Has It Been That Long?

So, it’s been a month since I’ve posted in this space.  This seems weird to me, since I’ve been writing stuff pretty much every day for The Cincinnati Man and tending to the writing of others over there.  This isn’t necessarily the sort of thing that I studied for in college, but I’ve gotta say, [...]

Dear Cruel World

No, this isn’t quite a suicide note.  It is, however, a bit of information.  You won’t be finding the kind of posts I’ve been dropping at this space for too much longer.  I’ve started working on a new website with a different name, and a couple other folks posting things.  Essentially, it’s an online men’s [...]

On Trying to Write

As someone who writes, I have to admit something.  The act of writing is, for me, invariably something of an ordeal.  On one hand, the act of finishing a story, at least its first draft, is incredibly satisfying.  On another, the trouble I have to put myself through to simply stay in one spot in [...]
