There are words to describe <redacted to protect anonymity>.  You will find them in the following word cloud. I’m sure you now know why I couldn’t post that on Linkedin…because they would yell at me.

Laziness set in quickly.  Then, boredom.  Then, I got yelled at by my wife.  And now I’m trying harder. That sounds much harsher on my wife then it should.  She didn’t “yell” at me, per say, as much as read an essay by George Orwell about the downfall of writing and excerpts from a book [...]

The creative process is mythical and never clearly defined.  At no point in college does anyone say “this is how to write a story” and offer step-by-step instructions.  We required to figure it out for ourselves.  So, we spend time on ideas, accumulated into Moleskines or folders on your hard drive, and structure, on notecards [...]

The Soul Pancake folks brought Fifty People One Question to my attention, a site that mirrors, in some ways, one aspect of Soul Pancake, and I felt it necessary to point you all in that direction.  The point is to ask one (or two, in many cases) question of fifty people and film their responses.  [...]

There’s something that wants to come out right now, but I’m not sure which ‘something’ I want to hold the cage upon for.  That’s the way it ends up after watching a great film, seeing something inspiring, drinking a eye-opening song or album.  And that’s where I am right now.
