      Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
      Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
      What’s in a name? that which we call a rose
      By any other name would smell as sweet;
      So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call’d,
      Retain that dear perfection which he owes
      Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
      And for that name which is no part of thee
      Take all myself.”

I’ve been stuck in a writing slump recently, not only not producing any words, but not even able to settle on a new project. Continue Reading »

Or: What’s your frame of reference?

This question was recently posed to me and, quite honestly, caught me flat-footed and with no response.

Note to self — Prepare snappy reply for next time this question comes up.
