Process

Looking back
I started writing long before I signed up to Vocal, but I have always struggled to stay focused and motivated. The appeal of Vocal Media was the ability to self-publish. Prior to finding this platform, my options were to post on social media or just keep my writing to myself until I produced a full manuscript. Neither option appealed to me. I have worked out over the years that one of my weaknesses is my lack of attention span. I tend to be easily distracted and do not enjoy sitting still for any length of time. I have often found that if I get stuck on a section of a story or writing project, if I walk away and change my activity, I can compose what I want in my head and return to finish the segment to my satisfaction.

Burnout Is Real
In every creative field, there is a phenomenon. A kind of "hitting a wall", where the creator - that's you and me - feels their creative muse take a hiatus. The wellspring of one's creative juices just runs dry one day, and no amount of drilling, priming, praying or begging can make them flow again. You might feel tired or frustrated, like you want to write but you either can't or everything that comes out of your pen would be perfectly at home in the bottom of a cattle chute. If any of the above describes how you're feeling right now, congratulations: you're suffering from burnout.

My First Story
I was twelve when I self-published my first story. Don't get too excited, I was twelve. My stories were mostly Goosebumps knock-offs or Replica fanfiction or a mix of the two. Still, I loved it.

My Writing Process
While everyone is different, I know we all, on occasion, suffer from writer's block. Some days I feel like I can't find any inspiration or motivation at all. On the flip side, however, there are times when my mind will produce fleeting thoughts and ideas at such a rapid pace that I can hardly keep up. This may be a problem at times since I’m not focused on one thing in particular. Writing assists me in taking a more complete and in-depth look at some of the fleeting thoughts I might have.

Reflecting on Silver Line of Power
My first and favorite story, Silver Line of Power. Today, I’m writing about a literary journey. These are my thoughts on my first story "Silver Line of Power," which was based on a dream I had when I was nine. I had seen several western and civil war movies, and always thought it would be cool to grow up in the cowboy era. I made a quick note of my dream in my dream journal, but didn’t actually start writing it as a story until I was 14.

Publishing your book through a Publisher
Every would-be writer's dream would be to write a book, publish it, get a movie deal, and live life like Dean Koontz. Mine included. So when I finished my book, Memoirs of the In-Between, and it was accepted by Page Publishing on the first submission, I was beyond the moon.
