Sources of Inspiration: Company

by

There’s nothing quite like company that encourages me, sees something special in my writing. Sometimes an appreciative reader spots something I’m completely unaware of, or helps me develop ideas by their own response to a character. Sometimes my companions give me space, time to write, gifts I cannot appreciate enough.

Why Jeff Baker, Boogieman In Lavender, Is Writing Two Novellas At Once. (May 12, 2026)

by

Why I’m Writing Two Novellas At Once by Jeff Baker I am a terrible procrastinator. (Okay, okay. Actually I’m a very good procrastinator.) I’m a great putter-offer, especially about writing. So, when I tried to start writing regularly years and years ago I told myself that I would only work on one story at a time. That had been my problem for many years; plenty of false starts, including some very good beginnings, but very few were finished. In that, I probably was like a lot of wannabe writers who have a trunk-full (or file-full) of half-finished stories, (if even … Read more
