Here is a collection of some of my own words that have helped me find my wide open spaces. The published work has, of course, been through the rigorous process of editing. These pieces are relatively polished and can be found online at the publisher's site. The unpublished work is another story. All of these pieces have been edited heavily by yours truly. But few have had the scrutiny of outside readers. These are all works in progress, you could say. But I offer them as more evidence that the journey to the wide open spaces really is that. A journey. Full of bumps on the road and detours. I hope these help you on your own journey, and as you're reading, if you think of something that might help me, let me know.

Words on Words

This weblog is a journal specifically on the process and projects of writing -- a wide open space, to be sure. But a directed space linked closely to the craft of putting the words down on paper. In other words, this is writing about writing.
