 If there was such a thing as a “normal” sex and fetish club, Power Exchange wasn’t it.  Victoria had seen more than her unfair share of sex establishments and she worked hard to make sure hers was something above and beyond.  Power Exchange was a full service, high class, meeting, greeting, and sometimes play place [...]

MY FUNNY DAD, HARRY
 
FOREWORD
I have so many funny memories of things my dad, Harrington Arlettaz (Harry), did that I decided to write this book in his memory as a tribute to him. This book is not only about my dad, but also about me, life and aging and how we deal with it. I kept [...]

 
               INT. LIMO JUST OUTSIDE THE RECEPTION — LATER

               bright promise of the future.  Jane rolls up the windows
               after waving goodbye.  The interior darkens.  Dick looks
               lovingly at Jane.  The driver lusts in the mirror at Jane.

So many ways to write; so many theories, tools, tricks, software, concepts and almost none of them create the necessary motivation to keep writing when you are doing it from home.  Oh sure, I know that when I was in college and law school, it was easy to use my writing to avoid my homework.  [...]

Eddie’s living room was mostly unchanged from when Candy died at his feet. Soda still stained the carpet in a long-term tribute to Eddie’s hatred of cleaning and Candy’s final breath.  The few changes in the room were paid for with the surprise insurance payment; the largest and most expensive was a fifty-inch plasma television [...]

I have been thinking a lot about being a writer and what “type” of writer I am lately.  What with the blog post on “It’s All Write to Blog” and working on my methods for writing and my bits of well intentioned suggestions on how to go about the craft, well, one’s mind does tend [...]

(How I get killer visualizations and shorter more cohesive story lines)
As you might have guessed (if you have read any of my other posts) I just ain’t normal. Ask my Mom, Ex-wife, Professors, and most anyone who knows me, I definitely do things differently. On the upside to that, I [...]

It was, to any eye, an odd threesome; the two patients and their therapist.  Bill Susman sat and glowered at his pathetic luck in life.  He realized that he was a touch too slick and not quite handsome enough.  He was just a middle-aged insurance salesman in the waning days of his ability to stand [...]

Review of The Screenwriter’s Bible by David Trottier - 5 @@@@@ at-a-boys As first seen on BlogCritics Magazine. Writer Boy was having a less than thrilling realization. As an emerging writer and not a fella who felt he had yet conquered his chosen craft of being a wordsmith, he had been [...]

               INT. CHURCH — MORNING
               Sunlight floods through the windows onto the perfect wedding.
               Dick pulls Jane to him, she kisses him carefully.  They walk
               back down the aisle.  Dick smiles like a lottery winner and
               Jane makes eye contact with guests.

I have written non-fiction, Fiction, Screenplays, Short Stories, Legal Articles and more. Some have been printed, some sold, most ignored and some I remain hopeful on.
