Dream World and How to Remember Everything We Are Taught There?
I can honestly admit that years ago, I didn't believe in any celestial positions, and horoscopes were simply seen as social games because often they didn't match up. But since we all contain all the signs within us, we can find every sign within ourselves. What is happening in the recent energies, however, is directly related to the interpretations of astrologers. This, in turn, makes even someone like me, a semi-skeptic, believe that these celestial stones with their sensed attraction are influencing us in a significant way.

The Nashashi and the Evil Terrible Suroknoshnin!
In the sixth grade, I went with my family to see a new fantasy movie recently released in theaters. We sat down in the semi-comfortable chairs at my small-town theater. This was back in the day before reserved seats and my mother was always adamant on showing up at least half an hour early to the movies. Then the movie began. Trailers came and went, but no advertisements, this was before even those days, and soon the production studios' titles were flashing their logos while a sweeping orchestra set the mood with ominous music.

"The Evil Hairnet"
It all started with “The Evil Hairnet.” I have no idea where this story ended up, or if it even exists anymore, but I will always credit “The Evil Hairnet” as being my first piece of fiction and the beginning of my complicated relationship with the craft of writing.

Keep Calm & Write On!
"The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another." - William James Throughout the never-ending topsy-turvy fiasco that is my life, one of the silver linings was that I always had something interesting to write about. I may never have had a kid or a fancy wedding, and I've never bought a house or landed a dream job, but I've had my share of interesting moments throughout the craziness that has been my life, and those interesting and sometimes devastating moments brought with them inspiration to tell a story.
