The First Publication of the Barnabas Press
Here is my first opus – Songs of the Prophets and the first in a planned series of three for First Tuesday Poetry.
Now available at your favorite bookstore.

The Second Publication of the Barnabas Press
The story recounted in the Diary of the End of the World takes place over a three and a half year period of time on an apocalyptic Earth. The diarist gives us a peek into his thoughts and experiences as he wanders across the devastation. He encounters another searcher and together they set out on a quest that propels them across the globe, seeking out people that are being called out to safety from the depradations of an oppressive world government.
Now available in ebook and paperback. (At 685 pages it has proven too long for print on demand printers for a hardbound edition – I may have to come up with other ideas to make it happen).
The Third Publication of the Barnabas Press
In 1740s London, a young chimneysweep runs away from his cruel master to search for the infamous highwayman whom he believes to be his father. He finds him, only to witness his capture. He then goes on a quest across the city to enlist anyone who will save the highwayman from execution. Help comes from an Evangelical preacher in a way and a manner that neither of them could have foreseen nor understood.
Peter and the Serpent is now available in all three formats – ebook – paperback – and hardbound.
The Fourth Publication of the Barnabas Press
Here with the book cover for Running Out of Sky I continue to mimic the screenplay form of blue card stock paper secured by brads at top and bottom.
The Fifth Publication of the Barnabas Press
A year has gone by and I now have launched the second poetry book in the First Tuesday Poetry series –
BODY LIFE
They are reflections on the Christian life – struggles in this world and walking in the Spirit. It is my hope that they will inspire the reader with the beauty of Truth and Faith.

(And check out Songs of the Prophets above (my first publication), now available in a second edition. When I added illustrations to BODY LIFE, I went back and added some to Songs of the Prophets).
The Sixth Publication of the Barnabas Press
Why would the High Fairy send Meribabell, a young know-it-all fairy, after a runaway renegade?
Something strange is going on out on the frontier of the Faerie Kingdom, and Meribabell runs smack dab into it, collecting friends and enemies along the way.
Everyone gets more than they expected. Can anyone say – dwarves, elves, pixies, trolls, and, oh yes, humans too (plus one mysterious wizard).

The Seventh Publication of the Barnabas Press
Two brothers just want to have fun, but the time is 1860 and their world is turning topsy-turvy, as their father has just been elected President of the United States.
This screenplay looks at the period of time in the life of the Lincoln family when they moved from Springfield, Illinois to Washington DC, and covers up to the start of the Civil War. Before they leave on the cross country train trip they have to find a new home for Fido, the family dog. And then come the adventures of living in a new place – the mansion of the White House.

The Eighth Publication of the Barnabas Press
My fourth book in the Performing Arts Series – this time switching from screenplay to stage play.
Carpenter Larry Durocher has been hired out of the union hall by the city art museum to put together the displays for avant-garde artist Norman Gorm. Larry is a born again Christian, and Norman a raging atheist. Fireworks ensue. Then, late one evening, one winds up dead and the other on trial for murder.

The Ninth Publication of the Barnabas Press
This is my third publication in The First Tuesday Poetry series. As in the first two, they have been selected from those poems I have put up on my blog the first Tuesday of every month since October of 2013 (and one from 1965). This time around they are more personal, relating to the people I love – my wife, children, grand children and parents (and a friend whom I consider family). I have also included many poems in the haiku form, a format that I have found to be wholly satisfying.
You can find your favorite bookstore from the link below, in all three formats – ebook, paperback, and hard bound.
The Tenth Publication of the Barnabas Press
With war looming between the two dwarf kingdoms, the High Fairy once again calls upon Meribabell and his friends to help. A dragon, hiding in the territory of the dwarves, must be tracked down. And its dragon egg must be kept from falling into the wrong hands. For if the adversary behind the undead trolls invasion gains control of a young dragon, he will be able to use it to discover the whereabouts of the Crack of Doom – the End of the Age harbinger entrusted to the care of the Faerie Kingdom.
Once again Meribabell’s ragtag band – fairies Rumble and Noralei, and the pixie Dunfallon unite with Merlin to protect their world from destruction. This time they have help from a new friend – Gibley the goblin.
