soon.
Thanks for reading! All for now. Trust your instincts, invest in you, live boldly, and take chances.

Poetry should move us, it should change us, it should glitch our brains, shift our moods to another frequency. Poetry should evoke feelings of melancholy, whimsy, it should remind us what it feels like to be in love, or cause us to think about something in a completely different way. I view poetry, and all art really, as a temporary and fragile bridge between our world and a more pure and refined one. This is a world we could bring into creation if enough of us believed in it. This book is ephemera, destined to end up forgotten, lingering on some dusty shelf or tucked away in a dark attic. Yet the words, they will live on in memory. I hope these words become a part of you, bubble up into your memory when you least expect them to and make you feel a little more alive.
Pick up a copy of Ephemera today on Amazon.
Most of us have experienced a moment of perfect peace at least once in our lives. In these moments we lose ourselves and feel connected to everything. I call these mindful moments. Words can’t describe how complete they make us feel.
These moments are usually fragile, evaporating in seconds. What if there was a way to train your mind to experience more of them? It’s deceptively easy and requires nothing more than a subtle shift in mindset. My new book, Mindful Moments, will teach you to be much more content despite the chaos and imperfect circumstances continuing to unfold around you.
