⭐🔷⭐ ANNOUNCING THE “GRAND OPENING” OF DAN’S NEW ETSY STORE – CALLED ‘VINTAGE CITY ART – PRINTS’ – Most of you know, I’ve spent the last 18 months taking a “Deep Dive” into Old New York City, researching and writing my last 2 novels which are set during New York’s fascinating “Gilded Age” (Early 1900s). In some ways, it feels like …
I WAS ON ANOTHER PODCAST this week – This time it was A Writer’s Day Podcast with host Ruth Douthitt. We had a great chat about book stuff, things I’ve learned along the way.

My wife Cindi and I just got back from watching Reagan at the theater. I’d already heard good things from friends involved in the production that raised my expectations somewhat. Fair to say, this movie exceeded those expectations…by A LOT. I was not prepared for the emotional impact I experienced as the story unfolded. Tears welled up in my eyes …
Yesterday afternoon, my wife and I watched the new Indiana Jones movie: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. I really liked it. To me, the first one (Raiders of the Lost Ark) was the best of all. Didn’t like the 2nd, at all (Temple of Doom), then liked the 3rd one almost as much as the 1st (The Last …
⭐♦️ MEET OUR NEW FINLEY – Sadly, we had to say goodbye to our beloved 10 year old dog 4 weeks ago. A week later, we went online looking for a new puppy and saw this wonderful little guy (already named Finley by the Breeder). He’s helped distract us from our grief, for sure. Not sure I believe in signs, …
Friday was a very difficult day for my wife Cindi and me, heartbreaking is a better word. Most of you know, we are both serious dog lovers. Have been since we met (married 45 years, have never been without at least one except the first 6 weeks). Friday marked the end of a “Doggy Era” for us. We had the …
We’re only 2 weeks from the release date for The Longest Road (my new novel), which is a sequel to my bestselling book, The Deepest Waters. Don’t know if you’ve read the first book. If not, now’s a great time to get it (only $3.99 on Kindle, Free on Kindle Unlimited). Even if you have read it (but it was …
Can’t believe it’s been 2 months since I updated my blog. Been very busy. Not just with the holidays but with the release of my new novel, Rescuing Finley (Book 1 of the Forever Home series), and all that goes along with marketing and promoting it (I’m an indie now, have to do all the things my publisher used to do …
I am so proud of my wife. Here’s one of the reasons why. Five years ago, my wife and I had a pivotal conversation about her future. We had just officially become empty-nesters. I said, “For so many years you have done everything for everyone else: you’ve raised our kids, even homeschooled them, ran our household and even held down a …
This has been a very big week for writing awards, especially Christian fiction. On Sunday, AWSA announced the winners of the Golden Scroll Awards. Then on Monday at the big ICRS event in Orlando (which is still going on), the finalists for the ACFW Carol Awards were announced, as well as the winners for the 2015 Christy Awards. But these …
