I was snooping around on Twitter and found some interesting arguments about writers. Someone said that all writers should write what they know and not write about anything else. I thought that was a very strange thing to say. There was a bit of a counter argument, but the "write what you know" posse was … Continue reading What You Know vs What You Don’t

What’s Up With Me
Psst...you wanna know what's going on in my head?
Cut the Bull…Ain’t No Excuse
I hear the whining. I hear the blah blah and I think sometimes writers live to come up with reasons not to write. "I'm feeling overwhelmed..." "It's this damned pandemic..." Stop. Just stop.

I’m ending my class in my major of Creative Writing and I appreciate all the feedback I’ve received. I also appreciate my Professor and my peers. My Professors … Continue reading Appreciation
What’s Up With That?
I had two different people look at my writing. I got two entirely different opinions. One said I needed to leave historical references in the story. The other said to take them out because they were understood to be in the story. What to do...what to do.... Yeah, sounds about right This has been happening … Continue reading What’s Up With That?
Guess What?

However, here’s a huge tease of what I’m working on...the artist is Steve Townsend. He also does some … Continue reading Guess What?
