Worst Cupcake Ever!

Have you ever coveted the most beautiful cupcake in the world only to have it be… well, yucky? (Yet another food fail!)

Have you ever had writers block or wondered how writers deal with that dreaded affliction?

Well guess what? Jacqueline Gardner is asking a bunch of writers (as part of her WAW–Writers Are We–series) all sorts of fabulous questions about inspiration, why people write, what a writer’s workspace looks like and… wait for it… cupcakes!

Jacqueline has me talking about the worst cupcake ever over on her blog and we’d really enjoy hearing your cupcake/cake stories or what you find inspiring. Best cupcake ever? Worst?

See you there!

Book Review: Zen and the Art of Writing

Book Review for Zen and the Art of Writing
By Ray Bradbury

Broken into essays on writing that spans over 19 years, this book is a gem of inspiration and passion. You can tell Bradbury loved to write. Truly. As in, leave a rip-roaring time to hurry home and put a story to paper. Zen and the Art of Writing covers subjects from feeding and keeping a muse, finding inspiration, using life in your stories, how the brain stores things for later, and of course, never giving up. The man gathered an impression rejection pile in his time. If you are looking for a little inspiration, the first few essays in this book are sure to do the trick.
