Motivation & Writer's Block

  1. The Wagon

    When I was around 12 years old we lived at the far edge of a large city, where the houses on land lately-wrested from farms being pushed aside by housing developments. Across the street from our house was a cornfield still being farmed, and beyond those some rolling hills used for grazing cattle. Those cattle were owned by a nearby convent, where the nuns had made a living by leasing the land out. I'm not Catholic and never knew much about the place, but it had been there for years and...
  2. What a Year!

    As 2022 comes to an end, most of us are reflecting back on the year and others mine as well be in 2023. getting those resolutions ready to be forgotten about by the second week of January if they're lucky to make it that long.

  3. Alone...

    I find it so funny that in a world with what 8 billion people give or take the ones we don't know about.. That people are getting to the point where we feel we are better off alone. Because it's peaceful.. Now I will just say I like my alone time just as much as the next person.

For the whole 26 years I have been on this planet...
  4. Why I Bother

    Some days it's hard to get motivated to write, suspecting that it doesn't matter what I write or how well (or poorly) I do it. There was a time when I had visions of publication, or at least the idea that I could accomplish something of somehow lasting significance. But even back then I suspected I was chasing an illusion. One of my favorite poets has long been Stephen Spender, and one of my favorite of his poems is "What I Expected." He writes that What I expected, was Thunder,...
  5. The ideas are all here, but where's the paper?

    Do you have those moments when you're suddenly struck with an idea? That lamp that lights up in your head and you can't help it but to rush to your notes and write it? Well, that's basically my daily basis. Millions of thousands of ideas knocked me out of my sleep and I can't help but write them. Sometimes, I can remember the smallest details of my dreams and pour them onto the notebook that I have right beside me. That's the amazing part. The nightmare begins when I sit in front of my...
