Is Practice Doing or Trying?

February 28, 2020

Short answer – doing. More in-depth – practice is action. Understanding this can open you to some awesome things. Many people live by the phrase “practice makes perfect.” The problem is, I think they tend to misunderstand both the intent and true meaning of that phrase. To me, “practice” is the action. For example – in fencing, there is specific footwork, combined with bladework, that allows you to attack and defend with confidence and precision.

Why Do You Choose the Words You Use?

February 21, 2020

You get to choose the words you desire to use. Some may disbelieve, but you can have a lot of fun with words. I cannot imagine being unable to read. There are so many wonders in this world that are revealed in words that the idea of not being able to interpret them staggers me. Language in-and-of-itself is pretty fascinating. Beyond the oddities and complexities of English, there are single words that convey vast ideas

Editing is a Necessary Evil

January 31, 2020

Editing your writing cannot be neglected. It’s important to make your work the best that it can be. I love writing. When I get to put words to the page or screen it makes me deliriously happy. This is my jam, whatever genre I am working in. Writing is joy. Editing, on the other hand, is less fun. At least for me, it is. I have no doubt that there are people out there who

Learning is a Part of Doing

January 24, 2020

Learning is a part of doing and continued education is not just for certain licenses and such. I wrote my first work of fiction, a sci-fi story when I was nine years old. Wildfire was 50 pages and illustrated by me. The characters’ side profiles, FYI, lacked noses. At the age of 13, I typed my next complete work. Once again it was sci-fi, clearly influenced by Tron, called The Secret Computer World. It was
