The Life of an Aspiring Author

I've been an aspiring author for seven years, seven months, and twenty-five days. I've written over three-hundred thousand words. I've worked on six different stories. And I have completed exactly zero novels. There is no honest way that I can say I'm proud of myself. There's no reason why I shouldn't have a completed book by this point. You've heard of serial entrepreneurs, I'm a serial wannabe writer. I'll work on something, write thousands of words, be happy with it, hit a road block, and then toss the whole thing in [...]

A single moment. A breath of anticipation as you slide into your seat. You're early, but missing curtain call wasn't worth the risk. The minutes and seconds tick by with agonizing timidity.

Writing Inspiration: New York City

Discovering writing inspiration is not easy. Most days I stare at my computer hoping that something comes to mind and BAM! I'm filled with writing ideas. That's rarely the case and yet that's typically how most of us write. We expect writing inspiration to appear out of thin air, envelop us in its glory, and take us on an amazing imagination-filled ride.
