Pypeline Editing The new year is a great me to work on your author goals. The holiday season is over, and while you were running around buying gi s for family and friends, a ending a plethora of holiday par es and construc ng meal masterpieces were you trea ng yourself? No, we don’t mean having an extra slice of pie or sleeping in a li le. We mean, working on you and your author goals! If not, the new year is the perfect me to make your wri ng dreams come true. *Disclaimer: Finding a work/life balance is crucial, so don’t burn yourself out! The author process is just that, a process. No one size fits all authors, but even if the order is flexible, the steps are incredibly helpful. Here are some ideas to focus on when trying to tackle your wri ng dreams: Ideas: Make sure you have an idea for your wri ng. Inten on is everything in the author game. Use brainstorming, freewri ng and many other tools to take the ideas in your head to paper. Wri ng: Here is the meat and potatoes of the whole author process. Write! This process can be difficult, but also rewarding. Make sure you write down all your ideas and do not censor yourself. Edi ng comes later. Edi ng: See, here we are, edi ng! Take the me to go through your book at least 347 mes. OK, we are over exaggera ng, but you will go through it a lot. Edi ng your work is not just for grammar and spelling, but also for the storyline as a whole. Editors: Hire help. A professional editor is your friend. Find a trusted editor, and you can take your wri ng to the next level. Many professionals will not only check for grammar, but offer sugges ons to help and improve the story. Take their
At the start of the new year, remember you and your author goals advice; it could be enlightening, but remember, this is your story! Publishing: Research, research, research. We cannot say that word enough. You need to consider publishers, whether local or far away, who may find an interest in you and your story. They are not just inves ng in you, but you are inves ng in them, so make it a nice fit. Self‐publishing: Publishing is not like it used to be, self‐ publishing is an opportunity for an author to take charge of the en re process. Research (there’s that word again!) your op ons and find what is best for you; there are so many outlets for this. Promo on: A publisher, if you take that route, is not solely responsible for the success of your book. You are responsible, so consider your budget and resources. Social media is your friend, but think about other promo onal mediums as well. Party: Remember to party! Celebrate your success and your friends. You’ve earned it.
For more details about the bullet points above, to get you faced in the right direc on for your wri ng and author journey, pick up your copy of The Ul mate Guide to Becoming an Author. This book goes through everything and even includes resources, ac vi es and humor. Also, the book is half off through February 15th! Get it while it’s hot and remember to save us some eggnog!

Victor Warren Ever since I was a kid and would sneak out of my bedroom late at night to watch old movies while my sisters and parents slept, I have loved the celluloid and digital art of storytelling. That small black‐and‐white TV opened me up to another world I could escape into with my imagina on. The characters and stories I absorbed created the fabric of who I am today—actors and directors such as Charles Loughton, Paul Muni, George Stevens and Frank Capra, to name a few. These ar sts weaved pieces of their humanity and cra into my psyche. It’s humbling and amazing how carefully cra ed celluloid is; such a powerful reflec on of who we are as individuals. I want to give back what they gave to me: enlightenment about the human condi on and emo onal expressions through the medium of film. While I have made most of my living as an actor/writer/producer and theatrical director, I have been making films since I was twelve years old. Several years ago, I created the film produc on company, GLYDASCOPE, so that I could self‐generate. To date, I have completed two shorts and two feature films. I have acted in over seventy roles and directed over fi y projects. These experiences have reinforced that a story is nothing if you are not fully invested in the characters. The characters create the moments that become etched in an audience’s mind and force them to invest their hearts and me. When I communicate with actors, my understanding is

Storytelling and giving back rich with compassion; I know what I am asking them to accomplish. This shorthand communica on enables me to dance between the lines and gain their trust. Actors are usually the commercial face associated with a project; the greater their coverage, the greater the opportuni es for networking and commercial success. While there is an element of luck to breaking into the industry, that luck is something you can create if you con nue to put yourself out into the stream and work to transform the cra of storytelling. The future of storytelling is on the verge of monumental changes. These changes remain to be seen; however, they will surely be governed by social media, perhaps virtual reality, and some kind of community convergence of spirit. This new path has to be unraveled through a blend of art and cra ed technical data. We all want to be a part of a be er tomorrow, feed a passion that is fueled for the good of all. Desperately, we search in our lives for answers. I am an ar st with a passion to create and reflect what it is to be human. If I woke up tomorrow with nothing, I would s ll find a way to tell stories. Film captures moments that make you feel, grow and change. It is the closest thing to immortality. I will succeed because I have never given up my dream of giving back. I was inspired by the images and sounds I saw on that black‐and‐white TV when I was a child; I want to do the same. Like the ar sts who have weaved their way into my psyche, I want to make a difference in people’s lives. VICTOR WARREN, a na ve Californian, has been ac ng since the age of ten.

Richard G. Pugh Every summer since moving to Reno in 1973 I have enjoyed joining my friends in our “Pure‐in‐Heart Bow Hunt Club”. Usually there are a couple of doctors, den sts, a lawyer, and a few other ‘hunters’: our success rate is unblemished. In all those years we have never harmed a deer or other living cri er! And, and yes, deer tags from the Dept. of Wildlife are in hand…….that is when we are lucky in the annual draws. That lack of success has never meant we don’t try …for example we bring plenty of deer bags, have always prac ced our archery skills, sharpened our arrows, and have accumulated numerous recipes for cooking up a mess of deer liver! But, alas, we have never had the excitement and enjoyment of such a dish. However, we all have valued very good company, the shop‐worn stories, and outrageous jokes! One of our greatest hunters of long standing is encouraged to recite the epic poem “The Crema on of Sam McGee” by Robert Service, a cherished camp tradi on. His recita on is not always flawless a er a few drinks of a delicious beverage I’ll men on later. We have enjoyed hiking in some beau ful country and have seen deer…frequently lots of ‘em… but those have always been the female variety….harming one of those beau es has always been ’verboten’ during all 43 years of “bucks only’ hiking/hun ng. In early September, the aspens are beginning to change colors and the evenings are ge ng to be right nippy. Later the coyotes sing their mournful chorus

The nippiness is rarely felt around a blazing campfire and the enjoyment of several drinks of “Who Shot John?” the delicious beverage men oned earlier. A er forty three years of venturing out in the wilds of the Silver State, a toll is being taken on our inveterate hunters. The long hikes are ge ng shorter, and the complaints of sore hips, knees, and shoulders are becoming more frequent. Ge ng up at the ‘crack of eight’ in the morning is, sadly, becoming the norm. However, our hiking with hopes of scaring up a deer is s ll far be er than si ng up in a tree stand and wai ng for hours and hours for unsuspec ng bucks to pass underneath only to feel the steel of our razor point arrows.

Jacci Terri Turner I work with people that are dying. Nothing clarifies a person's priori es like knowing they are going to die. One thing becomes crystal clear. When you know you're dying, it's the rela onships you will miss. As someone wise once said, “No one says on their deathbed, I wish I'd spent more me at work.” Consider these three stories: I'm working with a young man who is dying from lung disease. When I asked him if he had any “spiritual background,” he said, “I sort of just believe in the Universe.” I asked how he felt about the Universe. He said, “The Universe has been giving me s**t for years.” I asked if the Universe had given him anything good. He pointed to his fiance and said, “It gave me her.” She was the only joy in his otherwise miserable life, the one bright spot. I worked with a man who had spent the last decades of his life as a homeless alcoholic. Because of his choices, he had been alienated from his many children and siblings. Then he told me about his cat, Jewel, and he wept bi erly, missing her. His only comfort was that Jewel would be wai ng for him on the “other side.” Today I sat with a woman who is deaf but can s ll see. She s ll has a strong mind, on good days. I was paging through her photo albums with her, impressed

Make new friends, but keep the old that she had traveled the world as a nurse. Her son even told me that she had smuggled Bibles into Russia. But the only photos she commented on, and did so consistently, were of her son. “My son,” she would say with pride. Nothing else ma ered to her but him. So, if rela onships are so important to us when we are dying, we'd be er start building them now. You might be wondering, who will I miss when I'm gone? Who will miss me? If you're looking around, thinking, “Wow, my friendship pool is pre y small,” it might be me to build some rela onships. Friendships are mysterious. Some last forever, like perennial flowers. Some, like annuals, are only for a season. Here are some ideas on forming new friendships:
1. Facebook is a wonderful place to find and reconnect with old friends, long lost cousins, or past loves. Old friends are cool because of your shared history. I've a ended class reunions I would have skipped because I've reconnected with so many old friends. 2. Join a small group on something that interests you: a Bible Study, a gardening group, a stamp collec ng club. I've found that, in these kinds of groups, it generally takes me to get to know others. Don't give up. It helps to become a leader in the group and bond with others in leadership. Once, when I had moved to a new city, I joined an exercise class that also did cra s. I had first thought I had NOTHING in common with the women in the group, but eventually, I learned we had many things in common and we became good friends. 3. Get on “Meet ups” and find an ac ve group to join: hiking, so ball, wri ng, pain ng. Don't be afraid to try something new, you may discover a hidden or forgo en talent. My daughter once gave me a membership to a writer's group for my birthday. Seven years and nine published books later, I'm s ll a ending. Con nued on page 8

4. Take a class. Especially a class that involves par cipa on, like wine‐tas ng, travel, improvisa on, or dancing. Having to work together builds friendships. 5. Join a group that serves others. This takes care of any self‐pity issues and bonds you together with like‐minded people. Try Habitat for Humanity and build a house for a needy family. 6. Take your exis ng friendships deeper. A group of friends and I started a “Game Night” group 28 years ago. We meet monthly and each couple hosts the group once per year. These are the folks I would call if I needed anything. We may not hang out much outside of Game Night, but if there is ever an emergency, we're all there in a heartbeat. 7. Adopt a pet. My step‐dad came home with a dog the SPCA had brought to a baseball game to give‐away. That li le fellow has become his constant companion, filling a big void since my mother died. 8. Start small. If these ideas seem overwhelming, just invite a friend to lunch. Unfortunately, no one can make friends for you. It can be in mida ng to reach out, but it
is worth the risk. And above all, cherish your parents while they are s ll alive. Today I sat with a pa ent who was deeply asleep. There was nothing I could do to wake her no ma er what I tried. Then her daughter walked into the room, and before her daughter even reached the bed, she became fully awake. Love them while you can. They won't be here forever. How have you made friendships that last? Share any ideas you have for developing friendships.
