Nightmares Within Dreams
Image by Stefan Keller from Pixabay Perhaps it was a dream, she thought. Perhaps if she pinched herself, she would wake up. But she didn’t want to wake up. She wanted to stay in this dream world where the ocean was the sky and the sky was ground. She was literally walking in the clouds.Continue reading "Nightmares Within Dreams"

One Day at a Time Season 3 Exceeds Expectations…Again!
This is a recap I wrote about one of my favorite shows. It's final season aired on Netflix and it got cancelled, but I'm hoping with enough traction, another network will pick it up.

That's really what writer's block, isn't it? The fear of failure. The doubt that you might not have something important toContinue reading "Why It’s Absolutely Okay to Write Badly"

I got into comic books pretty late in the game (see my post about that here). The thrill of collecting issues soon waned though as I grew overwhelmed with the number of stories I wanted to keep up with. It's easy to fall behind on so many issues, especially if you follow the big two:Continue reading "Why Giving Up On Comic Books Is OK"
Becoming a Real Writer
It's hard to feel the confidence to say you're a writer. I often said I like to write, but never really said I was a writer. Even when I started writing a book, I still didn't call it a book. I called it a story or manuscript at most. Recently though, the more I writeContinue reading "Becoming a Real Writer"
Wanderlust: Ireland (Killarney & Ring of Kerry)
The next stop on my tour of Ireland back in March 2017 was the town of Killarney. This was somewhere between a small town and a big city, so, suburb. Strolling through the square at night with my new friends felt like I'd been doing that my whole life. In the morning, our tour directorContinue reading "Wanderlust: Ireland (Killarney & Ring of Kerry)"
