A dull interlude into the synapses of a canadian country boy living in the "city" and trying to figure out the future of our nation....like sex and the city (my wife made me watch it), but without the sex, women, money, prestige, fashion, and famous people..(mostly just the city)

...and so it goes...
Well i quit one crappy job and now work another..for more bread at least, that extra few dollars can ease a lot of mental anguish. I'm still not really where i want to be, or even sure where that is yet, but at 33 i better get busy figuring it out. It really is a commonplace thing there are so many of us "lost" in this generation, we don't have any real dreams or aspirations. Myself i didn't find the school system did a whole lot to funnel people anywhere other than university "go to university and you'll get a job" LIES! There are so many out there with degrees working crappy jobs it's unbeliveable, which in turn makes it even worse for the guys with just high school, because of course education always prevails. so maybe the problem is more the economy......

The writing process
I've been writing three different books for about three years, and i'm at a point now that i feel they all stink. My characters are one-dimensional, and my plotlines are contrived and pretty much lame, the only thing i can say i'm sure of is that they need work so i'm going to start working at the craft of writing instead of my usual ranting and raving.
