Nothing Goes As Planned… And That’s Okay
It’s been a minute. Well, 525,600 minutes — give or take a few. (Do you have that song stuck in your head now?) Being a writer is a funny thing. One is free to call themselves a writer whether they have any skill in the craft or not. One can even call himself a writer if he never writes, I ... Continue Reading
