NaNoWriMo is two months away. You know the drill: 50,000 words in 30 days. That comes in at 1,667 words per day. It’s a daunting task for both new and experienced writers. I’ve done it twice and will probably do it again in a few years when the kids are older. But for now, I’ve […]
Getting back into writing after taking a break
I’ve taken…holy cow…almost the entire year so far off from writing fiction. Most of the time off has been spent working on other projects such as the card game and setting up some the initial business stuff required for that.

What are you giving up?
“I Just don’t have the time.” It’s crazy how many times I’ve heard people say, “I’d like to work out more, but I just don’t have the time.” Or “I’d like to read a book sometime, but I just don’t have the time.” Or my personal favorite, directed a me: “You write fiction? I wish […]
