For as long as he can remember, Michael Rupured has loved to write. Before he learned the alphabet, he filled page after page with rows of tiny little circles he now believes were his first novels and has been writing ever since.

He’s received numerous awards and honors over the years and is a Distinguished Fellow of the Association for Financial

After the writing begins, the characters come to life at some point and take the story in unexpected and often surprising directions. I get lost and/or stall out because the story in progress is not the story I set out to write. Enter writer's block. I've learned to just keep writing. After false starts and a few stumbles into blind alleys, eventually I find my way to the end.(less)

Hummingbird Watching

My nephew gave me a hummingbird feeder for Christmas several years ago. It’s not the first I’ve had, but it’s definitely the nicest. It hangs just off the patio and is clearly visible from my spot in the living room.

In the past, I mixed enough sugar water (one part sugar to four parts water) to fill the feeder. More often than not, the contents fermented before the birds had time to consume it. Mi
