5 Great Reasons Why You Should Create Something this Year

There is almost never a reason not to create. Professional, hobbyist, or dabbler – everyone is a creative. Some creations are obvious. Paintings, books, ceramics, carvings, songs, and so on. Others of equal importance but less obvious are equations, theories, philosophies, organization tactics, procedures, routines, and so on. Some of what we create is thought of as mundane and unimportant. Perhaps it is – but that makes it no less important – and is still

How Might You Let Your Art Flow Through You This New Year?

With the new year, what new art are you doing? Welcome to 2022. Happy New Year! For many people, a new year represents some sort of fresh start, choices to do something new, or something else of that nature.

I can be writing a blog about writing; an article about mindfulness, conscious reality creation, and self-awareness; a sci-fi novel; blurbs for social media; business website content. It doesn’t matter to me – I love

One Day at a Time is The Only Way I Can Truly Do It

One day at a time acknowledges the notion of living in and for the now. The unfortunate reality of my art, presently, is that it’s not paying me a living wage. I am working on improving this – which is part of why I’ve published 6 new novels this year. However, I am an adult with bills to pay. As much as I am striving to make my writing be my primary income – as

The Best Fictional Characters Seem Utterly Real to Me

That is why the characters that writers create matter. In 1998, I was sitting at my desk at work. And I was bored. At the time, I was the sales manager for an itty-bitty audiophile record label. Though I was good at my job, it came with long periods where I had nothing to do. A vision popped into my head. There he was – a man in a robe, with a staff – the
