Hi Today’s newsletter is short because my writing day got superceded by an emergency room visit with a loved one. Sometimes life happens and you can’t make your commitments or goals. That’s okay. It is important to give ourselves grace when events out of our control impact our creative life. Next time you don’t meet a deadline because of an emergency, take a breath, set the next goal and keep going. Don’t let the unexpected derail you. Computers for WritersI got a new computer – a Surface! I work outside the office three times a week and travel with my computer so the most important thing for me is weight followed by battery life.

Now it’s time to take the next big step in estate planning for writers: organizing your creative assets. Think of this like a treasure chest. You’ve been adding jewels—books, scripts, blog posts, contracts, domains—for years. But if no one knows where the chest is buried, or how to open it, your heirs will never see the riches inside. Let’s fix that. Inventory Everything (Yes,...
Hi Reader, The next few weeks we’re diving into a subject that makes many writers squirm but absolutely needs our attention: what happens to your creative work after you die. I know—morbid. But stay with me. Because this isn’t just about mortality, it’s about legacy. Your words, your stories, your ideas, they can keep earning money and inspiring people long after you’re gone. But only if you put a plan in place. Think about it: Will your heirs receive royalties? Can they manage your books,...
Hi Reader, When we think of something going viral, our brains usually jump to TikTok: a flashy video that dominates everyone’s feed for about twelve seconds, then vanishes into the digital abyss. Poof! Forgotten. But here’s the delicious twist—sometimes old content gets a surprise second act. A book, a song, a blog post suddenly pops back into the spotlight years (or even decades) later.
