It has been a long time since I posted here, so I guess I will cast some digital seeds of wisdom and do some catching up.
The Big News is that I am now working on my Master of Arts in Creative Writing. It won't be an easy road ahead, but it will be one that I choose and love. Most folks I work with assumed it would be some IT related degree, but that is not what I want to do when I grow up. I have other plans. I am pretty sick of the "Good Ol' Boys" Club that is IT and the rampant misogyny. Not every man in IT is a douche bag, but there are a good many.
Today started building my writing brand under my pen name. I have lined up my social media pages and feeds under it and I just need to build the site and get some samples up there. I will start by writing a weekly novella of sorts. Serialize a story and see who finds it and becomes attached to it. It is the best way to get feedback and improve.
I am very excited about this time of transition and I look forward to building on a new foundation. The camaraderie of the professional writing community is a breath of fresh air.
Anyway, off to get back to work on my new "house". :-)
