To anyone who visited my website already, thank you and a big apology. The place is more like a house on moving in day. Stuff scattered. I didn’t realize things would be happening as fast as they did. So here I am and I’m still unpacking stuff.
My name is Jack. I am a husband to a wonderful wife who has put up with my writing/exploring hobby for twenty one years. We want to keep the whole family side private so I am going to try hard to protect that. I’ll just say we have five incredible kids, some grown and some getting there way too fast. We have a five month old dog, a golden retriever named Norman who just wore me out trying to coax back inside after dozens of stick throws.
I am an architect, design mostly churches. Although banks, shopping centers, homes, and lately overseas projects like an orphanage in Egypt and a hospital in Kigoma have kept me busy.
This blog site is centered on a book I finished after five years of cramming in between meetings and drawings. It is called Second Sight if you haven’t seen the cover yet. It got sent down the page because I don’t know how to keep it at the top yet. Sigh.
Excuse me Norman needs his toy squirrel thrown across the bedroom.
Second Sight is getting published. After nineteen years of trying, 185 rejections, a book I wrote is getting published. If you are trying to write and got discouraged, keep trying. Talk to me. I would love to encourage you. There is no better feeling after pushing and trying till you thought you’d rather jump out a window than to read an email that says, “I will publish your book in a heartbeat.”
Norman retrieved something from my trashcan. Hold on.
He swallowed it. Guess I’ll find out what it was later, hopefully outside.
My (Thank you for taking me on and believing in me.) Agent and my brand new (Can I kiss the ground you walk on) Publisher have been on my case to get this page going.
So this is my first blog entry. I understand you are supposed to be professional on these things when you are an author. I don’t know. I have never been good at following rules. I am going to try just writing for a while. If nobody shows up to read it and gags on what I wrote, I’ll morph into whatever professional is supposed to be. Maybe.
My main reason for the blog is to record my predictions of what is waiting to be found out there underground and under the ocean. There is an entire city waiting to be found under the Caribbean for example. It is buried under fifty to three hundred feet of Saharan sand depending on when the last hurricane came vacuuming by.
There is also a giant chamber (four hundred feet long and twelve stories tall) buried 917 feet under the middle pyramid of the Giza Plateau group. Probably another about the same depth between the Moon and Sun pyramids at Teotihuacán Mexico. These are not tombs. They would be libraries, if my research is right. The one in Mexico is probably empty given how many manuscripts and art pieces were shown to Hernan Cortés before he slaughtered the Aztecs and destroyed almost all of it around 1521. The one in Egypt might still be intact. I think it is because the access stone left by Manetho is still in place.
I promise to explain all this.
Thank you for reading this. More tomorrow. Happy New Year.
