Contrary to typical childbirth, this sort of thing causes much pain in the beginning and ends in orgasm. —Rick McKinney, on writing
I’ve taken on a variety of specialized roles over the course of my career, but all of them have related to writing in some form or another—enough so that I can claim to have made a living as a professional writer.
While I’ve published hundreds of articles in a variety of trade publications, however, and completed two feature-length screenplays after graduating from film school, fiction writing is one nut I still haven’t really cracked (other than a smattering of published short stories).
But I’m close to finishing my first novel, and though I doubt it will be publishable, maybe the next one will be. So watch this space for updates about future publications.
