Realizing a dream: Writing a WordPress book
My journey to become a published author and how the WordPress community has made this possible.
D is for dangerously diving doves
This edition of the ABCs of Writing is the fifth post in the series. I’ll cover the usage of things that fall under the “D” category. Note that some of these things, mostly the sections covering usage of numbers, strictly abide by the AP Stylebook. There are other style guides, but I’ve found that AP [...]
C is for commonly confusing commas
This article in the ABCs of Writing series covers the letter “C,” which means that I’m writing about the comma. It’s the most dangerous part of English, yet it’s the most useful. I had to transform myself into a grammar Nazi to write about the comma because even I don’t always use it correctly. This [...]
B is for “because” because “because” is used badly
I’ve searched every inch of my brain to come up with something to write about on the letter “B.” There are not as many common mistakes with this letter as “A,” but I’ve put together some material to browse. For this new edition of the The ABCs of Writing, I’ll walk you through a few [...]

I’ve posted two new stories in the writings section tonight. This morning, I finally sent my resume and sample writings to the Union Springs Herald. I’m applying [...]
Justin Tadlock On Writing
This is a little something I wrote to help me out with a presentation in Fiction Writing I. I gave each student in the class a copy of this and a copy of “Claws.” My teacher actually asked me if she could use this to show other classes. Interview With Aspiring Author Justin Tadlock On [...]
He’ll Always Be Papa
This is who my grandfather is and who he will always be for me. He inches slyly toward me, hiding something in his hand. I am sitting on the floor of the living room, leaning against a recliner. Bending slightly at the hips and knees, he lowers himself enough to slip me a $100 bill. [...]
