Things I’m Doing: Auditioning Word Processors

Written with OmmWriter for my MacBook Pro. I keep reading that writers can be more productive and creative in a “distraction free” environment and everyone was going crazy silly about OmmWriter. I have a full time job. Selling stuff. I dream of being a… Continue Reading “Things I’m Doing: Auditioning Word Processors”

Things I Wonder: Is it Really Thursday, Already?

Why does my HP Mini laptop have a power chord with three prongs and the cord is thicker and more industrial looking than most of the cords on my power tools? How did it get to be Thursday, already. I had many goals for… Continue Reading “Things I Wonder: Is it Really Thursday, Already?”
