At A Crossroads

It’s been a week between posts here but I wanted to update Copious Notes because it’s writing that I want to get done. Lately I’ve felt that I’m at a crossroads with my writing with all three projects that’s going on. An opportunity arose last month to write a short story and to get it [ READ MORE ]

Capacious Kindle for May 24: eBooks Arrive

One interesting thing about not updating this blog too much over the past few years is the fact that I’ve failed to capture the rise of the Kindle and eBooks as a whole. The Kindle has been the best-selling device on Amazon’s website for years but now we’re hearing about a whole new class of [ READ MORE ]

The Weekender for May 20-22: Stop Aspiring

Twitter is interesting in the fact that it’s a collection of the vast knowledge we all possess and the people it brings us into contact with. Besides being a huge time-waster we can utilize it to find out things by ‘asking the masses’ and also searching it. Used correctly, it’s not just for saying what [ READ MORE ]

Sharing My Knowledge

UPDATE: Looks like I posted just a few hours too hours too early because the speaker schedule has been posted! I’ll be speaking from 1:55 – 2:05 PM so be on the lookout for me after you’re done with lunch! ——————— I’m taking a break from ‘The Weekender’ this week in order to bring an [ READ MORE ]

Yeah, About That Second Book…

It’s funny how the grand picture in our heads gets us to think we can do anything. In a perfect world we have time to work on all our projects, work our jobs, and do everything we want to do with our lives. The reality is that even with time management, we’re limited in what [ READ MORE ]

Welcome to another blast from the past! The Weekender series is here for another critical thought for your writerly minds. This week I want to talk about writing advice.

The Benefits of Self-Publishing

  • Posted in Just me

The writing and publishing world has blown up the past week mostly due to the break-out news of writer Amanda Hocking and her incredible publishing story. The amazing part isn’t that she got her books into the hands of millions of readers but the fact that she’s NOT published in the traditional sense. You can [ READ MORE ]

Talkin’ Turkey

It’s a little-known secret in my family, but not online, that Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday ever. Of course as a kid Christmas was #1 but in my years since growing up, it’s turned to Thanksgiving. Aside from an enormous amount of food, my love of the day comes from the fact that everyone (in [ READ MORE ]

Cook’s Source Pisses Off the Internet

  • Posted in Just me

This past week has been very interesting in the world of publishing, rights and a most-impressive use of viral news. So much has happened that I felt I needed to blog my thoughts and reactions to this whole issue regarding Cook’s Source magazine. If you’re unfamiliar with Cook’s Source, it is a free food-enthusiast magazine [ READ MORE ]
