“A well-composed book is a magic carpet on which we are wafted to a world that we cannot enter in any other way.” – Caroline Gordon Writing is everything for me.

Our Place
*Our Place* On the edge with fish that nip and monsters that drag you so deep you can’t see the light of day.Inside black books never banned because they’re only read by a select few.Beneath the drums that lift and expose you all at once.Teeth, it’s always between themtruth,not hidden but not recognized either.Our placeContinue reading “Our Place”

I think I’ve reached a point in my rewrite stage where I’m going to need another monitor, but what really fueled this whole idea is that I also want to try some PC gaming.

When someone says, “I’m a writer.” The first question should be, “Oh that’s awesome, there’s so many ways toContinue reading “Types of Writers”
Novel Update
Book Three of my novel has been scrapped. I’m currently rewriting it. I’m not sure how my main character is getting to the end but I know what I want for an ending. So send me hope and snacks. I don’t feel very close to finished at all. Writing is rewriting. Mastering the art ofContinue reading “Novel Update”
