Creative endeavors have no one size or shape to them

What Did 2022 Look Like for Your Creative Endeavors?

Did you succeed with the creative endeavors you worked on? Since I started to write full-time to live as a professional author, I’ve been producing a lot more finished work in my creative endeavors. Let’s stick to my fiction work, here. Before shifting my focus to my creative endeavors, I self-published 3 novels before 2020. Then, in 2020, I published 3 novels. In 2021, I published 6 novels. In 2022, I completed multiple works. The

Pantser or planner – your writing practice is yours and yours alone.

Can Your Writing Practice Blend the Pantser with the Planner?

Pantser or planner – your writing practice is yours and yours alone. For most of my writing career, I’ve been a pantser. Pantser = one who writes by the seat of their pants. An idea popped into my head – and I sat down with my notebook or at the keyboard and started on it. And in this way, I created multiple stories and produced several novels. Sometime in 1998 or so, I sat down

Can you have too many stories in the queue?

Is There Such a Thing as Too Many Stories in the Queue?

Can you have too many stories in the queue? I don’t believe so – but your mileage may vary. In September 2015, I began a sci-fi story idea that would evolve into my Void Incursion series. I published the first two books of the series in 2020, then the next 2 in 2021. The fifth and final book of the series is currently waiting to be sent to an editor. At the end of 2020,

What Does the Future of Fiction Publishing Look Like?

Do you go with traditional, non-traditional, or REALLY non-traditional publishing? For a long, long time, the only way to make any money as a fiction writer was to go the traditional publishing route.

This was the only way to earn money as a professional

Any fleeting idea can be turned into a creative endeavor

Can You Turn a Fleeting Idea Into A Creative Endeavor?

Yes, but you must do the work to make that fleeting idea into something more. Have you ever had an idea that came and went almost instantly? Or have you had an idea that nagged at you until you addressed it and did something with it? Sometimes, all you get is a fleeting vision, an idea, an image. Maybe from there, you get a further notion to take it somewhere. I know this process well.

truth is, there might be ZERO consequences for abandoning Twitter

Yes, I Disabled My Twitter Account – Despite How It Benefited My Arts

While it may have helped me as an author, I’m done with Twitter. Like you, I’ve been watching Twitter come apart at the seams. What Mr. Musk had planned as his end game for his actions is anyone’s guess. While I expected it to be gone soon – with or without Musk at its helm – I’ve left of my own accord. To be honest – I’ve spent very little time on Twitter overall. Between
