I’ve got some high expectations for the coming year and while I’m trying not to think about the fact that 2022 could be interpreted as ‘2020 too’ I also respect that to-do lists are guidelines more than hard and fast rules. The reason I say that is because I’ve got quite a lot planned forContinue reading “2022: I’m Looking At You”

Better Made…But Made Better
So I love the whole sweet/salty combo and, while I’m still on a weight loss journey, I will buy myself a tin of these every year. The tin should last me till the new year as it doesn’t have much in it and I’m having maybe one chip a day. That being said, while BetterContinue reading “Better Made…But Made Better”
Mother Nature Really Went ‘Hold My Beer’
Errant thoughts hold more power than we realize. A careless idea here or there can have very real world consequences. To what, you ask, am I referring? It’s a matter of snow. I had a date last Saturday night at the Detroit Zoo’s Wild Lights and passively it occurred to me that a little snowfallContinue reading “Mother Nature Really Went ‘Hold My Beer’”

ALLLL BYYYY MYYYSEEEEEEEELF
So I see a lot of posts in the writing community about having to make massive cuts to their work because they wrote too much. Which is a very desirable problem to me because I have the exact opposite problem. I finished the first draft of my Work In Progress and it clocks in atContinue reading “ALLLL BYYYY MYYYSEEEEEEEELF”
From the Top
Writing a book is a funny bit of business. It starts with an idea, oftentimes a seemingly nonsensical idea, that would lead a layperson nowhere. But as a writer, it is your job to plant that seed of an idea and nurture it, till it grows into a story. But you can’t stop there becauseContinue reading “From the Top”
Did I Really Write a Love Triangle?
I’m not one to judge when it comes genre preference. If you like Twilight, read Twilight. If you like bad writing, read 50 Shades of Grey. Ok. Maybe I judge a little bit. But I do appreciate books like 50 Shades because, if something like that can become an International Best Seller, then there’s hopeContinue reading “Did I Really Write a Love Triangle?”
