Well, everything is a go. My publisher has approved distribution of Mendre: After Hours Vol. 1 Anthems for March 1, 2012. I’ve also been notified that it may take up to six weeks for all 32 digital distributors to pick it up across all regions, so when it comes out, if you can’t find it in your area on your favourite digital distributor, please be patient, it will show up.

Roc’s Rule #372
o7 is the universal greeting used between military pilots. It is also the universal symbol for a male being serviced.
Roc’s Rule #371
You’re worth it, you beautiful snowflake.
Self-Entitlement, snowflake
I’m not often one to repost other articles, but this particular piece almost sounded like one of my rants, so I am compelled to share.

Roc’s Balls
I am continually amazed by the hate mail I get after controversial posts. The trend is easy to identify. More often than not, those that agree with my position comment on the post without hesitation. Thank you for that. There are even those that disagree with my position on an issue, and will post their counter view with respect, inviting intelligent debate. Thank you for that as well.

The Lie of Cardio
Ok, so I’ve been at this for a few years now. That doesn’t make me an expert just from time spent, but I’m not one of those people that does anything, or believes anything, without fulling understanding everything surrounding it first. Here’s a short list of my experiences: Continue reading
He’s so Roc: Pilot Episode
Words can be compelling when well written, leading the reader along on an engaging journey that the author controls. Yet how do we measure our success as a writer? Often times, our readers inject their own ideas into our stories: what the characters look like, how they sound, the visual surroundings, the music, all of it is subjective to each individual. This is part of the appeal of good storytelling, our ability to relate to the subject matter. It is also why many movies and television shows fail. For the most part, we are handed everything and asked to follow along. A good script will have twists and turns, leaving us guessing as to what is going to happen, or finishing on a cliffhanger to hopefully engender enough interest for us to return to the next showing of the subject matter.

Roc’s Rule #370
Feed a fever. Starve a cold. Drown a problem.
Speed Racer
I miss the Renegade, I thought to myself, as we inched through space.
Inched was a relative term, and I had quickly come to remember how much I detested civilian class vessels. It had been a long time since I had worked with a private corporation, and it was proving tiresome already.
My primary responsibility was to identify, redefine and implement every process within the corporation, from accounting to project management, to pilot training, and everything in between. Continue reading

I’ve been part of DV501 for nearly three years now. It’s a well paying gig, and the work isn’t that bad. The guys enjoy ribbing me, as I am still the new guy, but all in all, they’re pretty solid; there when you need them most. Continue reading
