Words are the energy that keeps your mind functioning. Discipline is the driver. In other words, discipline is not an expression, it means action. It should never stop and for me it will continue until the last day of life. The love of writing takes over my body, spirit, and mind. There is no sorrow, regret or disappointment.

Background

The psychology of working with people creates opportunity for lifestyle embellishments in the world of fiction that includes many forms, science fiction, and mystery are but an example. At the same time, this allows the resource of the mind to look beyond the stars for tomorrow’s future. There are no limits, be it above earth or below the sky and even underneath the blue waters. Drawing from history, photography, music, or even the sciences guide the interests that become captivating. This moves the person into that facade. Current events turn into history that guides the future by allowing the thought process to move into the next stage. Creating concepts of what the mind’s eye sees is what a writer’s life replicates. Every stop, every thought, leads the intellect to continue.
Technology with imagination completes the cycle of a writer; this evaluation has grown through many years of put words into a deep desire. Writing is never a lonely art form if you allow it to enchant what your perception offers. My rules in the creative process have increased through time similar to vintage wine. There a good years and there are acceptable years, but the strength is always moving forward. This never stops until there is no path of air running through the body and spirit. I like to phrase Joseph Conrad. Illusion: “Words, as is well known, are great foes of reality”.
