Tales from the Blue Wendigo

I’m a product manager for a software company in Salt Lake City. I have four kids, a demanding job and various hobbies, i’m trying to fit writing into this life.

For the longest time i’ve had the “bug” to write. Fiction mostly, and i grew up on a steady diet of Science Fiction and Fantasy. I read for adventure and escape, so i tend to write for the same reasons.

From time to time, I would suppress this urge to write, but it always came back. So this is my journey into fictional writing. This is my attempt to write regularly, to force myself to be creative.

I don’t claim to be good, i hope i get better. But i’m willing to put myself  “out there”! I will share my writing with you, please be constructive in your criticism.

What I won’t share is my final answer to life. I had to climb a giant mountain in China and talk to a mystical hermit who lived at the top to get that secret, if you want it, you can go get it yourself.

This blog will help me write everyday (as much as possible) and i’ll explore advice from experts on writing tips and secrets (no mountains to climb for this).

Why Blue Wendigo? Wendigo is a creature from Native American Mythology. I like Mythology. Blue? Well, it’s just a color.

This is my attempt to do something creative, stop watching TV (it’s such a waste) and feed the “bug” to write instead of suppressing it.

Thanks
