Who writes this stuff?

My business card says I am a “Writer, Story Teller, [and a] Decent Cook.”

In reality, for 8 hours a day I work inside the confines of a corporate gray cubicle, crunching numbers and editing documents while drinking massive amounts of coffee. Sounds bad, I know, but it is a great company and I really have a tremendous amount of autonomy and there is a good bit of creativity infused into my projects. And the coffee is free.

For stress relief, I write. I have no formal training, as you may be able to tell, but I am always checking out other writers, looking for tips on structure, character development, story ideas, what not.

The cool thing is that I have improved a bit and met some great people. Well, not met, per se, but interacted with, on-line. (I live in one of the best, yet so off the beaten track pieces of land around, so stalking is really out of the question. You’re safe, believe me!)

Thanks for taking the time to read some of my work. Remember, I am unpublished and there may be a reason for it…

    IMHO being published does not have anything to do with being a good writer. I use Stephen King as an example…;)

    Concur. I was in the music industry for years and the truest saying was “It’s not whether or not the music is good, it’s whether or not it will sell.”

      Thanks for the award. Unexpected but always welcome, since I have learned so much from reading other writers’ posts and have made so many awesome acquaintances.
