SEO and Blog Writing Evangelism

We went to the Ewomen networking lunch in Orange County yesterday. I’m usually not a huge fan of networking events, as they can so often take on the air of desperation. But I know they are a fact of life in business these days and so when I’m in LA, I usually allow Mary-Suzanne to […]

LA: It’s a Different Writing World

When it comes to writing, LA is a different world. Actually, when it comes to everything, LA is a different world. But that is a topic for another time. The LA writing world revolves around screenplays (duh). If, as a writer, you are not writing a screenplay, pitching one, writing a treatment, or sleeping with […]

Writing: Process, Not Product

One of the things I have to remind myself over and over and over again about writing is: process not product. If I focus on the process of writing a piece, allow myself to be fully engaged in it and the moment and enjoy just writing, the words flow. They may not be perfect words–as […]

Travel Writing

Creative Commuting

I’m in LA this week, to see clients and friends. I flew down here yesterday on the first Alaska flight out of Portland on Monday morning, and the back of the plane was full of creative commuters. Besides moi, there was the Danish screenwriter that I sat next to. Across the way, a man was […]

Quel Disaster

This is just awful. My fabulous new blog network, on which I had two blogs, Powered by Books and Powered by Writing, crashed and burned this afternoon. They had a power outage for a few hours and somewhere in the midst of that the software completely compromised itself. These are the nicest people and they […]
