The similarities are obvious. They were both... Read more of this blog post »

I see Chad appear at the top of the church steps. An old lady is on his arm as if he’s an Eagle Scout.

You can't really compare people. That's one of the biggest things I have learned. Because if you spend your time comparing yourself to others, it stops you from becoming who you are.
Remember: Enjoy your now, don't worry about what life has next.
Life plans you more than you plan it.
But then again... Read more of this blog post »

Fun night, feeling good this morning, drank more than usual last night but not really any adverse affects. 14oz (About 420ml) of 75.5% rum. That's 317.1ml of pure ethanol (100% alcohol).

This summer has been full of roller coaster surprises, rain, and family fun. I took some time to hang out with the fam while longing to write. While I was penning The Empress Reigns I almost lost my mother to an outpatient procedure that became dangerous due to the ignorance of her specialist.

I misplaced my notebook and have stumbled in my WIP. I wandered hollow for a few days, but have figured it out. It is not so much that I need to backtrack, but another path must be taken sooner. I will get to it. This empty feeling happens from time to time, and there is good in it. Sort of a res... Read more of this blog post »

五天的單身母親親子團很成功，北海道的報館雜誌得知後都來採訪。回去那天一個個的小家庭大包小包買了吃的穿的，一車車搬走。

札幌機場下車處在樓下，要爬樓梯才能到出發櫃台，行李多但只有等一架小電梯，搞得滿頭大汗。今年的北海道反常，原本是避暑勝地，竟然有三十度的氣溫。

已經沒那麼好氣，一個陌生小孩子當頭大喊：「蔡瀾。」

非親非故，小子那麼叫前輩是不禮貌的，我人再好，也不能作強笑狀，只是不作聲。

另一個又是那麼大喊，我有點忍不住了，向他說：「不可以連名帶姓叫年紀比你大的人。」

正在排隊過關，前面的一個男人轉過頭來，又大叫。看他是大人，我的語氣已不友善：「如果你是女的，那麼叫我，我很高興，可惜你是個麻甩佬，家庭...

Well… where to begin. There are all kinds of words I could use to try to describe the experience that was the Durban Book Launch of Lost Gods, and absolutely all of them will sound hyperbolic to anyone who wasn’t there – transcendent, incredible, life-affirming – that kinda thing. But it’s all tr... Read more of this blog post »

Cuando compartes un trabajo, en mi caso hablo de mis novelas, quedas expuesto a la censura (entiéndase censura como crítica o detracción) y a que cualquier lector pueda dar libremente su opinión.

Para Cortázar el disfrute de la lectura es así: “ Un escritor de verdad es aquel que tiende el arco a fondo mientras escribe y después lo cuelga de un clavo y se va a tomar vino con los amigos.
