I had the pleasure of being the photographer for Cleveland GiveCamp 2026. Lots of volunteer IT work was done for area non-profs by crazy-smart volunteers & dedicated support staff. Only one 1 photo was taken of me - from behind - while I was shooting. Links to GiveCamp & the photos in [More]

This is the crew of volunteers who made Cleveland GiveCamp 2026 happen! Note that the blank computers screens represent people who attended and programmed remotely. Someone is working on inserting screenshots of the remote folks for the final version.

Jonathan Knapp, GiveCamp Leader took this picture while giving me horns as I shoot a group photo of some of theGive Camp volunteers. I think this is the only official shot of me and I generally like it that way

The cover of the book "Songs of a Befuddled Muse: 13 Tales of Divergent Inspiration" by William Cohen-Kiraly. The cover features a beautiful woman with flaming red hair opening a book. Out of the book and curving around her is flying a musical staff with notes but also drawings of a serious clown, a woman and a dolphin swimming around each other, an hour glass against an executioner's axe and an image of death as a hooded skull checking phone messages.

The gap between effort & results in publishing is real & it can mess with your head. You can do everything right & still not see it. Some have marketing support & reach, many indie & small press authors don’t. Don't walk away too soon. It takes time & the payoff rarely shows up early. #AuthorSky

Liz May Brice, my #audible narrator is fantastic. When screening auditions, most were ok. When I heard Liz's audition, I sat up in my chair, slack-jawed with my eyes wide open. She is THAT good! And I thought I needed an american male voice... befuddledmuse.com or Audible for sample.

Head to waist photo of a beautiful, long, raven-haired Liz May Brice, leaning slightly forward, in a white sleeveless blouse. Brice is the Audible narrator for "Songs of a Befuddled Muse."

The cover of my book, entitled “Songs of a Befuddled Muse: 13 Tales of Divergent Inspiration” by William Cohen-Kiraly. In the foreground is a beautiful Muse with red and blue hair that trails into fire and into clouds in space. In Front of her is a book with open pages at various angles and from the book, swirling around the muse is a musical staff that twirls around the muse and to the top of the book cover. Swirling along this musical staff are notes and musical symbols. Interspersed within the notes are four cartoon images representing stories in the book.
-One is serious clown in a bowler hat with a flower and a round ball on his nose. He is looking down pensively.
-There are a woman and a dolphin circling aroud each other underwater.
-There is an antique hourglass sitting in front of the head of a pike.
-There is the head and cloak of death punching the keyboard on his portable phone.
The background of this cover is a scene from space with stars in the background and in the upper left corner is a planet with a moon.

One of the most popular stories in my book is "The Big Gumshoes" in which a clown PI investigates the murder of his friend and mentor. Along the way, he finds love, battles a corrupt side show and solves the mystery of the dog left at his trailer door. befuddledmuse.com Amazon, Kindle and Audible.

I have always loved reading. My fixation with current events has pulled me from books as it did in 2015-20 . But now I am forcing myselt to spend time with books to keep my sanity and it helps my sanity. I chose two GREAT ones for now: Reading "A Discovery of Witches" and listening to "Hail Mary"

Cover of the book "A Discovery of Witches". The cover features a background of a stylized night sky over the night scene of a university towards the bottom. Across the nigh sky are what looks to be sketches of magical symbols insice circles and connected by line. The text on the cover says "#1 New York Times Bestseller", new line, "Deborah Harkness" then in fancier lettering across the night sky "A Discovery of Witches", in small type, "A Novel" and at the bottom "Book One of the ALL SOULS SERIES"

Audible Book Cover of the book Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. Cover shows Ryan Gosling from the movie in a space ship with wide open eyes, glasses hanging from his ear. On this cover, he is shown from waist to head (in a shirt) but angled down from upper left down to middle right as if viewed from an angle. The cover also says "Only From Audible" and "Read By Ray Porter" and "Now a major motion picture starring Ryan Gosling.

Went to used bookstore today. Shelves are looking sparse. Asked the old lady owner if they're closing. They're not closing, she said they just can't keep books in stock because they're flying off the shelves faster than they're coming in.

A small ask from an author: if you’re an avid reader and you pick up a book from a small press or an indie author, please consider leaving a review if you enjoyed it. Even one or two sentences makes a difference. You have no idea how much that means. #AuthorSky #BookSky

Listening to "Hail Mary" by Andy Weir. What an absolutely great book! I am so jealous of Weir's ability to imagine such an original plot line and such a fascinating alien race. Can't recommend too highly. So glad I am reading this first rather than seeing movie first.

You would think that after working for decades in marketing tech, I should know better how to market my own book. But I have a lot to learn and I am delving in here again to see if I can get the word out for "Songs of a Befuddled Muse," my book of odd, divergent and speculative short stories.
