Food can serve […]

The Ideal Reader

A future ideal reader to consider.

Do you have an ideal reader? You know the one reader that you think about as you are sculpting your prose; that reader who is sitting on your shoulder as you look for the proper way to turn a phrase, or escalate a series of events? This idea has come and gone throughout my writing […]

Putting Emotion into Your Writing

Putting emotion into your writing.

Tolerance
"No matter in what situations we find ourselves, when we don’t have so many opinions and preferences we naturally experience more peace of mind.
