  • A No Writing Writers Day

    Backups. Consulting with a friend. Organizing a group. Preparing for a film Festival. That’s part of today’s agenda. None of it involved writing, as in physically recording or chronicling anything. Which, ironically, inspired me to write this post. Writers write. Some need a degree. Some need a dedicated space.

Networking…

    Silly person. Take a hint. Among the various blogs I’ve run, they’ve either been too general (personal finance, the fate of the world, etc.), or very specific (life on Whidbey Island), or for one of the books I wrote (Walking Thinking Drinking Across Scotland, Dream Invest Live). My writing deserves more space. This blog is…
