Grinding the Goals, 2023
Happy 2023, everybody. I’m a month (and some change) late writing those words, but keep reading. We moved cross-country last summer and as those who’ve ever moved a household from one place to another can attest, is a beast. The moving company was a nightmare and we got here about three days before the 2022…

Behold, The Red Giant
Feel the breeze that rustles the leaves of the trees and runs across the plain chasing the herd, leading the people toward life. Behold the Lore that lives to teach the love of land and people. Feel the loss of leaves and trees, no more running and chasing across the plain that is dry and…

Infinite Possibilities
So. Writing is a challenge. For those who think oh, it’s nothing to write some of these stories, books, and screenplays … I mean, they’re just making it up, right? let me share something with you. That’s just the very first step to a good story, book, or screenplay. It’s easy to tell when that’s…

Come With Me!
Hey! I know. You’re wondering what in the world I’ve been up to. Or maybe you don’t care, and that’s fine. I’m alive, thanks. In fact, I’ve been writing (cue music of shock and awe). Yes. I mentioned I’ve been trying my hand at screenwriting; I signed up for a video course on it and…

Interior Argument
I first thought the keyboard emoji for a heart was a kiss. ❤ The ‘3’ are the lips and the ‘<‘ was the pucker. I used it voraciously, as if I’d found a new toy. And then the toy broke: I think I posted the ‘kiss’ on a site that auto-changed the keystrokes to a…

And an Almost New Year …
It’s that time again — the change of the year.I decided to update the Cave a bit with a new theme. I hope it will inspire me to maybe write more …Like changing curtains (does anyone actually do that anymore??) happens with spring cleaning …Like swapping the bedspread (do people other than me actually have…

Writing, I Am
Maybe I didn’t learn what I think I learned about writing so the idea of unlearning could be a figment of my imagination.Which is broad, deep, and wide, if you hadn’t noticed. My imagination, that is.[embedyt] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hge5IyRU1V4%5B/embedyt%5D IMAGINASHUN! I don’t recall getting much direction on my writing prior to high school. After gaining access to…

Goals, or Yeah, I’m Writing. Sort Of.
Although you wouldn’t know it from this blog, eh? Yes, life has intervened. Again. Still?I spend each day on my computer, answering emails, trying at times to maintain my calm because the questions or comments therein make all my attitude want to come out. Too bad I can’t just go mad sometimes so people will…
