It’s always fun to find old story notes hiding in the back of drawers. These scribbles are from 2016/2017, and are the first inklings of what I hope to be a series of stories from a fictional island called Little Grove Key. #WritingCommunity #kidlit

I present to you the inspiration for “No!” in all her sassy, defiant glory.

I just found out I'm a longlist winner of the November 2024 Tadpole Press 100-Word Writing Contest!

Out of 1,576 entries I was one of 268 to be selected for the longlist. I'm pretty proud tbh, this was my first writing contest, and even though it was only 100 words, it was still very challenging.

Watching your children grow up is the most amazing thing you’ll ever see, but don’t blink or you may miss it.

Gosh I love fatherhood.

The Trop, our baseball team’s stadium, lost its top in a hurricane this past October, and I’m titling this photograph “t(r)opless.”

Please laugh.

No one recalls the last time something remarkable happened on Mesa Grande. That is until, the planet's sheriff and deputy ride out to investigate a body. The only problem? The body is the deputy's.

Good morning #WritingCommunity. It was high time for a little coffee date with the youngest and my inspiration for “No!”

Spoiler: she did not say “no” to a croissant.

Hi, I’m Daniel!

I’m a storyteller living in St. Petersburg, Florida, with his wife and two daughters. I am currently focusing on children’s picture books but have lots of tales bouncing around in my head. Please feel free to hit my inbox. I’d love to chat about #KidLit !
