I am a finally getting around to posting this introduction! What can I say, “I was busy…” I’m Chris and a good friend got me intrigued with the potential of HiVe so I thought I’d give it a shot. I am currently both a published author and recording artist with a total of 8 album released in two genres, although currently I am only pursuing the singer songwriter/rock genre. My published novel is called Unexpected Crossroads and can be found at most major book retailers online and also on Audible. My band name is Sucia Rosa and We released our forth album last week called The Last Stop. Needless to say with all that going on I stay busy, on top of that I have a beautiful family of 17 years and four awesome kiddos (3 boys and 1 girl) ranging from 15 to 9 in age. I work full time in ministry and do counseling on the side. It’s difficult work, but we’ll worth it. My goal on Hive is to create original content: short stories, “Thoughts of the Day”, and possible some music. I’d also like to develop community with other creative people and help to support their efforts. Thanks for reading if you made it this far and say hello in the comments of you would.
