The Image and The Reality

Over in a tech journalists group we got into a discussion of how we are perceived versus what we (writers) are actually like. In doing some work with scans today, I found a couple that illustrate the point nicely

Rick Cook's Notebook

Is exactly what the title says: The notes of a sometime writer of science fiction and fantasy and a full-time free-lance writer. It is a collection of comments, essays and such on writing, science fiction, fantasy and related topics. Although, it contains my thoughts on the craft of writing, it is not intended to be didactic. There is some stuff here that can help you as a writer and some things that will get you into trouble.

Choose wisely grasshopper
