So far, so good…
So many have turned out to support my events, and I’m grateful!

Where do you get your inspiration?
My cousin liked to scare me with almost-nearly-true ghost stories.
Earlier this year, I submitted a piece to an regional anthology and it was accepted.
Sometimes you do what you want to. Other times, you do what you have to.
Sometimes we’re focused on the wrong goals.
When you corner someone to enthuse about your latest writing project, your victim’s first question is likely to be, “what’s your story about?”
I hate unfinished projects. They whisper nagging words in my ears and poke me in the ribs when I try to relax.
If you are a writer, you know that a big project can get under your skin. When it’s not going well, it becomes a niggling obsession. Even if you never develop it past the first draft, you are still driven to finish it, because writers are disciplined people. Your characters are only half-drawn. They stand naked and alone, and if you don’t dress them, no one will.
I received an email from an editor a little while ago. She said the piece I submitted “holds promise,” and/or “has merit,” but she didn’t think it was quite right for her publication at this time.
