This is not a guide to teach you how to become a writer. There are countless books, courses, articles and websites that can help you with that. They can teach you proper grammar, structure and even how to format your manuscript for publication. Those are all things that come with having a rough draft to polish and make pretty. This IS a guide to help you make actual progress and do what needs to come first—the most important step you must take if you want to write your story. Creating a first draft (the rough draft you can then begin to make pretty and polished).

My Other Accounts

Disclaimer:

I write in a handful of genres--and sometimes my stories spread across them. I also post eclectic musings about my worldview on life, tips on writing, and publishing. I occasionally use coarse language but not to offend by gratuitous use but rather for emphasis. Included among my posts and writings will be occasional plugs for my business, my books and my client's books. I reserve that right--hey it's my blog!

I believe that getting up is probably the most powerful and positive thing you can do in your life.

I believe that not getting up... giving in to fears... or to despair (or to bullies and those who say you cannot do whatever it is you wish to do or to become) is the weakest and worst thing you can do.

You can find the strength within... you can get up one more time than you fall.
