Every spring I go through my clothes closets, sort through books, and read the expiration date of items in my kitchen cabinets and medicine chest. But I’ve come to realize that I need to spring clean with a writerly focus as well. And if you’re serious about writing, so should you.
I hope you’ll poke around the site and see what’s here. 🙂 I’m very happy with the new design and added material. More is coming soon!
Updated website. 🙂
Added excerpt of my short story “In the Smoke,” in the soon-to-be-published anthology Smoke: Tales Between Dark and Light.
Do you think you’ll never get a bad review? Think again. Better yet, be prepared. If you don’t have a thick skin when your book goes public, develop one. Buy one, if there’s a store in the universe that will deliver. But have it in place and use it.
Here is the number one rule (the only rule, actually) for responding to a bad review:
Don’t.
The New Oxford American Dictionary defines a haiku as “a Japanese poem of seventeen syllables, in three lines of five, seven, and five, traditionally evoking images of the natural world.”
I enjoy Tweeting haikus with a nature theme, like these:
My feet run the trail
Spiderwebs adorn my hair
As birds call above.
A withered leaf falls.
Its scent crushes the present
And brings forth the past.
