The Backstory Part 1

I’ve decided to try writing a blog here—since I’m getting nowhere with the book I’ve been working on. This entry is my backstory—it’s on my website as the first half of “The Backstory”—and I’ve written it at least partly to remind myself of all the books I’ve written—yes, I have managed to pull books together in the past even though that skill eludes me now. How did I do that? Why did I do it? An Read more of this blog post »
