Still waiting, but this is common for us writers. I’m not saying anything new. It’s tough, frustrating, but you keep at it. It’s the same for artists–I’m looking at YOU, Robin Brantley. But we keep going because we love what we do. Even when we want to quit. Even when we say we’re going to … Continue reading Musing 03/19/21 – Diverse Writers: Still a Long Way to Go.

The Publishing Industry and COVID19
After many days of headaches and worries, my 9 to 5 finally allowed us to Work From Home (WFH). Don't get me wrong, I'm still worried, but not as as much. I worried about my Big Brother, who had Type 2. I'm calmer now and having to stay in. Since our governor just dropped the … Continue reading The Publishing Industry and COVID19
Musing 11/5/18 ~ Follow the Rules!
...Or, "If I can do it the hard way, why can't you?" I know it's been awhile since I posted here. But it's been one of those, life gets in the way, kind of years. If you follow me on Facebook or Twitter, you'll know I was downsized from my job of ten years in … Continue reading Musing 11/5/18 ~ Follow the Rules!
Musing 10/16/17 – Are We Getting Too Old For This Sh**? Part 2 or: “So now blogs are obsolete?”
Well peeps, in about 12 days, I’ll be hitting a milestone birthday –that’s right, I’ll be um – 30. Forget what I said about being 33 last year. I’m taking a bit of a break from my current WIP, tentatively titled Gunslinger Witch, although my friend Robin says I should be careful it’s not confused … Continue reading Musing 10/16/17 – Are We Getting Too Old For This Sh**?

Mini-Musing: 09/17/17 ~ It’s Hard to Let Go
With all the Musings, I’ve been writing for the past few weeks you would think this would be easier. I’m considering letting my work go. It took me five years to write my work mainly due to life throwing all types of crap at me and I’ve actually gotten some positive feedback not to mention … Continue reading Mini-Musing: 09/17/17 ~ It’s Hard to Let Go
Musing 8/29/17– May I Have A Word, Literary Agents?
Wow! Two Musings in two days, that’s a record! First I want to say that I’m not trying to offend ANYONE with this post, certainly not people in the industry. Either way this may or may not get me into a situation but I just need to get this out of my system.Again, if you’ve … Continue reading Musing 8/29/17– May I Have A Word, Literary Agents?
Musing 08/28/17– Weird is the New Brilliant?
I'm a big fan of the Nostalgia Critic! Well it’s sort of an off and on relationship. I gave him up a few times but came back. Why mention this? Because there is a question I was pondering concerning stories that are not quite well -- they're different and they seem to be the type … Continue reading Musing 08/28/17– Weird is the New Brilliant?
Musings 7/10/16: These are a Few of my Favorite…Authors!
I thought since my last Musings was about the scarier aspect of the business, I thought I'd do something in contrast. So with this Musing I'm going to discuss one of the best things about this business -- US! Authors I mean. Hell, there wouldn't be a business without us, right? Anyway, I thought maybe … Continue reading Musings 7/10/16: These are a Few of my Favorite…Authors!
Musing 4/7/15 ~ "Ward, I’m worried about the Genre."
So if you've checked my Facebook page, I didn't get the promotion at the 9 to 5. However, the department head is going to basically take me under his wing and get me the additional experience I need with the help of my supervisor. They want me to be ready for the next round which … Continue reading Musing 4/7/15 ~ "Ward, I’m worried about the Genre."
