R.E. (Robert) Murphy is the author of the fantasy series The Blue Diamonds Saga. Born on a US Air Force Base in the Philippines in the late '70s, he grew up traveling(as all military brats do) from places as varied as Utah, Colorado, Turkey, and eventually Hawaii, where his travel halted due to his parents catching a mortal bout of the divorce epidemic.

In hindsight, he admits that it wasn't the worst place in the world to be a latchkey kid and one of the kinder places to learn the hard knocks of life. He survived paradise, and along the way, he served a short stint in the US Army Reserves, attended a college surrounded by jungle rainforest, became one of the best(self-proclaimed) cooks in Waikiki, and last but not least, met the love of his

Eating cheetos, and pacing.
While doing so, I review the current situation and visualize how the character(s) in the story came to where they are, whether to mean a location or an event. It really helps to pinpoint a character's feelings, any character, and what they might want to happen next.
I write that.
Sometimes, I write the opposite.

Neil Gaiman
“I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.

Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.

So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.

Whatever it is you're scared of doing, Do it.

Make your mistakes, next year and forever.”
Neil Gaiman
