I’ve been working a lot, unfortunately NOT at writing. This sucks! I think last week I only managed to eke out just 5 hours writing, I’m so serious. This has got to change, I have mass writing work to do. March is crunch time, I just have to do what I have to do I [...]
I need to start selling to mainstream magazines. This is a market I keep meaning to tap, but haven’t out of sheer laziness LOL. No, more like resistance to forcing myself to write a certain way, go through all the pitching and what-not. But some mags pay $1,000 an article (or more!), so seriously I’m [...]
I’m big into manifesting my dreams, making my ideas real tangible things and happenings in my life. One thing I’ve been wanting to do for a while is conducting an annual workshop for writers that’s focused on using life experience in fiction and non-fiction writing. I want it to be class-room style for part of [...]
I wrote at night for years, just years and years, when my kids were small. Now they are way big, ages 19, 14, and 11, and I actually sleep at night. I do the bulk of my writing now in the early morning during the week and on weekends mid-afternoon to early evening. Flexibility is [...]

This helps you to stand apart from the crowd and it is the spark of originality that people are looking for. Sure, there are other writers who can technically write better [...]
Writing is not a hard job physically like construction work or factory work, but it can be physically draining. I love being a writer but I am often surprised at the physical aspect of it. Sometimes after a productive morning of writing my shoulders will hurt, my hands are cramped up, and my legs are [...]

Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand-and melting like a snowflake.
~Marie Beyon RayLife is a big canvas, throw all the paint on it you can
~Danny KayeTwenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the things you did do. Throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
~Mark TwainFollow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls.
~Joseph CampbellI'm sick of chasing my dreams man, I'm just gonna ask them where they're going and hook up with them later.
