and his attempts to see the world even more differently!

as I travel on the odyssey of an author and storyteller.
Welcome to the place where every day is an adventure!

The Rhythm of the Writing Quill
Dear reader, it took me a minute to decide what to write to you about this month.
As a quick update on things, I have two projects in the pipeline. One is the audiobook for Letters of a Wind Walker. That is still in recording with the narrator and should be done this month, hopefully…

The Rhythm of the Writing Quill
April 2026
I figured I’d write to you about a more fun part of my writing adventure, music!
If you think my odyssey is odd, just wait until you hear about my playlist. Some authors like to listen to certain types of music that match either their genre or the mood of their scene. In part, I do that too. However…
March 2026
I’m really close to one whole year of being a published author, and during that time, I’ve discussed my books with family, writers, and readers like you. In those discussions, I found that I have a somewhat unique aspect that is a foundation for…
Focus, the art of Now and Forever
February 2026
Once again your Odd Man wanders a bit to talk about the nature of focus.
What is it we should focus on both as authors and as people with all the distractionws nowadays?

Whoops, I guess it’s time for updates
January 2026
We’re in 2026, and now it’s time to choose what we’re going to do now?
Last year, I released two books andan audiobook (both of which are available using the links on my bookshelf page *wink*), and this year…
December 2025
While I have few quick and exciting updates to share, I want to talk about something else.
Instead of book and writing updates C.R. seems to stand for Captain Random this month because I want to talk of the nature of dreams!
November 2025
An Odd Man’s Odyssey has officially reached one year, and what an adventure it’s already been.
Thank you all for reading my short monthly posts, and I’m happy to say we still have much to look forward to.
October 2025
Writing and publishing my first book, that was the conquering of my first mountains.
Now, I can see that the mountain I’m about to climb isn’t like the last one. More than what I can see, however, it’s what I can’t see that bothers me…
Whoops, I guess it’s time for updates
September 2025
I kind of took the past month and a half off and fell into the trap of procrastination. It happens.
Still, this gives me a good time to give all of you updates on my upcoming projects.
August 2025
Dear Readers, how big is your world?
Do you measure it in feet, inches, kilometers, days of travel, or is it merely too big to imagine?
“C.R. this is an odd question. Also, why do you say ‘your world’ like you aren’t a part of it?”
Wondering of the
Wandering Wonder
July 2025
Many people think of an adventure as being driven by progress that is ever moving toward a goal, but true odysseys are not so straightforward. All along the way, we are slowed not only by obstacles but by the attraction of wandering wonder.
June 2025
On my writing Odyssey, now that I’m moving from publishing a book to selling and writing again, things are becoming a matter of once again walking in wide open spaces. You weren’t with me last time I was here, so let me describe this place to you.
A Wild Month of Winds and Wonders

The odyssey of writing so far has been a mix of slow climbs and steady walks, but last month (April) was a month when your local author faced a few storms.
And so the Adventure Continues…
April 2025
Odysseys, dear readers, have many landmark moments and I’m approaching one now.
It’s April and that means this month is when I plan to release my first book.
March 2025
I don’t know about you, but the beginning of the year burdened me with worries. So, I want to tell you about what I’ve learned about having hope on my Odyssey.
February 2025
We’ve all heard the phrase “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,” but this time from the Odyssey I want to talk about the times we try to convince others that the beauty we see is all there is to see at all.
January 2025
This latest post from the Odyssey is about the dangers of doubt that come with every new year and how they have affected me personally as an author.
Why Do People Climb Mountains?
December 2024
In this entry, we explore how the challenges of writing and publishing are like climbing a mountain. And why, if climbing a mountain is so hard, we face them anyways.
