Thoughts from Nebraska Writers Guild Fall Conference 2016.

October 17, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

Nebraska Writers Guild

It’s been a great, inspirational, and educational couple of months for me, with the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers Colorado Gold conference in September and the Nebraska Writers Guild Fall Conference this month. This was my fourth NWG conference, and I found it to be the most valuable one so far. The sessions this time followed […]

Defeating Procrastination

October 3, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

I seem to procrastinate in every aspect of my life. That needs to change NOW. Here is my plan...

I won’t lie. I procrastinate. But I think it’s more than that. I could earn an Olympic medal in procrastination. I’m like the greatest procrastinator in the world. It’s definitely not something I brag about; in fact it’s the only thing I truly hate about myself. Maybe “hate” is too strong of a word, but […]

September Progress Report and October Goals (2016)

October 1, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

Well, September is over. As far as writing goes, it was a pretty good month. The biggest highlight was attending the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers Colorado Gold conference, which I wrote a bit about here. Just like two years ago, it was an incredible experience. I met some cool people and came back completely on […]

Back from Denver

September 12, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

Just got back from the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers 2016 Colorado Gold Conference.

I came home from Colorado two years ago and had no reservations telling the world that my life had changed forever. It was the first time I attended the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers Colorado Gold Conference and I was blown away. And I don’t mean by that merciless Colorado wind, either. I had never attended […]

August Progress Report and September Goals (2016)

August 31, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

My writing goals for the month

Last month I decided to do a post sharing my writing accomplishments for the last thirty days as well as listing my goals for the coming month. As August comes to a close, I decided to do it again. I think it’s a good practice to occasionally review your progress toward your end goal, and […]

July Progress Report and August Goals (2016)

July 31, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

Looking at my "writing report card" for July 2016

Back when I was blogging daily at my author site, I ended every month with a post looking at my writing accomplishment for the month and a look at my goals for the next. While recording an upcoming podcast on getting discouraged, I realized that putting my monthly “report card” out there was actually quite […]

A Quick Write-up On “An Evening With Stephen King”

July 11, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

So I don’t consider myself the type of person who gets all gaga for celebrities, but every rule has an exception. And that exception was recently brought to life when The Bookworm in Omaha (a.k.a. The Awesomest Independent Bookstore in the World) hosted An Evening With Stephen King. Do you remember the first book you […]

Planning the next few months. And questioning my sanity…

February 4, 2016 By: Jason Bougger

Looking at the busy stuff going on in real life while trying to work my fiction in on the side.

I started off this year saying, “I do not want to find myself asking where the hell 2016 went.” And I stand by that. I swear, as you age, years fly by before you can even blink an eye. I set up some fairly ambitious goals for the year and promised to reach them no […]
