Idea Overload

I've been doing a lot of edting lately and one of the things that I have noticed is that every time I am eyeballs deep in editing a story I have all these new story ideas creeping up on me in the dark. Sometimes they attack. They can attach themselves iike leeches to my soul until i pay them attention or they can dig under my skin like ticks and suck away at my motivation until they are bloated and I am numb...   Either way they have to be dealt with.   Typically I write these 'problem child

It's been a while. -

- been really busy lately, it's 2am & I feel like now is the right time to start writing again. It's been months since my last blog entry & reading it over again feels.... surreal. As I wrote it, I was feeling pretty down and miserable at the time, it pretty much summed up the relationship I had that never really worked out.   It's funny how as time goes on, I can see things more clearly now. He's gone. It's been a month already. He's living his life, I'm living mine. & I'm fi

How time does fly

Okay today was sort of a mixed bag of stuff. I guess it is always that way. For those who care to read just hang on cause the mind is overdrive and I just hope the fingers can keep up.   First up is my job. I didn't wait I just put in for the only week I knew my co-worker was on vacation. So I'm presently trying to get the second week of October off. I will know tomorrow if I got it or not. Willing to bet money at this point that I didn't. Anyway I am going to put in for some assorted days of

Screwed and so not enjoying it

Okay, I’m having problems all over. This is the second attempt to post this blog so let’s see how it goes. Got a nice message from Myr the first time telling me the site was updating.   Let me begin by apologizing. This blog is going to be a bit of me just complaining. Feel free to read other things. In the meantime if you have been looking to see what I am up to I do say I’m sorry. Things here have been a bit out of whack.   My father is now home from his vacation. The only problem seems to

Freedom of speech, Means nothing to most. But trouble if you breach it. ~Polystyrene

If you could not with stand the worlds harsh reality's what would you do? You have kept on fighting through hell to get to the other side. Now you are there you are kicked back in to the deepest depths of your own personal hell, Would it not be logical to just give up and retreat to your safe haven. Or keep on pressing at what you want until you either snap under pressure, die or gain what you wish to achieve in life.   Life is a fickle thing, It does not have to be such a harsh, problematic

so they like to bite....

Lately, my characters have been biting and bonding, Ok, well not so lately, too. I've noticed this has been an on going theme in many of my stories for as long as I've been writing. Not every story of course, but for a vast majority of them.   Have you ever noticed that you have some strange (or not so strange) common theme in your writing? If so what is it?

Trying to find myself

I vented a bit in my poetry today, I haven't done something like this since I was a kid.   http://www.gayauthor...amitryingtobe/1   I had a very long day at work with really great ups and really bad downs. I just don't know anymore what I am and what I want to be anymore. I am feeling confused over my life; I don't know where I fit anymore.   Being gay isn't the only question people get about their lives, I also have a lot doubts about what I am doing and my work. I try to be a decent huma

September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month and this week is the Deaf awareness week

Many of you know that September is the childhood cancer awareness month and this week is national deaf awareness week.   I often think about children with cancer, and hope that one day, there will be promising treatments that can cure any type of cancers. Three people I knew from high school had cancer and didn't survive from them after few years of battling. From my perspective, I believe that the government is focusing too much on research on adult cancers than childhood cancers. The govern

Having fun crushing on a supposed straight guy.

Gosh, I'm such a slut!   So yeah, I'm having this crush on this guy I know about from a class. I said "know about" because I've never actually talked to him or anything besides a certain amount of class particpation on both sides. So I basically know nothing about this Justin. Well, yeah, I know his name is Justin, and he's from the States. And cute to my eyes.   O well, Sky and Graham comes to mind when I'm talking about this situation. Sky, well, another sad news.   So yeah, I'm pretty c

New Profile image

Well, I just updated my profile image to give readers a few puppy dog eyes   I thought the image was cute and since I have been using Garfield for so long, I might as well move up on the old animal chain before I actually reach man.

End of a silent time

Well my time alone is drawing to a close. Tomorrow my father returns from his vacation. While I had a small portion of it off I am torn about his return. He is home but I get a break from the dog.   I have been busy turning out stories in the mean time. Charlie is getting ever closer to the end. I keep finding time to knock out short stories. Influenced by those authors I love both here on the site and those whose books I buy, I've written a number of things lately. I've gone in for vampires,

Trying Something New

As fall begins I would like to see just how much I really am writing. Comsie keeps saying I need to write more. So from now until Dec 21 I want to see how much I really am writing and editing. I'll figure out a fair method of counting later but today I --   Edited or rewrote   site help/   Basic Care Guide of Authors -- all parts   Community Blogs -- all parts     11 pages of a story.

Just Reminding People to Read

Okay, there are some people I know who read my stuff. I always say the best way to tell if you like an author's longer stuff is to check out their shorter stuff. There are so many wonderful things in the Fall Anthology. Nephy, Cia, Lugh, Frosty, Jian and so many others have put forth such totally different ideas when it comes to the word Legends. If you haven't read them, try them all. You never know when you might find a new author you want to read or stalk. And remember if you enjoy the work

Finally up and open for readers

Glad to see it now up and open for everyone:   https://www.gayauthors.org/story/w-l/reflection/1   Enjoy the reading, I also added a writer's commentary in my blog for the story, so you guys know why and what thoughts came up during my writing.   For horror readers, I hope that I at least gave you a taste of my kind of horror; psychological and knowledge based story.   For people looking for a tantalizingly sexual tale, it's my first foray into blending psych-horror, tell me what you guy

Insomnia

Insomnia haunts me and taunts me, Mind racing and chasing details of the day. Plans of tomorrow, no time to borrow, Always behind as time grinds, Past and future together in the breathless present.   I am so lost, I don't know the cost, Of the things that I've been or the things that I've seen, In the night they are burning bright, Restless azure darkness impaled, By the fires that rend the eternal night.   There is no peace when the wars never cease, even though its been over for d

Saturday and catching up

Okay so this is the second day I am off and alone and trying to get things cleaned up.   First, I realize now why I never replaced my dog, Fawn. Pets are wonderful stress relievers. They are there for you even when no one else is. They crave your love and attention and ask for nothing but food and water. However when they have been spoiled rotten and left with you to take care of you can also learn what a pain in the butt they are. My father's dog, which I am use to being around in small doses

OK so its been a while and I think some updating needs to be done. I'm still stuck here, but getting closer and closer to freedom. Ive been told I should seek freedom from here for myself. But that isnt reason enough. I like it here, its my life, my home. I have no reason to leave. With all the shit thats happening out there, i'm safe here. But I have one reason to leave now. And i'll fight every second of every day to get passed it.The weekends still scare me. Because I cant face the gate al

Funny Story

Okay, so I really really don't want to have to explain how i dislocated my shoulder to all the lovely people who have asked.   Howerver, I realise that I am not going to be able to avoid it... SO you can blame this blog on all those horrible people who care enough to beat me over the head with a baseball bat and force me to post this blog.   Warning TMI coming up and it won't be pretty.   Okay....

Twenty-Five Candles

so, today is my 25th birthday.   today is also 'R U OK?' Day.   these two facts would be mutually exclusive, except one of my friends inboxed everyone on my Facebook account and told them to ask me 'R U OK?' instead of wishing me a happy birthday.   so now I have 95 wall posts (and counting), all asking if I'm ok.   I also had the following interaction with my mother this morning:     it was somewhat amusing.   anyway, on the writing front, I can happily say that I sat down and pl

Me time and work time

I am not sure how to explain this without sounding like an idiot but here goes. Last year I moved home at my father's request so he wouldn't be alone. My mother had passed on the year before and to say me and my father get along, well it happens about as well as gasoline and a match. However, I being the person I am moved home. His health had taken a down swing and I didn't want him to have to deal with things alone.   When I moved home I wasn't even in the door 24 hours when he went on vacati
