Started a work out routine today to supplement riding my bike. Mostly because I'm over 40 and my regular day to day is wearing me down more than it used to. And I don't want to have to take Advil every day just to be able to go to work. So I did two circuits of 4 push ups 10 squats 30 second plank

It helps to have a regular rotation of content. Then you don't have to sit, staring at an empty screen, wondering what to write about.

Ask yourself, what would I say if this was something my best friend was saying to me? Then say it in the mirror to yourself.

My answer is kind of a cheat, but I went through a period when I wasn't writing stories. I wrote jokes instead.

Past for third person, always. I've used present for first person when it fits the story, but mostly past tense.

My rule of thumb is that I'm probably able to cut around 10% of a story, if I set my mind to it. More than that and I feel you risk impacting the story in a negative way. Yes, show don't tell. Yes, write tight. But we're artists and it's our job to present the story in an artistic way.

I use the German word luft for when hair is blown away from the forehead by a puff of air. I'm trying to get it to catch on, so I use it whenever possible.

I'm getting so close to being able to talk about the thing I want to talk about. I have more details and a date. What I don't have are the words, "Yes, you can announce it."

I had a similar feeling when my wife's people told me they were reading my stories and book. You'll be fine. You should be proud of your story. And thankful that your dad would support you like that.

In fact, I received no notification that it was being published on Fangoria's website. I only found out because I would check back periodically.

To kick it off, my first ever writing credit outside of college was for my story, "Pink Lemonade," which was a finalist for Fangoria's first ever Weird Words contest in 2010. As an intro to the wonderful world of publishing, I received no contract or pay for the story.
