Sharing is Caring

I know how beautiful and courageous it is to dip the pen in the inkwell early on, then to stay motivated, finding other voices to keep you inspired. Never give up. Always dare to dream... In the electronic age, all can be heard. The depth of your audience is up to you.

Almost Gone

There is a threshold we all reach in our creative pursuits. Move forward? Stay put and give up? This writing adventure is costing me so much time and money, perhaps I'll just melt away in obscurity and forget I was ever here...

My new website launched today. I'd love feedback from all you wonderful people in the creative world before I start my search for a new publisher and agent on my next series of books. Thanks!

When I was an actor I had a "like me" tag on the back of my shirt. I thought it was part of my job... Now that I write books, I want people to "appreciate my work if its well-done. If it isn't their cup of tea, fine. If I offend a sensibility, that's their issue. Thick skin as a writer comes from intellectual understanding. Its resilient and callused, developed from years of being bruised. You won't stay a writer long without constant growth.
