Maybe it isn’t like this for all writers. Maybe I just do things the hard way, but I’ll admit that I hate writing close to 100% of the time. The process is laborious and I’m too slow at it. I hate that my fingers and my mind can’t keep up with the essence of what I want to communicate. Then, of course, there are the times that I have to look up the spelling, definition and/or exciting synonym of a word, which only slows the process down even more. And who can forget the rewriting process that can sometimes be longer than the initial writing? That’s not to say that I always hate writing. On the rare occasion, the planets align just as the Moon’s gravity waxes or wanes to the perfect complement and I’m able to string together a phrase that hits all the right notes and, more importantly, says exactly what I wanted to say.

In the end, perfect movies are those rare gems that don’t leave you wanting.

In my younger days, I was a pretty shy kid. I did, however, have a wild imagination, which I allowed to consume me when no one was around. I’d run around the house fighting imaginary monsters or go adventuring off in some fantastic land. I was extremely extroverted in my introverted-ness, if there is such [...]
