Blog postTHE END: WRITING TIPS
My blog has been about Writing Tips for the past few weeks. Today we continue down the path of Writing Tips, and we’ll be exploring the moment you type: The End.
The End of summer is nigh.
See what I did there?
HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN IT ENDS?
Good question.
The Answer:
When the story is over.
SMART ASS
Okay, I was being flip.
Here is another a -

Blog postTHE MOST IMPORTANT WRITING LESSON
Today, the blog is covering what I believe to be the most important writing lesson any writer can ever learn. I know that is a big statement. “The most important writing lesson.” But I will fight you to the death if you say I am wrong.
Okay, maybe not to the death. The first one to loose his/her breath, maybe.
This lesson isn’t something I came up with. This isn’t my original idea. Many writers before me have preached this less -
Blog postWRITING LESSON EXAMPLE
THIS WRITING LESSON EXAMPLE BLOG IS GOING TO MAKE YOU A BILLION DOLLARS AND MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN STEPHEN KING!
Yeah, that’s a lie.
Truth:
This blog has been about teaching writing the past couple of weeks. Here, I’d like to feature a writing lesson example.
I’m using an unpublished chapter from the upcoming Crawler.
If you don’t know, I specialize in the vigilante thriller. I currently write the Douglas Gage Vigi -
Blog postGREAT THRILLER FICTION NOVELLAS!
I write Thriller Fiction.
It can also be called Crime Fiction.
Vigilante Fiction.
Suspense Fiction.
Action Adventure Fiction.
These reviews fell out of the sky today, and gave me a much needed boost while I wrestle with Crawler, trying to get it right.
Peter is an honest and very insightful critique.
He gave Take It Back, the first novella in the series 4, and Cash Money, the s -
Blog postHow To Write Fiction: FOR THE READER? ‘Cause I Got Like A Daytime Emmy and Stuff All Up In Here
Welcome to another lesson on How To Write Fiction.
To remind you: I’m using extra chapters cut from Crawler, the upcoming 5th installment of the Take It Back series, to point out some of the steps I take in my writing.
So instead of my crazy Security Tips, the blog is going to be a How To Write Fiction blog, and by default, a FREE FICTION blog, giving away sc -
Blog postUsing Crawler to Teach How To Write Fiction There is a school of thought that How To Write Fiction cannot be taught.
One is either born with the talent: one basically already knows How To Write Fiction…
Or not born with the talent: so they will never know How To Write Fiction.
These people believe education can only bring out the best in those already born with the ability to be a writer.
Conversely, at best, education can only make less horrid the complete -
Blog post
How To Write Fiction (For the short term, I’m switching gears from Security Tips to How To Write Fiction. The big difference will be the How To Write Fiction material will be legit, educational presentations, while the Security Tips material has been more humor based, if not out and out insane.)
Crawler has yet to be published on Amazon because something in my lizard brain is telling me it isn’t ready yet.
To make it up to the one person out there waiting to re -
Blog post“Mr. Vigilante Thriller writer. Where do you get your ideas?”
I’ve been asked that question my whole writing career. Long before I became a writer of the Douglas Gage Vigilante Thriller.
It started when I was in third grade and I wrote sketches to perform for my class. I got asked the questions continually when I was a stand-up comic.
And when I was writing for daytime dramas, it I got asked the question A LOT!
