    Many things sit on a metaphorical shelf in my mind. Those things are my interests. The activities I’d like to take part in, the stories I’d like to read, the shows I’d like to watch, the skills I’d like to learn… Unfortunately, it seems that of late that shelf appears to be collecting dust. Too…

  • Why I am Failing as a Writer: Part 6 – Too Close…

    Kristine Kathryn Rusch called part 6 of her series on “How Writers Fail” Words, so I am inclined to do the same. But the title there is deceiving. This one is about getting stuck in words. There’s something bigger here. This post is part 6 in my ongoing series where I turn a self-directed critical…
