Ok.. this has to stop…

I was at books-a-million today and I was looking at the books I want to buy and read, and the books I want to read and not buy, and the books I want to buy and not read, but pretty much I was looking at the prices of the books and comparing them to other [...]

Marley & Me

Now I got to me honest, I enjoyed this movie, not because it was such an amazing movie, or because of who the actors were, their skill however was top notch which I feel did help the movie a lot.

What amazed me however was that on a writing forum I was on, I was watching [...]

Go For It!

Every time I turn around I see people getting stuck in a rut of what “to do” and what “Not to Do” and this can appy to anything.
Nevermore however this affects writing and world building, as we constantly face everyone and anyone shouting, whining and complaing about what not to do.
so I am not going [...]

Keep at it!

What is the defining line between writing and failing at writing?
When I asked this question to many other writers I got vast array of answers but one seemed to be reoccurring, and was the mantra of published writers, both self and traditional.
Paraphrased, they said – “Endurance”

But Wait!

Some people are just amazing at what they do…
Billy Mayes was one of them.

But Famous! Never!
And yet… Here is [...]

RIP – To a Legend

What do you say about the passing of a man like Michael Jackson.
He was the epitome of the eccentric artist, that much I will give him. He was famous, rich, and strange in every way a man could be. He invented dance moves, images and all in all he seemed to escape any attachment of [...]

What is “Good” writing?

Now we ask ourselves the ultimate question of all time.
“What is good writing?”
This of course, like “What is good art” is purely subject to the opinion of what ‘other people‘ (AKA: The Notorious They) think is good writing.
I say ignore them all!
Here is the way it works, it won’t matter if you never see your [...]

Online RPG’s

Well it was bound to happen sometime.
I got myself addicted to an online RPG and have been spending almost all time there ‘grinding up the toon’
I would like to say in my own defense, if you could call it that, I did not end up playing a mainstream game, with lots a really great graphics, [...]

Vampires!

It seems they are the big thing these days… vampires here, there, and everywhere.
