It’s Official, I Lack The Ability Of Dumbing Myself Down A few weeks ago I officially signed up with an on-line Freelancing service that allows you to submit proposals for a laundry list of writing jobs, as well as other creative endeavors. Every single job that I am 1000% perfect for has either been A) … Continue reading Does Creativity Pay?

The Day The World Changed & How I Changed With It…
The world was irrevocably changed on September 11th,2001. Lives were affected globally. People cried and mourned, and unfortunately in certain countries, some people celebrated what they felt would be the demise of America. There’s a special place in hell for people like that, and I don’t even believe in a heaven/hell concept. There’s really no … Continue reading The Day The World Changed & How I Changed With It…
Writing Is Something…
For the record, I always give eye contact, unless you happen to be reading over my shoulder while I write, and then I might just knock you out. That's one of my biggest pet peeves. Never stand behind a writer!
Emotionally Bad Days
I don't care how positive you are about life, or the world at large, an emotionally bad day can, and will, screw with you.

Greetings!
Hello lovely people. I last wrote about character death. It's not going so well. It's not so much the writing as it is my anger. Sometimes writing out your personal anger/issues is very therapeutic (not to mention, cheaper), and sometimes it is distracting to the point where you find that you spent 20 minutes organizing … Continue reading Greetings!
Prepping Character Death
This weekend I am going over my notes for book four. Yes, it has a title. No, I'm not giving that information out yet. As I go over my prep work, I realize that it's a pivotal time to start killing off some annoying characters. I recently wrote a fight sequence I am incredibly proud … Continue reading Prepping Character Death
Finding Work As A Writer
Finding Work As A Writer Depending on what your skill-set is, finding work as a writer isn’t easy. Like many writers, I am not classically trained. I liken it to the fact that I’m not classically trained to cook either, but I still kill it in the kitchen. To clear up the difference between being … Continue reading Finding Work As A Writer
