After many years, I have come to the conclusion that writer's block is just a way of that scene or chapter telling me that it is not ready to be written yet. Either go work on something else or work around the trouble spot and that usually solves the problem. But, by all means, keep writing.

Write every day. Find the time that works best for you and write. The more you do it, the better you'll get. Writers are people who write.

I am finishing up a novel I have been working on off and on for 37 years. I feel it is time to get it done. The title is called "Mountain Cross".

I don't really. From my perspective, the stories find me. I am just writing them down as a form of dictation. Fortunately, the stories that find me are largely good stories!

The idea started with the movie "Tomorrowland" back in 2015. The early scenes set at the 1964 New York World's Fair reminded me of my childhood when the future looked like it was going to be a "great big beautiful tomorrow". And I still believe that. So I started asking myself why I believed that and I came to the conclusion that I believe that because of what I learned watching "The Wonderful World of Disney" as a kid. So I started wondering what else I learned from the show and it started snowballing from there.
