Well! It's all about me!

The original concept for this blog was to be a shared place for some fellow writers. And it still is, but we all have our lives and schedules and I still invite you all to contribute (or if you know someone who might want to join and post) I encourage you to!

But in the meantime, my own constant writing has continued. I am still working on Lucky One and then I also have been trying some short stories, something I can refine I send off to someone who publishes such things.

The funny thing is the short stories seem so much different than Lucky One. They aren't scifi by any stretch of the imagination but I am compelled none the less to write them. Today I wanted to get a first draft done and I have spent all day cranking it out and am almost done with it--this post is actually kind of a break.

Anyways, I want to start using this blog to talk about my own writing process, if for nothing else than for shits and giggles (in that order, if you please).

So today I started working on a short story I had in the back of my mind for awhile now, loosely based on the experience I had trying to give away kittens. It seemed like it would be a quick and easy write, but at 4,045 words and a day spent writing (children and the wife won't be ignored) I am wondering what my daily average will be.

Stay tuned I guess! I write everyday but sometimes it's no more than a couple hundred words.

    And, indeed, it IS all about you.
