Writing About Writing

​

When I launched my avocation as a self-published author way back in 2013, I introduced myself via a blog (remember those?) called Headfirst Into the Deep End. I used it as a vehicle to share musings about writing, the writing process, a handful of short-short stories, some rants, and sundry other observations about the world in general. Now I've decided to make a home for them here, in my own little corner of the interwebz.

​​

Many of these observations are woefully obsolete, with the most recent dating to 2023. However, I am in the process of updating them and, perhaps by archiving them here, I'll give myself latitude to create and upload new, more pertinent brain drippings. Hopefully you'll find something useful or even entertaining in them.
