A writing question – do you need a timeline?
Question for all you writers and readers out there: I have a number of short stories that fit into the same universe, but… A) The universe is very large and spread out (huge time line.) B) The stories can really kind of stand on their own without the rest of the universe though there areContinue reading “A writing question – do you need a timeline?”
What in the world have I been up to
This has been kind of an odd week. I don’t do a lot of traveling for work, and most of the time I don’t travel West, at least not very far West. This week however, I traveled about as far West as you can get and still be in the lower 48 states, and cameContinue reading “What in the world have I been up to”

As I have mentioned before I get story ideas at odd times, and if I don’t let them out, and write them down then tend to drive me crazy. lastContinue reading “On Getting Something Done”
Keeping Track
One thing that I have noticed over the years is that the older I get the more I seem to have to keep track of, and the harder that can be at time. Ok I will pause here for you to insert your jokes about me getting old…. Ok out of your system? Good. SoContinue reading “Keeping Track”
Working out the Kinks of the First Post
Well folks, I have had this site up and open to the public for a number of days, and still have yet to write a first post. That first post on a blog is always the hardest. I mean it very quickly get’s buried, but it really sets the tone for the site. Well, IContinue reading “Working out the Kinks of the First Post”
