Last Week’s Goals All blog entries posted on schedule. All returned stories were sent back out to market. I failed to make my weekly and daily quotas – I wrote no fiction on any day last week. I had too much LIFE items to deal with to allow more writing than required to get my … Continue reading
Last Week’s Goals My three blog entries posted as scheduled. Rotating my stories back out to market as fast as I can. I failed to make my weekly quota once more – only 785 words of fiction. I finished my reacquaintance revision of Swordsmaster: Deception. I wrote six days, but didn’t make my daily quota … Continue reading

During some lessons, the teacher would bring in a film projector, darken the room and … Continue reading
It’s funny how we often compartmentalize our lives, and don’t take a learning from one compartment and apply it to the others. Continue reading
This is one of those examples of LIVE BY DISCOVERY, DIE BY DISCOVERY. It’s probably my fault for being a PANTSER. I suspect that, if I REALLY wanted to be a different writer, I could change my modus operandi and do more planning, but then the creative experience would be totally different, and why would I write?
