Happy
New Year to all of my friends, family, and followers! Sincerely hope all of you
had as wonderful a holiday season as possible and that 2019 has started off
well and promisingly for you. Am very much looking forward to working and
spending time with the many personal and professional associates I have done
things with over the past year and to accomplishing even more over the coming
one.
This
year promises to be a busy and productive one for me and I have a few things related
to my activities that I would like to share on this start of 2019. First is
that I have resigned my position as a correspondent with the New Braunfels Herald-Zeitung newspaper.
While the work I have done for it over the past four years has been meaningful
to me — particularly my coverage of the area around Canyon Lake, Texas — for some
months I have felt that I was no longer having the impact on the publication
that I would have liked and that my efforts would be better devoted to other
endeavors. One of my shortfalls over the past few decades has also been my
inclination to try to do too many different things and I have decided at this
point to devote my time and energies to fewer things but to accomplish more
with them.
My main
two activities for the foreseeable future will my Skirmisher Publishing, which
develops and publishes games and fiction, and the Gnosis Project, a non-profit association
I founded in 2018 that was recently approved as a 501(c)(3) charitable
organization. You may have previously seen references to both of these ventures
on my page and you will certainly see much more over the coming months. I would
encourage you to follow the Facebook pages for both of those entities and sincerely
invite you to let me know if there is anything you want to know about either of
them. Suffice it to say that I am always generous when it comes to giving away
copies of things I publish or write to people who would like to see them, and
that I will be prevailing upon the generosity of others as I move forward with the
work of the charitable association.
