Dawn's Doorway.. Step Inside the Mind of a Writer: May 2013

View my complete profile. Friday, May 24, 2013. Keep those muscles flexed.those WRITING muscles that is ;). They say cliches exist for a reason - because they're TRUE. That old saying of writing every day is no exception. I find that if I don't work those creative muscles, they atrophy. Like any other muscle in the body, if we 'let it go,' we forget how to use it. Even if you can't muster up ideas for your current project, engage in a different writing exercise. They're no exception, and I've read that e...

View my complete profile. Saturday, June 22, 2013. Why Are Criminal Defendants like Jodi Arias Allowed to Trash Their Victims Without Evidence? Trends Point to Victim Bashing. In murder trials, it seems to be an up and coming trend to 'blame the victim.' For instance, look at the infamous Jodi Arias case, where she has eclipsed Casey Anthony as the most-hated woman in America. Who ever thought that. What was the draw in this twisted case? A combination of what some. Let's not forget the physical abuse al...

Dawn's Doorway.. Step Inside the Mind of a Writer: Manson: Monster or Myth?
http://dawn-dix.blogspot.com/2013/06/manson-monster-or-myth.html
View my complete profile. Tuesday, June 4, 2013. Manson: Monster or Myth? I may catch a lot of flak for this, but what's life without a little controversy? Was Charles Manson really such a mastermind cult leader? Or was it just easier to give into the 'hype' at the time and slap that label on him? I've just finished reading "Manson: In His Own Words" (co-written by Nuel. Emmons) and found myself fascinated. It was hard to put down, because I felt as though he was talking to me. I called Corcoran prison, ...

View my complete profile. Sunday, July 29, 2012. Let's Play "Analyst Armchair". Are we fascinated with serial killers? I know I am.I write about them. Granted, mine are fictional, but still. They've been around since the 1800's, starting with Jack the Ripper. In truth, they were probably around even earlier than that, but it wasn't widely known or reported to the public. They kill with wanton abandon.without consequence.without mercy. Perhaps we envy their ability to have no conscience? Ted Bundy was cun...

http://dawn-dix.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
View my complete profile. Tuesday, October 23, 2012. I've had the pleasure of getting to know Diane Dimond, acclaimed journalist and author, recently. We enjoy spirited games of "Words with Friends" on Facebook. She was kind and generous enough to agree to an interview. Thank you, Diane! I remember first seeing you on Court TV and wonder how you got your start. Did you always want to be a journalist? Stayed there about six years and then figured if I was ever going to try TV I better snap to it. I was 27...

View my complete profile. You may be asking yourself.who the heck is this chick, and why should I follow her? Well, I plan to be famous someday! I'm a writer at heart.always have. Been, always will.

View my complete profile. Monday, April 30, 2012. No Hassle at the "Castle". I hope most people are familiar with the smash TV show, "Castle." If you're not, you should be. I've watched it since the first episode, and it has the perfect mixture of simpatico characters, humor, and crime mystery. Since Richard Castle is the next favorite author on the list I posted in a previous blog, I'd like to recommend his books. The ingenious. As I said earlier, it's pure genius! Therefore, my next recommendation to y...

Dawn's Doorway.. Step Inside the Mind of a Writer: How is YOUR writing?
http://dawn-dix.blogspot.com/2013/05/how-is-your-writing.html
View my complete profile. Sunday, May 12, 2013. How is YOUR writing? Show of hands.how many of you out there have noticed a decline in the quality of your handwriting? I swear, since I started typing a lot more on my computer, I've watched my formerly neat handwriting morph into something you'd see on a doctor's prescription pad. Have we become THAT technologically advanced that actual writing is falling by the wayside? I wonder if there are any writers out there that actually WRITE? Posted by Dawn Dix.
