Originally I was going to write about determination. Kind of surprising that word has not come up more often in my writing. In a sense it is a strong relative of motivation. To be motivated to do something you must have the determination to see it through. Of course, seeing as how my motivation has… Continue reading December 4, 2013

I’m not going to say it’s cold outside for two reasons. Reason one is that I live in one of the warmest places in the United States. If I say it’s cold, ninety five percent of the people I know will rail against me. (The other five percent live here.) Reason two is that it… Continue reading November 30, 2013

For those of you who read my Facebook posts (and I’m assuming that’s most of you because if you didn’t you probably wouldn’t be reading this right now) you know about my comic and cosmic misadventure this week. For the unfortunately lucky readers I may have snagged in my web who don’t know, I misplaced… Continue reading November 23, 2013

I know I’m skating by on a technicality here; yes this will be published on Wednesday, just like it is every week, but it is far later on Wednesday than it normally is. So late in fact that most of you who read this won’t even see it until Thursday. I’d like to say I… Continue reading November 20, 2013

Half the time I write these posts with a very well defined image in my head of where they are headed. Much like the fiction I write, I know where I know the beginning and the end and the message I’m going to send. The other half of the time my blogs remind me of… Continue reading November 13, 2013

As a writer, I’m perversely attracted to the lives of other people. Let’s face it, without y’all I’d have nothing to write about. (Just kidding. Mostly…) Even before I knew I was a writer I wanted to know what it would be like to walk in someone else’s shoes for a day. I’m not just… Continue reading November 9, 2013

This would have been the perfect week to have written this one ahead of time just so I would have been able to post it on time. But it’s been a crazy week and I had a hard enough time making it to work and seeing as many of my friends that are down here.… Continue reading November 3, 2013

It’s my birthday today and that calls for a special blog. In many ways it’s not much different from my blogs-insight into my personality, opinions on the world, ideas for a (hopefully) better way to and it even starts with a song for the soundtrack live-but in many ways it is. Mostly because I’m putting… Continue reading October 26, 2013

A friend of mine used to joke that he would give anything except the time and effort to get into shape. Making any change in your life requires both of those. Having the desire to make a change doesn’t accomplish anything if you don’t put the work in and recognize the time commitment. Change doesn’t… Continue reading October 23, 2013

I know I’m coming very late to this party, but I have to say that I just don’t get why anyone gives a crap about people who are famous just for being famous. It used to be that you became famous for accomplishing something, or discovering something or even just surviving something. And I don’t… Continue reading October 16, 2013
