Well, not really, but it sounds good, right. Today isn't the first day of my next project. It the first day that I am returning to it after more than a month off. I didn't write for a month. Yes, that is right, I didn't write for over a month. I thought about it, but …

End of the Year
Where has the time gone? Wasted on the internet, rolling in the depths of my depression and figuring out I really wanted, living to work instead of working to live. We write our own stories, but this year I handed the pen over to my demons. Turns out that while they write an interesting hook, …
Writing in the Dark
Depression and self-doubt are my two greatest struggles as a writer.

Life has a way of complicating and un-winding itself all at once, which way it goes is up to the user. Sometimes a day goes both ways at once. This summer, I have been struggling to finish my first book, make enough money to pay my bills, complete multiple on-line classes and work on other …
Solutions
There are always people who will make it work and those who will make excuses. A witless quote loving person might say in order to inspire others. The world is full of false inspiration wrapped in idol hope. Everywhere solutions promise to be the last one that you will ever need. But need and want are …
