Okay, it's not my usual review, I admit it. I read "10 Minute Toughness: The Mental Training Program For Winning Before the Game Begins." I'm not going to give an in-depth analysis this time. I'm going to explain it a bit differently: I find running on the treadmill BORING. I do. I come up with … Continue reading Writer Wednesday…Jason Selk

Writer Wednesday…Ciara Ballintyne
Today's Writer Wednesday subject is the Fantasy author Ciara Ballintyne. I "met" Ciara on Twitter, and just read her novel "Confronting the Demon." Her main character, Alloran, is a wizard on the run. As he pushes through the very unique challenges and dangers facing him, he manages to still be a "regular" man, someone we … Continue reading Writer Wednesday…Ciara Ballintyne
Writer Wednesday…Eric B. Thomasma
I am not what's commonly thought of as a "visual" person. If you are describing something (anything, really) that I have not seen or experienced before, you need to be very detailed in order for me to "see" the picture you are painting with your words. Enter Eric B. Thomasma. Eric already has published 9 … Continue reading Writer Wednesday…Eric B. Thomasma
Writer Wednesday…Excerpt
Since it is Writer Wednesday, and I have been living in the editing phase of my life for several weeks, I thought I would share an excerpt from "Blessings." In this scene, we meet one of my favorite characters. 😉 If you know me in real life, this will make perfect sense to you. “Dad, … Continue reading Writer Wednesday…Excerpt
Writer Wednesday…Marcia J. Kenyon
As a poet, I tend to write in free verse. I rhyme very rarely. My thoughts don't come to me as music, and so I am consistently impressed by my fellow poets who can do just that - and beautifully. Marcia J. Kenyon is one. I read "The Butterfly Collection" several months ago, and have … Continue reading Writer Wednesday…Marcia J. Kenyon

Today's writer is Sara Kocek, who is an author and editor from Texas. She also is married to a high school friend of mine, which is how I heard about her YA novel "Promise Me Something." If I had to sum up Sara Kocek's writing in one word, that word would be: FEARLESS. "Promise Me … Continue reading Writer Wednesday – Sara Kocek
Writer Wednesday – Michael R. Hicks
I have to say that I really enjoy Twitter. It has completely broadened the number of authors I read, and given me the opportunity to discover new authors I would have otherwise missed. Michael Hicks is one such author. About, oh - what seems like a million years ago, when I was sick - Michael … Continue reading Writer Wednesday – Michael R. Hicks
Writer Wednesday – Malaina “Miserlu” White…
"I am a real person." ~ Miserlu What do you get when you combine a woman facing changes in her life with unflinching honesty, all while chronicling her journey towards self rediscovery? You get the phenomenal blog "Reconstructing Malaina." This blog deals with more adult content, and so is not geared towards the youthful readers. … Continue reading Writer Wednesday – Malaina “Miserlu” White…
Writer Wednesday – Chris Rafferty, Screenwriter
I am so fortunate to know some extremely talented people! Chris Rafferty just so happens to be one of them, luckily for me. While I was sick, Chris was looking for people to volunteer to read one of his screenplays. People, I was totally hooked! I am sure I drove him crazy with my nearly … Continue reading Writer Wednesday – Chris Rafferty, Screenwriter
