Cities of the Mind, a blog focused on stories, why they matter, and where they come from. and living in general. Also I'm an expert.

This is the page for the website for my business, because we live in a strange and occasionally pointless era where websites need freaking fanpages. Look, I write for living, I like writing for a living, and writing in general. . . It's a pretty good setup all 'round most the time. This page is set up as a resource for writers because I have learned a lot from the news media over the years, mainly

Hey, so I haven't put anything up on CitiesoftheMind in forever, but I have started a PodCast on another site that you guys should consider checking out:

1: Life Advice from a 31-Year-Old Broke Single Guy Sleeping in a Hammock in his Parents' Backyard - Somewhere, America A Ringing Endorsement I realize that title doesn’t seem a particularly compelling biography for anyone giving advice, but either I rise above this, and it is inspiring, or I don’t, and this a cautionary tale. Either way, pay attention. I’m not sitting around smoking joints while I mooch off my...

A Video Review/Impression of Gutenberg on Cities of the Mind 09/29/2018

Just a quick look at a test run through Gutenberg, the new writing plugin from WordPress. And my new video software. And my new microphone. There are some errors because I'm incredibly bad a juggling, metaphorically and literally. Anyway, it's not good, just so you know.

Had a great time writing this article and taking these pictures. I'm also pretty excited to see it as the top article for the Arizona Department of Education's new site launch!

Yavapai Co. Schools Rally During Goodwin Fire The Goodwin Fire Fire season in rural Arizona is off to a dangerous start. Among the dozens of fires that have erupted across the state this past month was the Goodwin Fire, near Prescott. The fire moved rapidly through the brush and chaparral, expanding from 4000 acres on Friday to almost 25,000 on...

If a soulless husk on a server can't motivate you, maybe you just aren't the sort of person who can appreciate a really great font choice.

Basic Guide to Internal Antagonists 06/12/2017

The Two Wolves I'm going to jump into the guide to internal antagonists in a moment, but first I want to tell you a very short story. It's a very old story, to which I've seen various origins ascribed, and, given its simplicity, I suspect has risen independently with small variations many times in the history of the world: A young man came to his grandfather one day, distraught, asking for his counsel.

10 Obvious Mistakes to Avoid in Creating Your Antagonist 05/23/2017

Bad Villains Happen Look, just because you're writing someone bad doesn't mean you need to write them badly.

The Antagonist’s Handbook 05/15/2017

Who's Your Most Important Character? So who is your most important character? If you can read titles, you've probably figured out the answer. Of course, the important question is actually why?
