Last Month Today
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
Hello friends, welcome to Last Month Today, a quick update on what’s been going on with my writing. Before I continue, let me say that the title of this update is, without a doubt, a nod to John Oliver’s multi-Emmy-winning show, ‘Last Week Tonight with John Oliver,’ which airs weekly on HBO. If you’ve never seen the […]

Writing My Ass Off
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
Writing my Ass Off It’s true. I’ve been writing my ass off. But what does that mean? It means that I’ve been working on finishing Book 6 in the Consortium Series. I wrote at every opportunity and every weekend for two months. I got so into the story that I needed to find out how Read more

I’ve been on a Bender
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
That’s right, I’ve been on a bender. I don’t mean drinking or the Futurama character, although there are days I miss the drink. No, the bender I mean is writing, putting quality time into research, putting words down and writing a story. Last week, I took several days off from work as a staycation. And Read more

Moderation by Amazon, again; follow-up
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about my recent experience with my advertisement for my Consortium series and suffering a Moderation by Amazon. With this article, I’d like to report on Moderation by Amazon, again; follow-up. 🤦♂️ Rinse and rewind To those who might have missed my last post, I wrote about mother-effing Amazon […]

Moderation by Amazon…again
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
Yep, earlier this week, I was hit with a moderation by Amazon…again. Mother effing Amazon. This time, it was for an advertisement for The Trafficking Consortium running for years. Why now? I have no idea. Of course, they have rules and regulations on appropriate content. The advertisement followed them and stayed within the boundaries of […]

What’s new in my writing
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
Good morning readers and followers, I know you’re wondering what’s new in my writing. I can’t say I blame you. I’m always curious myself—odd when you think about it. I reflected upon my progress in writing book six of the Consortium series with friends the other night. I won’t say much about the plot so […]

Writing is like Sex
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
Writing is like sex. First, you do it for love, then you do it for your friends, and then you do it for money. — Virginia Woolf, British Writer Recently, I came across this quote beginning with “Writing is like sex.” Anyone who knows me knows I like sex. I also like to write. Two […]

Incentive
Richard Verry, writer - Opening the mind to what is possible.
I have an additional incentive to continue writing. I am referring, of course, to my latest novel, Exposure. It’s doing well. In fact, some of you out there discovered its release and started reading it before I announced it. Across the board, my sales are up 37% since its release when comparing them to the […]
