Crossing the Bridges: Taking Steps

Crossing the bridges is only possible when you start taking steps. I intend to become a best-selling author.  While I write several different things in different genres, one of the intents of this particular blog is determining better ways to traverse bridges between these writing styles. However, in many respects, the first bridge I need to cross is between the life I currently have to the life that I actually want to have. I have written it before, and I

Crossing the Bridges: Self Talk – What follows I AM

I speak less highly of myself than anyone else.  I am my own worst critic. Always have been.  Know how that feels?  You always manage to find something to be critical about?  The one person you criticize the most, whom you give the absolute least amount of slack to being you? I know that this does me no good.  If my plans are not completed or I get distracted or I fail to do as planned, I can count on

Crossing the Bridges: Taking Action

Time to take action. I have been a bit stuck in regards to promoting my writing.  I blog thrice a week, sure, and Seeker, Finder and Clouds of Authority are all available on Amazon.  But I have haven’t done much to promote any of these recently, and generate more sales. Writing the story is one thing.  Editing it is another.  Formatting and publishing it is not the last step, by any stretch of the imagination.  At least, not when you

Thoughts on my Writing

Writing is my passion. While my favorite things to write are fantasy, sci-fi and Steampunk, I enjoy writing EVERYTHING.  Give me a topic, tell me how many words you want and I will write! I totally need and want more paid writing gigs.  But I digress. Over the years I’ve written brochures, blogs, text for websites and many other business-centric pieces.  For a time I even had my own company for this purpose, though its focus was a bit broader.

Vortex Pilgrimage Thoughts

I think everyone at one time or another goes through the process of finding themselves. On more than one occasion I have taken that journey. In fact, as evidenced by my weekly blog posts, I am still in the process of such a journey now – and since we change frequently, I will likely always be on this particular trek. There are numerous works of non-fiction in what gets lumped as “self-help”. Some are extremely practical and organizational, while some

Coming Soon – Vortex Pilgrimage

I know that people are waiting for me to complete the editing of Finder – The Source Chronicles Book II. I am still on target to release the sequel to my first fantasy novel in November, so never fear. I am, however, a writer who dabbles in multiple genres. For the most part I stick to the root of sci-fi and fantasy, though I consider The Source Chronicles to be a viable YA (Young Adult) series, and while Steampunk is

My Writing: Current Projects

I write in multiple genres. My first love has always been sci-fi and fantasy, but they are not the only genres I work in. I have written several forms of poetry, journalism, and even started a venture around the idea of business writing. I blog at least twice a week, and look for other opportunities to wordsmith whenever I can. I have on several occasions taken up the challenge of National Novel Writer’s Month. NaNoWriMo occurs every November, and the
