Coming This Winter

In lieu of a nano-stream this week, I have some exciting news for everyone. Over the last couple of weeks, I have been working with Xulon Press to get the first installment of Seven Words into print. I am pleased to report that the manuscript is now undergoing editorial diagnostic review, the first stage in the publication process. So, thank you to all fans, contributors, and visitors of The Potters Clay Life site for allowing me to get this far. I hope to make an official announcement of the publishing date within about a month. This means that if all goes well, books will be available this winter, so stay tuned!

I will return next week with another Nano-Stream story snippet to wet the pallets of my fans and visitors alike. Remember, each story is tied directly to the main series, allowing everyone the freedom to explore a world before purchasing any of the books. So, whether you’re a casual observer or a die-hard fan, enjoy the ride, and God bless you all.

News: A Child’s Next Steps

In loving support of my child, who is bravely entering the world of small business and local artwork, I want to provide a shout out to her Grand Opening notification on Instagram. Christ’s love encourages us all to support one another and show kindness and love towards everyone. In fact, He made it a point to say that even those who do not share our love of Him show good will toward their children. How much more then, should those who love Christ support the hopes and dreams of their children?

The stars of heaven declare the glory of God, though they have neither temple nor savior (Psalm 19:1). Therefore, I want to take a moment to thank God for the beauty that he gave to me by supporting local artists and creators that He brought into my life – my child and her mother.

News: Seven Words Updates

Greetings from the Author of the Seven Words Series. I have exciting news for everyone who has been a fan of this labor of love. The project is on schedule for its release this fall. Beginning in June I’m going to do my best to commit to weekly updates on this site for my fans, you know who you are! My intention will be to publish at least 1 of the 7 books each year while continuing to support the fans and expand the world with Nano-Stream stories, artwork and more.

Here is a sneak peek into the work done so far.


  • Book One – Storge
    Enters into final edits and review by my chosen publisher, Xulon Press, this fall. The goal is to have the book in stores for Christmas 2025!
  • Book Two – Phileo
    Is in manuscript development and at about 30% complete.
  • Darbles: This simple dice game is featured in both Book One and Book Two, although originally intended as a story element, backed by popular demand of my truest fans two prototypes of the game have been made, will be featured in Book Two and are in playtest phase. If all goes well, this game will be made available to fans on my upcoming online merch store.
