I never feel like writing is work, it's always an exciting challenge, even when I'm researching something, I love everything about writing!

I get up every morning between 5:00 and 6:00 to pray and read. After we have breakfast, do a few chores I begin my day at the computer about 9:00, take two small breaks and finish about 3:30 to 4:00. I have been writing at this pace since about 1982. I wouldn't trade my life for any other profession.

The one thing in writing initially bothered me and that was the editing and polishing a manuscript. I have been known to go over a manuscript nine times before I could finish it and let it go. The hardest thing for me is turning loose of my current work. I have actually cried during the early years of writing, because it became such a part of me.

Now I really enjoy getting everything in the book to read sharper than it was during the beginning stages, I actually like editing now, other than it infringes on the next book I have usually started.

I sincerely hope you enjoy all the phases of writing, as well.(less)

There was an old woman who sat in her rocking chair, she knew she was the last person on earth. Someone knocked on the door.

This is known as the shortest story ever written and I always got a good reaction from it when I taught my writing class. I don't recall the author.

Peaceful Protest Protects People

Peaceful Protest Protects People

Protest is to express opposition by a strong reasonable argument. A peaceful conflict almost sounds like an impossible thing to accomplish when tempers are raging about a legitimate and actionable need to protest.

It is a reasonable need to protest when someone like George Floyd is murdered right in front of millions of people. It’s how you protest whether you become Read more of this blog post »
