There comes a time in every writers life when you have to take a character and throw him into the worst possible situation ever. Those times are really tough to write, especially if that character is a particular favorite of yours.

Character Development
Posted in writing on April 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
When I sit down to write, I tend not to plan. To me, it seems that if a story is going to work, it’s because the story already there. It just needs to get put down on paper. No planning necessary.
A while back I had found this website. I was thinking of using it for [...]
Teens in the Library

It always amazes me the resistance I come across when it comes to outreaching to teens at my job. I work at a library and it is a librarians job and duty to help all people. At least, that is my thought. Yet, when it comes to teenagers, there are a lot of people who [...]

One of the things I have noticed working in a library and just shopping is the children. Every time I see a child screaming in a story, or running around, or just generally being out of control, I am grateful for my mother.
I hear so many people my age, who don’t ever spank their child, [...]
