Although I’ve not always been consistent in doing so, I’ve often said that my motto is to “write the world”. In thinking about the premise of that, I am inclined to think first that it is about writing the world the way you would have it to be. Write your …
Although it happens pretty frequently when I’m in the flow and doing what I think I should be doing, I’m always amazed when synchronicity occurs. For instance, I’ve been meaning to starting going through my book How to Survive an Estralarian Mind Meld and release it through my blog so …
I wrote this poem for The Cowboy Cabaret, but I also use it in Will Rogers Revived, although, I haven’t yet added the musical component to Will. I’m pretty sure Garth Brooks would dig it though. It’s a difficult thing to find the solutions to problems that we’ve made …
