edit data

Working currently as a programmer for a small technology company on the east coast of Canada. Who would have guessed that programmers knew how to spell and write in complete sentences?

I'm currently writing a series of novels about the rising of the dead, with my first book having been published in August 2015.

I have always been fascinated by finding ways of scaring myself through the books that I choose to read and write about. ...more

Re-publishing my book

I just finished updating and editing my first book The Dead Rising: The Beginning and putting it out to all of the major ebook retailers.

After publishing it the first time I had found, after 6 months, that Amazon had gotten the wrong copy of my book. The reviews were terrible and I did not understand why. I downloaded the book and found that it was an early, unedited version of my book.

Albert’s Quotes

“Before, as soon as I came home from all sorts of places I would sit down and write in my journal. Now I want to write you, talk with you... I love when you say all that happens is good, it is good. I say all that happens is wonderful. For me it is all symphonic, and I am so aroused by living - god, Henry, in you alone I have found the same swelling of enthusiasm, the same quick rising of the blood, the fullness... Before, I almost used to think there was something wrong. Everybody else seemed to have the brakes on... I never feel the brakes. I overflow. And when I feel your excitement about life flaring, next to mine, then it makes me dizzy.”
― Anaïs Nin, A Literate Passion: Letters of Anaïs Nin & Henry Miller, 1932-1953
