What’s in a Name?

Revisiting an old challenge in the name I publish under.

The author and one of his sci-fi novels.

I debated this notion several years ago. Just after I began to publish on Amazon, it became a mountain I needed to climb.

The issue at hand is the name I publish under.

I write in three distinct genres — publishing online in two of them. While yes, the content writing, blogs for others, and the like that I do freelance still has my name — it’s less important to that.

For online publishing — blogs and books — I write fiction and nonfiction.

Most of my fiction aligns with sci-fi and fantasy in some way or another. I have The Source Chronicles and the standalones Infamy Ascending and Vortex Pilgrimage in fantasy; The Vapor Rogues, while Steampunk, touches elements of both fantasy and sci-fi; and the Void Incursion and Forgotten Fodder series both are firmly rooted in sci-fi.

My nonfiction generally falls under a mix of self-help, inspiration, mindfulness, conscious reality creation, psychology, philosophy, positivity, and the like (I am uncertain about a single, clear definition of this). The You Are Amazing books are intended to offer to the reader multiple concepts to help live life as fully as possible. The blogs I publish are all related to the above-mentioned nonfiction concepts.
