Writing and Mental Health | Authortube | Mental Health Running2Write 2022-01-04 | Writing and Mental Health | Authortube I'm starting the new year with a conversation about mental health.

Learning From The Worst: Critiques On Bad Writing Running2Write 2024-07-30 | After multiple weeks of praising my favorite instances of modern storytelling, I am switching to the worst examples. These stories were so mind-numbingly bad that they tore down the good will and legacy built up by their predecessors.
