I'm excited to be here!
A little about myself:
I'm married with three kids and a wonderful and supporting wife. I work fulltime as an IT Salesperson.
I'm a bit of an odd duck. I consider myself a writer, but its not my passion. My true passion is teaching people how to structure their novels correctly.
When I started studying writing years ago, I found there are really two huge learning curves to this whole thing:
1. You must know how to structure a novel including characterization, plot arch, yada, yada, yada prior to having a chance at traditional publishing.
2. Once you learn that, you have a lifetime of work ahead of you to actually learn how to write the darn thing!
Now, I've written several 80- 95k word count manuscripts, but only to test what I've learned in step one. I must say, I don't have the itch to move to step two. Not yet anyway. For now, I'm sticking with step one and hopefully I can help some who know less than me, and learn from others who know more.
