In a week where I’ll begin a short term, slightly dubious job, it’s time to continue talking about Writing a Book. But, see, there’s some connective sinew here. There’s reason to all this rambling, there usually might be, and here we go. Writing a book often becomes a full-time job. And not only just the [...]

There’s very little to get to here and a lot of time to get to it.  That’s what I keep telling myself so it doesn’t seem like I’m lazy. Anyway, the gears of my brain and time and space and the vastness of the interwebbings are working in tandem for the first time in a [...]

This will be a brief post because it’s yoga night, there’s Lost to be watched, and dinner to be made.  Today’s topic is scheduling and how important it is for any writer ever. Anyone can pick up a book on keeping a schedule.  There are hundreds of thousands, flooding the market.  Books on scheduling your [...]

I’ll kick this off, finally, with something that has been on my mind a lot lately: hope and motivation. There’s this phenomenon with creative types where they need to keep themselves going.  That’s to say, when everything around them is crushing or there’s little to be excited or have faith in but something keeps them [...]

On the heels of the intended content relaunch for this site, I was diagnosed with a gastric ulcer.  So, that derailed all my efforts.  A week of eating nothing but vegetables and rice is nearly at an end and my stomach is finally quieting down. This derailment doesn’t mean I won’t be writing about the [...]

I’ve decided on a new aspect for this blog: the process of writing a book. The whole blog won’t just be this, of course, but I’d like to focus on it a bit more than anything else…anything else being that I haven’t written anything at all for quite some time.  As well, it’ll allow me [...]

Over the last month I’ve caught up on a lot of comics reading.  The reason being, I went to Fukuoka, Japan, have been sick, and was lazy. The main books I was and will be focusing on are Batman by Grant Morrison and Captain America by Ed Brubaker.  First off, I would like to state, [...]

Sure, I realize its been a while since I’ve written a post, and I’m hoping to get back to weekly drops in the infinite, but I wanted to leave something for you all to listen to.  The Invisible Fish is an indie artist from Seoul, South Korea that last.fm found for me today.  He’s in [...]

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 [...]

Just received word from the phenomenal Josh Elder that the proposal deadline for the Reading With Pictures Anthology has been bumped back to December 15th.  So, if you were longing to write, draw, ink, color, and letter your own comic about education or work as a team on one, you still have time. It’s great exposure as [...]
