Yes, you read that title right — it’s about roaches and writing. Never thought they had anything in common, did you? Neither did I, until I read the post over at JD’s Writer’s Blog today. Those roaches can infest our dreams as writers, but can also scurry around making us steer clear of other things we want to do in life, too, because we don’t want to get too close to those nasty little creatures.
Check out the analogy at JD Holiday’s blog, and keep reading to the bottom for a glimpse into the writing life of Dr. Robert McGinnis. Dr. McGinnis writes for the young adult market; his latest book is Paradise Is Where You Find It. Isn’t that a lesson a lot of us need to learn even as adults? 🙂
I never thought I’d learn a lesson using roaches. Thought wrong! 🙂
