Writer & Artist
It’s been a minute. A couple changes are coming. For starters, I have taken down the poetry page. I haven’t been writing as much poetry in the last few months as I have been focused on my forthcoming novel, title TBA. I have made it to the second round of the NYC Midnight Short Story competition and I am excited about that. Working hard on this end. Thanks for coming by.
Check back for more updated on the new novel, hopefully, it will be out in time for the holiday season ‘26.
Welcome to 2026.
I know I keep saying I am going to update this thing more often, but you know how the holidays roll in and suck away all of your time and routine. Well, I am here now with a new poem and some news. The news is as follows, book four is coming along and I am working with some really good people and editors on it. It hits close to my heart and will be an intense read. I’ve written fifteen chapters thus far. Please keep checking back and go and read A Green Sonnet in the poetry section of this page.
I have a bunch of new stuff to add to the site, hopefully, I will find the time later today, but I wanted to drop in and say Happy Thanksgiving. It’s been a really busy and fast moving year, and I don’t know about you, but I could use a day off. Check back for more later.

Strange times out there. I hope everyone is okay. I updated the poetry page with two new ones. I hope you like them. Head over to the books page and pick up a copy of my latest novel, Ghost in the Head. Happy reading.
I am sitting in a coffee and it’s just after 3pm. I am slightly surprised how busy it is, though it is mostly filled with high schoolers still wearing backpacks after their first day of school. I have added some new poetry for your enjoyment. My poetry as taken on the role of a journal it seems like, so if you are following along, just note, I am hopeful.
New Poetry added.
For the dog days of summer, my schedule has remained uncomfortably busy. I barely find time to read and write these days, but I have managed to write a few new poems, one of which I just added to the Poetry page called Flowchart.
More publication news coming soon.
Whoa, two updates in a week. It’s small, but I added a new piece of poetry called On Standby. Check that out, I think you’ll enjoy it.
Also, check out Ghost in the Head in the books section, it’s really good, I swear.
Head over to the books section and check out Ghost in the Head, where comedy meets tragedy and what’s all the seems harmless is only steps away from mania.

It is here and been added to the books page. Curious to know more about the novel? Here is the synopsis: Ghost In the Head tells the story of two unlikely companions who meet at a nearly empty open microphone comedy show. Barret in his twenties has the world in the palm of his hands, and Thomas, married and on the verge of divorce, is having a mid-life crisis. Through comedy, they form a bond then the real story begins to unfold for both of them, one ending in tragedy and the other, lost and found again. This novel is a true emotional journey with laughs, and twists, true-crime, and turns throughout. The third novel by Nicholas Baldwin, this is a must read for all people dealing with addiction, trauma, anxiety, and depression. It shines a light on everything that lives under the surface of the ordinary person, the stories that make us all extraordinary.

I was writing over the weekend, and I found myself not writing, but rather listening to the indie band Modern Baseball. In the background, the television was carrying the LA Dodgers game and the feeling of springtime washed over me. It felt nice. I did eventually write. I posted a couple of new poems. Let me know what you think. Check back soon for updates. April will be a big month.
