America's Favorite Pastime

Hellow fellow bloggers,

My work day is almost coming to an end and I'll be heading out shortly. As I thought over my schedule for the everning (gym was last night) really only one thing came to mind - what is that you ask? Well America's favorite past time - watching TV, of course.

You know there was a point in time, when I was proud to say that I watched very little TV, and at the time it was mainly the news, but in recent times, I find myself spending more and more time in front of the "bube tube" (is that the correct spelling?). Granted most of what I watch is the Discovery & History Channel, but I still feel guilty in some ways...

Should I resolve to watch less TV or feel less guilty? :D Good night!

Writing is HARD work. There I said it!

Recently, I had a conversation with a fellow writer about different writing styles. We talked about how some writers can simply sit down on a computer and write on command; I cannot. My pre-writing process can take me ten, fifteen, twenty minutes or more and it usually involves me ‘getting in to character’; I need to connect with the hero and heroine before I can delve into their lives. It is then when I’m emotionally attached that ideas begin to form I’m able to capture the thoughts and the scenes and the story begins to unfold. I can tell you that when I begin to write a story, I too experience the same nervousness that a lot of writers feel. Will anyone read my stuff? Will anyone care about what I have to say? This is the fretful process of a writer, yet, we, I, push forward and write with excitement, optimism, and a lot of discipline. On an amusing note (or maybe not so) one thing that we, writers, often encounter is that non-writers tend to think that writing is easy.
