Writer Tamago

Unusually, I'm going to break Eric's interview into two parts. Eric was kind enough to answer my questions about self/indie/e- publishing very extensively, and they will end up in another entry that really helps define the differences for me. First, however, I'd like to introduce you to Eric and his work. Tamago: When did you [...]

Books linked here, and also in the menu at the top of the page. More are always welcome. Catherine

I've compiled a page of writing workshop links that you've sent. If you can think of any others I ought to add, please let me know. Here's an easy link for your easy reference. You will also be able to find it in the menu bar at the top of the page. List o' books [...]

This is a lesson I've had to learn the hard way. If you really read this blog entry by Lena Coakley, maybe you won't have to reinvent the wheel. There wasn't time to write a real entry for today. I'm trying to batten down a few more Norway details, which I also plan to share. [...]

Work is full of little niggly bits today, which are the legacy of being absent last week. I have blocked out some time to disappear and work on the coordinator's manual, which really needs to be whipped into shape before I am out of the office this summer for a real vacation. So...less office action [...]

Yay, spouse gifts! *grumble, grumble* *** Anywhoo, while I am still amassing my book and workshop suggestions for you all, I thought I would talk about the next thing that I [...]

First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for sending in their education links. I'm an educator. It's the kind of thing I like. I'll give it about a week, and then I'll post the various workshops and make a bibliography of the books. Keep 'em coming! *** As most of you know, I spent [...]

First though, a public service announcement on behalf of Benjamin Tate: *** To cut to the chase, at the bottom of the post, I'm asking you to help me accumulate a list of workshops and books about writing. I'm going to put these up on the Tamago for writers who are interested. The more you [...]

Kris Herndon is a prolific writer of both fiction and nonfiction. The real world isn't good enough for me, either, Kris, and I look forward to seeing your creations of a better one. Tamago: How did you decide you wanted to become a writer? Kris: Writing is almost like an involuntary thing for me. I [...]
