    If you want to create…

    Then watch this speech by author Neil Gaiman. You’ll be inspired. And if that’s not enough then remember the words of Andy Warhol: “Don’t think about making art. Just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it’s good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they’re deciding, make even more art.” Now what are you waiting for? Go!

    RIP Whitney Houston

    I’d like to celebrate the life of Whitney Houston by posting some of her songs.  To hear the song, click on the link. I used “If You Say My Eyes Are Beautiful” as a theme (i.e Nikki and Lucian’s song) for SECRET PARADISE.

    Deadline Blindness

    (formerly called Seven Things That Don’t Get Done When I’m on Deadline) I originally wrote this post in 2008 and thought I’d give it an update. Deadline blindness is not a malady all authors face, lucky sods, but I certainly do. Here are the things I don’t do or see when I’m on a deadline. 1)      Laundry. I just fill another basket. 2)      Letters/Emails. Haven’t heard from me? Don’t worry you’re not alone. 3)      Social Networking. Facebook? I have a Facebook page? 4)      Reading. I love books and I have a stack waiting for me, but I can’t get to them yet.
