  • Other people’s expectations…

    What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony? Living up to the expectations of others will be the death of me. What it takes to be a good worker, a good parent, a successful member of society… Go where the work takes you. Do the jobs you can do well. And the…

  • Discussion: “How do you help others fight depression?”

    Recently, a close friend’s family hit a patch of unexpected unemployment. She has spent the week in a funk, nervous about paying bills, nervous about making rent. She is a very good friend and I have helped her out in the past. She resents this, however, because she thinks of it as accepting charity I…

  • Music Lists for Writing

    What is your favorite genre of music? I find over the last few years that it helps to make Playlist of music based on the project I am writing.

  • Beginninga: “Coyote”

    “Love is a form of prejudice. You love what you need, you love what makes you feel good, you love what is convenient. How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world that you would love more if you ever met them?”‒Charles Bukowski Balancing my laptop case…

  • Reflection: Rafting through Big Gore Canyon, Colorado

    Describe your most memorable vacation. My son was just old enough and finally tall enough. My father and I signed him up for white-water rafting along the Colorado River in the summer of 2018. His father and I had been separated since he was an infant, so to take him on such a beautiful and…

  • Making the Leap: From Unknown to Unstoppable

    Most authors giving advice on how to become successful as writers will touch upon the basics of getting on as many social media platforms as you can find and constantly networking.

  • Personal Reflection: How Creativity Breeds Insubordination

    Creative minds really seem to upset the status quo. My favorite note from managers or bosses who have fired me is “you are not a team player.” My response has usually been “Nobody on this team is winning and they all resent the team captain for being a idiot and an asshole.” Politicians have no…

  • Give my books a read and a review!

    What the cock-smack is happening, all you wiener-slingers who’ve had your meat slapped against a tongue causing you to chuckle confidently and be like heh heh cool, but then it graduates into a light smack with the palms or fingers and you’re like ouch but you don’t say anything because you don’t want to ruin…

  • Personal Reflection: The Balance Between Writing, Working, & Family

    I was 14 when I decided I wanted to write detective fiction. At age 10 I read my first Agatha Christie and by 14 I was up to my eyeballs in Arthur Conan Doyle, Dashiell Hammet, Raymond Chandler, and Jim Thompson dime novels. There was something entrancing about the poetry of noir. Men with shabby…
