163. Typewriter Dreaming - How A Typewriter Helped My Writing
November 14, 2012
I'm typing this on a typewriter. It's obviously undergone some format changes since, but the original copy was drafted on a good old-fashioned typewriter. And not just any typewriter: an Olivetti Lettera 32, the same model that could be heard chattering away in any news office, bureau, trench, cafe,...

164. Writer's Block Is A Choice
November 13, 2012
In a recent article I surprised myself by saying: "Writer's block is a choice. It isn't a villain who shackles you and then either decides to free you or to keep you in his evil clutches.

165. Writing That (Almost) Perfect Poem Using Imagery

166. Plotting A Children's Book
November 09, 2012
In a previous article I explained the ideas behind some of my children's books.

169. Why Use A Ghostwriter
November 06, 2012
You're an expert in your subject matter. You know it inside and out. You can explain it, present it, analyze it ... but can you write about it? Not sure? Don't have the time or inclination?

170. So You're Thinking About Becoming A Freelance Writer
November 05, 2012
You would think that writing is writing. You would think that just because you are doing it in freelance mode rather than under contract to a publication or advertising firm, for example, that it's the same thing. You would think, huh?
