The voices are talking again

I don’t know about my fellow writers, but when new stories start to reveal themselves to me, I get scenes, like a movie, flowing behind my eyes whenever I close them. Hell, sometimes I don’t even have to close them. They can get pretty real. (It’s then you start to wonder if you’re insane, or psychic. Perhaps both.) Maybe it’s just...

My alter ego is teaching this week

Don’t you just hate it when people talk about themselves in the 3rd person? Seriously though, I do try to keep my fiction writing separate from well, everything else I do in the business realm.

Can we say ouch?

This may or may NOT be a writing post…we’ll see how it goes. K?

Instead, I find online tools that help let me express my creativity,...

Boost my Mood, What's your BEST opening line???

It’s been a hard day, and maybe, one day I’ll tell you about my volunteer work, but, if you want to keep up with that…go check out/subscribe to my Holistic Health site. I try to keep the realms separate, but it doesn’t always work. You’ll have to deal with a somewhat split personality…sorry….. For THIS post? No, I...
