Hey, Aren’t You Old Enough to Have Your Own Place?

admin / February 28, 2011

We’re little more than a month out from the publishing of The Trust and I’m starting to realize I have a lot to learn about book promotion. What I have learned can be boiled down to one word. Presence. Of course reducing any idea to[..]

Review – Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter by Tom Franklin

admin / February 27, 2011

When I was a kid I enjoyed spelling different words. Mississippi was one in particular I loved from the sing-songy approach “M-I-crooked letter, crooked letter, I…” When a recommendation came up on my Nook that was just that, I was intrigued and later amazed. Tom[..]

Come Visit my Little Corner of Cyberspace

admin / February 25, 2011

I went to sleep on January 20, 2011 to little fanfare. I was at a conference staying in a nice hotel on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Oddly enough there was talk of snow for the weekend. I awoke on the morning of Friday, January[..]

I’m a planner. Vacations? I know where I am going, where I am staying, the things I want to do on vacation and likely even the days I’ll be doing them while I travel. Dinner? I know today what I am having tomorrow. My day? [..]

iPhone – A tool for Writers

admin / February 11, 2011

I’ve always loved getting a new cell phone. Trouble is as soon as I have a one I’m ready for a new one. At least until I purchased my first iPhone. Sure there were things to get used to – virtual keyboards, small ear speaker[..]

Alone in Cyberspace

admin / February 08, 2011

For years I looked at blogs and rolled my eyes. Why would I ever need to blog?I had this same response with Tivo. I had the same reaction to satellite radio. I did it with my iPhone. In each of the situations I had a[..]

Just ask…

admin / February 06, 2011
