My BiHaG is to finish 3 books by the winter of 2025.

My October BiG (Big Goal) is to complete 16,000 words on my books in addition to my other activities:

Silence to Singing—10,000 words (Book 4 and final of the Christian sci-fi Soul’s Warfare series).

The Judge’s Dilemma—4,000 words (A legal thriller with coauthor Xavier DeSoto)

Both-And America—2,000 words (A nonfiction book in the proposal stage.)

I’ll let you know how it goes!

Meanwhile … Rate & Review Book 1, The Hot Marble, in the Christian sci-fi Soul’s Warfare series!

I’m writing plotted-out chapters on the sci-fi novel, Silence to Singing. My latest chapter introduces the archenemy, Lord Tahei Charon aka “Karl.”

He’s suave and smooth and handsome and ruthless as a dagger. He’s also leader of The Horned Edge, a pervasive threat to Earth that has infiltrated all areas of society.

Karl has raised up armies to invade the United States; those are poised to begin the offensive.

Karl’s biggest fear involves my main character, brilliant young physicist Lewis Brahmindura.

Lewis has everything going right at his tense moment in history. He’s about to get married to his true love Deirdre; he’s nominated for a Nobel prize for his work on gravitational resonance and teleportation; and he is about to embark on fully funded time travel research. His task for national defense: To capture Karl and throw The Horned Edge into confusion.

Yes, Lewis seems to be doing fine … until Karl moves first.
