All the texts I’ve recently published in The Slow Burn have been born from a desire to share and inspire. I emphasize this because I recognize that it wasn’t always like this. In the past, when I called myself a publicist and entrepreneur, my writing was often driven by a need to build my personal […]
Write a poem. A novel. A short story. Write a song. A blog entry. An original idea. An equation. Writing a tweet. A new element. Writing is a curiosity. I have been days with my fingertips away from the keyboard. My head, [...]
