An Explanation.

Yes, yes, I’m a novelist.  But if you keep writing novels long enough, you generally build up a lot of non-novel pieces of writing as former generations of writers tended to collect pencil shavings. I’ve taught writing classes, given public speeches, directed workshops, been on panels, written speeches for other (better) speakers, researched white papers, run blogs, and also written more than my share of articles both for readers and for other writers.

I’ve also moved through life for more years than I care to lay claim to, and that tends to provide experience of its own that adds to the pile quite without my intending it to.  I’m quite sure this list will continue to grow, too.

Most of articles, essays, and general meanderings are here, arranged in some sort of order so you can find them of use, if you’re game to venture among them.  In August 2010 I had to split the single page in four subpages simply to contain and manage the hoard.  Start by picking the sub-page you want to jump to. You can always come back here and wander off again.

Many of the acticles refer to the term anchored author. You may well wonder what that is.  This article here will explain:  ”What the hell is an anchored author?”
