Writing Wench: August 2013
http://writingwench.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Plotting Something Since 1963. Friday, August 2, 2013. I am struggling with a decision. Do I continue working a difficult temporary job or quit and devote myself to a technical book I'm writing with David, a novel I need to send out again, one I need to finish, one I need to get going on, and a non-fiction book I'm editing? The first book has a buyer, the last is by a previously published writer, Geraldine Williams. The link shows one of three books she wrote or co-wrote.). Thursday, August 1, 2013.
Writing Wench: ADHD: Is anyone really surprised?
http://writingwench.blogspot.com/2015/06/adhd-is-anyone-really-surprised.html
Plotting Something Since 1963. Thursday, June 25, 2015. ADHD: Is anyone really surprised? The characteristics I found most telling:. Trouble listening to someone, even when they are speaking directly to you, like your mind is somewhere else. Difficulty in organizing an activity or task needing to get done (e.g., poor time management, fails to meet deadlines, difficulty managing sequential tasks). Interrupt or intrude on others, such as butting into their conversation or taking over what others are doing.
Writing Wench: Yoga Teaches Me Something I Didn't Expect
http://writingwench.blogspot.com/2015/08/yoga-teaches-me-something-i-didnt-expect.html
Plotting Something Since 1963. Thursday, August 13, 2015. Yoga Teaches Me Something I Didn't Expect. Today, I started what I thought of as an intense yoga practice- back to class at Red Sun Yoga. Instead of practicing at home with advice from Charlotte at Yoga Flavored Life. I got there ten minutes before class. Jenn showed me where to put my things, and I finally put my mat down. And then picked it up to move closer, because it was just the two of us. I thought I would get an "intense" experience, but i...
Writing Wench: November 2013
http://writingwench.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Plotting Something Since 1963. Tuesday, November 5, 2013. A Quote from Ezra Adams, ex-slave from South Carolina. Ezra Adams was 83 when he told a Works Progress Administration interviewer about his time on the plantation of Lawrence Adams. He was clearly a writer who missed his time. Here's an excerpt:. With every sharp and cold wind of trouble that blowed, more leaves of that tree turned loose and went to the ground, just like they was trying to follow her. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Miami Freeze: A Memoir: A Conversation with Moisés Alburquerque
http://miamifreeze.blogspot.com/2010/09/conversation-with-moises-alburquerque.html
Miami Freeze: A Memoir. Friday, September 3, 2010. A Conversation with Moisés Alburquerque. Tom Wallace: You had a number of positive experiences in the US after you arrived in the Mariel boatlift, but eventually you wound up homeless. Moisés: Right, I was living on the streets of Little Havana for a while. I lived under an overpass. Tom: What kind of place was Little Havana at the time? Tom: So to be homeless there—. Tom: Why did you stay there? Tom: But was that place dangerous for you personally?
The Ten Mistakes | Holt Uncensored: Patricia Holt on Books and the Publishing Revolution
http://www.holtuncensored.com/hu/the-ten-mistakes
Ten Mistakes Writers Don’t See (But Can Easily Fix When They Do). Like many editorial consultants, I’ve been concerned about the amount of time I’ve been spending on easy fixes that the author shouldn’t have to pay for. The list also could be called, “10 COMMON PROBLEMS THAT DISMISS YOU AS AN AMATEUR,” because these mistakes are obvious to literary agents and editors, who may start wording their decline letter by page 5. What a tragedy that would be. So here we go:. For Jack Kerouac’s crutch word in On t...
Miami Freeze: A Memoir: Out of Cuba Part One
http://miamifreeze.blogspot.com/2010/08/out-of-cuba-part-one.html
Miami Freeze: A Memoir. Friday, August 20, 2010. Out of Cuba Part One. Look below to see the Spanish translation]. Chamizo came to my house on April 20, 1980 and asked me if I was aware of what was happening in Havana. Yes, I was aware. But I told him to say nothing in my house, and that we should go to the park where it would be easier for us to talk. It was a sensitive topic. 8220;Moisés, you long-hair you! Get yourself to Peru! Finally a military bus came through the neighborhood to collect people for...
Miami Freeze: A Memoir: July 2010
http://miamifreeze.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Miami Freeze: A Memoir. Thursday, July 29, 2010. My name is Moisés Alburquerque, but my friends in the Cuban military called me. It comes from the same root as the English word. It means someone who’s just beginning to explore or experience something new—just beginning to find his way. As my buddies used it, it might be roughly translated as. Me llamo Moisés Alburquerque, pero mis amigos en el Ejército Cubano me llamaban. Posted by Tom Wallace. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). All Hail the Deacon!
Miami Freeze: A Memoir: Forbidden Fruit
http://miamifreeze.blogspot.com/2010/10/forbidden-fruit.html
Miami Freeze: A Memoir. Friday, October 15, 2010. Here’s the irony of it. I was inspired to leave communist Cuba by the wealth of the Soviets. The Russians might have thought Cuba was exotic, but to me everything they had was new and strange and wonderful. They must have thought mangos were an amazing fruit. I felt the same way about the grapes they gave me. I had no idea what to call them, but I knew they were delicious. What else did I need to know? We were once again starving. And that old rusted ...

Miami Freeze: A Memoir. Saturday, September 11, 2010. Cocaine Cowboys and I. As Tom and I work on writing this book, and more people find out about my former life in Miami, they ask me about the documentary,. They want to know two things. First, was life in Miami really like that back in the 80s? I guess that depends on how you count. Would I go back to those times? No Everything in those days was me, me, me. And in the process of pursuing what was best for me, I lost myself. The money? Cocaine Cowboys: ...
Miami Freeze: A Memoir: September 2010

Miami Freeze: A Memoir. Friday, September 24, 2010. I said in a previous post that I never encountered any problems when making deliveries of cocaine for Fabio, my boss. That’s true, but one event—let’s say—made me wonder. I guess people will form their own opinions about that one. These Marielitos I delivered to in Kissimmee? But there was a girl with them. Her name was Blanca. In Spanish, Blanca means. She was so beautiful, but she was so bad. Posted by Tom Wallace. Friday, September 17, 2010. No Every...

Welcome to Writing Well | For Massachusetts Inmates in Reentry
Welcome to Writing Well. For Massachusetts Inmates in Reentry. They laughed when I sat down to write a résumé. Then I got a good-paying job. How do you feel when a job application asks you to tell us about yourself, or an advertisement requires you to email a résumé and cover letter? How comfortable are you writing a memo to your boss, a report, or proposal? If you are nervous about it, you are not alone. That is why you often hear about professional writers suffering from writer’s block. January 27, 2014.

Tales of the writing werewolf
Tales of the writing werewolf. Friday, June 12, 2015. A review of Hard Day's Knight. By John G. Hartness. Hard Day’s Knight is a catchy title for a catchy book. Honestly, when this part first came up, I couldn’t help but picture Jack Black, dressed up in the Adam West-era Batman suit while dangling from a bat-rope. Http:/ www.amazon.com/Hard-Days-Knight-Black-Chronicles-ebook/dp/B004GB17G0/ref=sr 1 3? Monday, June 8, 2015. At first, I thought Thieftaker would be a tale of just another paranormal detectiv...
