I used to measure my writing by quantity. My record was just over 3500 words in a sitting. But now with a dozen novels that haven't made we wealthy, I write for quality. I craft every page into something I can be proud of.
I'm done writing for the entertainment of others. Now I write for me.

"I'd be nervous meeting the first man who thought it'd be a good idea to ride a bull."
"That man might be worth meeting. It's the second man I'd be worried about."

A troll on Twixxer threatened to take me down by having his followers write bad reviews on my books on Amazon.
His strategy backfired because I've got five new positive reviews since he threatened to take me down. Seems some of my formerly silent readers saw his post.
THANK YOU!

Within the singularity of each black hole lies the potential for creation. Though not worshipped, their power was respected with quiet awe as the grave of dead solar systems transformed into a fountain of new life.
Black holes were mankind's gods now.

Walking Dead. Watching it through for the 3rd time and just noticed that the feather in Ezekiel's dreads changes colour depending on the story line; red for war, white for peace, black for hard times

Recently watched an interview with Robert Plant regarding JRR Tolkien who was Robert's neighbour as a child.
TLOTR inspired some of Robert's songs including; "Ramble On," "Misty Mountain Hop," and "The Battle of Evermore."
I'm now reading it again.

Found another Walking Dead/Breaking Bad easter egg;
The motorhome Negan takes Rick for his loyalty test ("Bring back my axe") is a Bounder. The same one Walt and Jesse began their meth business in.

My therapist told me to write letters to all the people I hated and why I felt that way, then burn them.
I did and I feel better. But I don't know what to do with the letters now.

After years gone by I'm reading Kurt Vonnegut Jr's 'Galapagos' again, and am delighted to rediscover what a literary anarchist he was.
