10 Ways to be Successful: Hacking It
I thought I would throw out some of my thoughts today about how you become good at something, and how you become successful with it, because I’m not sure everyone out there understands this. I often get a lot of email from people wanting to become good at magick, or writing, or some other skill, but they don’t know how…

Attention Authors: You’re Killing Me, Smalls… #authorlife #promobasics
I do a lot of work with other authors. After all, collaboration, paying it forward, sharing information and all that – it’s a wonderful thing. Writers are my tribe, and I get excited every time an author friend hits the bestseller list, and I cheer on each new book release as if it were my own. I love you guys.…

Writing Conferences: 10 Questions You Could Be Asked
I actually wrote this for a newsletter for a professional writer’s association I belong to. It seems some of my article was butchered out (accidentally) so I thought I would post the whole thing here in hopes it helps someone prepare for their first writer’s conference.

The Introvert Writer at Conferences & Conventions
I am an introvert. I have discussed my introversion previously in this post. Today I read a blog post by fellow introvert writer Ashley Hodges that gives tips to fellow introverts who want to attend writers’ conferences. I kind of have a unique take on conferences and conventions. I did quite a few of them back in the mid 2000’s. There’s a…

#edcmooc The Trouble With MOOCs
I was very disappointed yesterday when I learned one of the MOOCs I’m taking was cancelled due to student comprehension problems and, let’s be frank, the technologically impaired. Yes, I am simply saying how I feel. I can do that here. I have never seen so many people unable to use a simple spreadsheet. I have never run across so…

#EDCMOOC Film Discussion: My Thoughts
Film 1: Bendito Machine III What is this film suggesting are the ecological and social implications of an obsession or fixation on technology? Do the film’s characters have any choice in relation to their technologies? What are the characteristics of various technologies as portrayed in this film? The film’s characters here seem mesmerized by the technology, as if they don’t…

#EDCMOOC Idiocracy: A Dystopian Technology Story
It seems there are quite a few films that are actually dystopian stories about technology gone awry. I was initially torn between discussing Terminator where we make the machines so smart, they take over, or Idiocracy, where the machines do everything, people become dependent on them, and as a result the people become stupid. I think I’ll choose Idiocracy. Idiocracy is, by…

#edcmooc Can Online Learning Be Overwhelming?
I think this is a very real concern. In all the pre-course prep I’ve watched fellow learners build everything from Wiki’s, Twitter accounts, YouTube accounts and blogs, to Google Plus groups, Facebook groups, and everything else. What I found even more interesting is that I already had accounts in place to take advantage of all of these things. It made…
