Writing in random times

Of writing, insecurities, and body art

Warren | March 6, 2010

I’m sitting here typing. LA Ink is on the tv next to me and the slow “whomp whomp whomp” of the ceiling fan stirs the around me. Strewn across my desk is a vareity of change, some books, unplugged speakers, and an empty can of peace tea I still need to throw away. [...]

It is the 80th birthday of Science Fiction Fandom

Warren | December 11, 2009

Science Fiction and Fantasy are…(is?) Something near and dear to my heart. It is the genre I love most, one that seems to be able to break the bonds of fiction and do whatever the heck it wants to do. I think every good writer is a fan of what they write, or [...]

Ah yah…changes (and other stuff)

Warren | November 25, 2009

So in my effort to renew myself, I have decided to change my room around. Not just a whim and a fancy on m part, but I was starting to feel a bit boxed in. I’m not done, but I already feel a bit of a freshness in my life. I wonder why [...]

Random Thinking at 3:30 am

Warren | November 13, 2009

So I have spent sometime on gather.com, in the writing group there. Groups? I dunno, it all kind of melts in to one another after a time…especially since you see the same faces over and over. It gets kind of weird because no one but a few seems to want to actually give [...]

Some thoughts on “A love story over three years.”

Warren | September 20, 2009

This story came to be because of a writing exercise over on gather.com. Every week or so there are several people [...]

Write what you know?

Warren | August 18, 2009

It is an old axiom in writing circles: Write what you know. You hear the mantra repeated Ad nauseam through out writing classes and seminars world wide. However, what does this phrase really mean?
I tend to write in the fantastic since that is what I read. I have been a lover of [...]

A few thoughts on health and writing

Warren | August 13, 2009

I am (currently) not the most healthy person. I am trying to fix that; but right now I am rather on the portly side. (I describe myself as a pear balanced on two turkey legs, heh.) One reason I am trying to loose weight isn’t just so I feel better, but so [...]

The Week of Defeat and new ideas

Warren | August 10, 2009

When making the decision to focus this blog on writing, I decided I needed to be brutally honest. Not just to document my struggles as a writer, but also to help me see where I have been and where I am going. Sometimes I don’t want to show my flaws, but if I [...]

Bloggery: Or “How I am going to blog on here.”

Warren | July 27, 2009

I tend to get obsessive about things. I don’t know if it is a mental disease or what, but I will often obsessed about “stuff” for awhile, over doing certain things to the point of not wanting to do that thing anymore. I do not want that to happen with this blog, so [...]
