Hello dear friend, I’m still here. As some of you may have heard/seen by now, my email was hacked into. In addition to the scam letter sent, they also intercepted my email. I haven’t received a single email since they sent out the scam on 17 June 2015. So…I have a new email address. I […]
Living in November Rain
“I wish I could understand the words,” I thought, driving down the highway this afternoon. I gazed at the radio. “Guns ‘N Roses not Bon Jovi,” I said. I was still learning the music of that era and always confused the two bands. The rains were coming, but I couldn’t see the black clouds rolling […]
Keeping Up Appearances
I am including an interview at the end of “Broken.” This question was asked of me and my answer can’t wait. I had to post it now. The answer I composed surprised even myself. Question: I understand the need to write something like Broken, but why publish it? Why put this out for everyone […]
Current thoughts
Fear of rejection. Guilt from selfishness. These are my most prominent feelings I’m experiencing right now. I’m a writer. Writers tend to self centered. We write books exploring our stories, our beliefs, our opinions. We launch websites that exist like little countries and we hoist our flag. “I hereby deem this Angela Land!” I exclaim. […]
Thoughts on Social Media Part #4
Google+. I will be the first to tell you, I am not using Google+ properly. It irks me. Every morning, I sign on line, check my site stats, tweet out my love on Twitter, then check Goodreads, Facebook, and Google+. Facebook I get. I see the back and forth replies, but Google+ is ISOLATED! I […]
Thoughts on Social Media Part #3
So then what is Social Media for? Is it really just another vast room where I can enter to shout across the Cyber lines? Honestly, it all seems so primitive to me. I want to do more. It has so much more potential. It really does! So here is what I started building. I have […]
Thoughts on Social Media Part #2
Social Media. Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Goodreads, Instagram, Tumblr…my god…There really are a lot of them today aren’t there? I still remember waiting for the dial up back in 1996 on our Tandy 1000 that accepted floppy discs. Did your brain just explode with nostalgia? LOL Mine did. It seems such a waste to just sign […]
Thoughts on Social Media Part #1
Goodmorning me dearest reader. I wrote a 2,000 word post this morning and have broken it into four 500-word parts for easy digestion. The goal of this…monologue is presented in Part #4, which you are welcome to skip to. Part’s #1, #2, and #3 are just exploratory dialogue to help me get to what I […]
Kallan’s Psyche
Psychology is absolutely fascinating to me. As a writer, it has done so much to help my characterization. Knowing some things about psychology has taken the guess work out of character development. Just start with the character’s childhood and you’ll know what to plug in. I have a lot to cover here, so give me […]
Daryl Dixon
I love it. I write an article on “Shame” and it inspires me to write about Daryl Dixon. I loved Norman Reedus when he was in Boondock Saints. I ran to The Walking Dead because I learned that Norman Reedus was in TWD. When Reedus auditioned for the role of Merl, the writers loved him […]
