Inspiration - by KT Chen

The interesting thing about being a writer is that I’m influenced by all sorts of things, and, eventually, some of it will leak out in my writing – whether I mean for it to do that or not.
 
This past week has been really horrible … mail bombs, two black men shot in a grocery store, a mass shooting at a Jewish synagogue … apparently all at the hands of extremist, far-right white men.  That’s terrorism, by the way.

Not that terrorism is new on American soil, I mean, the KKK have been running amok for more than a hundred years now.  Maybe I deceived myself because they were not on prominent display.  Well, they and their ilk are definitely on prominent display now.
 
I am sad and I’m angry.  I adhere to the philosophy that in a world where you can be anything: be kind.  These terrorist acts fly in the face of that philosophy.  And I don't know how to reconcile it.
 
However, I’m also writing a book about how Death exacts retribution.  I’m sure some of this will come out in that.
 
Go forth and write!

    I write about writing, working out, my dog, being deaf, and anything else I find of interest.

    I post on Mondays, before 9 AM.
