Welcome

Hello friends-and welcome.

So I wrote this book called Stalemate: A Clockwerk Thriller (now available on Amazon ).

Stalemate was the culmination of several years of work and a lifelong dream; a dream that existed even before I realized what it was. I started this website you're looking at as a way to tell people about the book (and, subsequently, about myself). But it won’t just be about me and my writing. I'd love to talk to you about authors we're reading, the best graphic novels, movies and TV, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, firearms, cooking. . . maybe even some middle school softball (my kid usually plays third base). I love meeting and speaking with new people, and I'm down to chop it up with you about almost any and everything.

OK-so lots of stuff just got mentioned above. But in the interest of saving the best for last, I neglected to speak on one very important thing. . . and that thing is you. The greatest story ever written is nothing without someone to read it. So I’ll be depending on you for feedback (both good and bad), questions, and comments. To put it simply? I need y’all’s help. Just as that proverbial greatest story ever written is nothing without someone to read it, an author is nothing without his or her readers.

We’re about to go on a journey, my friends. One I hope you’ll enjoy as much as I will. So grab your gear. Get comfortable. And strap in. Oh- and don’t forget to pack yourselves a lunch. We’ll be gone a while, you see. We’ve got entire worlds to explore.

Wishing you all the very best of everything,

Thomas
