“Questionable Minds,” a New Book: Conversations with Writers about Writing

February 15, 2017 EPR Network Leave a comment

OTTAWA, Ontario CANADA, 2017-Feb-15 — /REAL TIME PRESS RELEASE/ — The mind of a writer is a mysterious place. In Questionable Minds: conversations with writers, social psychologist dr george pollard gives a guided tour of the creative mental landscape of writers. In this unique collection of conversations, dr pollard explores the making of a fictional story or a stand-up comedy routine.

If you’re curious how your favourite novel or stand-up comedy routine comes into being, Questionable Minds helps you find out. This new book helps answer many questions. Where do the ideas come from? How do authors develop their characters? What is the secret of writing a successful stand-up comedy routine?

In this eclectic view of the workings of the imagination; dr pollard has assembled a remarkable panel of writers, covering a wide of range of literature. The conversations, in this collection, are with writers of thrillers, satire and westerns, as well as stand-up comedy.

Alessandra Torre tells gripping tales she claims are erotica. Peter Mehlman, a pillar of Seinfeld, has an idiosyncratically ironic eye and smooth, easy writing style. Chris Allen trades in thrillers that may contain more than a hint of truth.

Bruce Holbert is the thriftiest of writers, building finely honed sentences. Victoria Patterson artfully skewers the upper class, of Orange County, California. Steve Berry creates intricate mysteries against a backdrop of notional history. J Scott Fuqua tells tales with words and illustrations that resurrect a bygone era.

Ann Lewis Hamilton writes serious stories in a shrewdly droll style. Gabe Abelson is the A-list writer of late-night television talk show monologues. Jay Bonansinga writes The Walking Dead novels.

What inspires these writers? How do they develop stories or comedy? Why must they write?

To a one, they agree writing is sweating blood that shows up as squiggles on a page or pixels on an e-reader. Writing fiction or stand-up comedy is not for the easily distracted, the indolent or faint of heart. Writers must be eager to chase their characters and stories down the rabbit hole.

Questionable Minds is notable because of the depth and clarity of the insights found in the conversations. The book exhibits a unique intimacy; there’s no sense of canned answers to a list of prepared questions. Instead these conversations move effortlessly, following lines of curiosity and interest, while drawing out a wealth of detail.

Every writer dr pollard talks with has a different story to tell. Each has his or her own sources of inspiration. Their routines are personal; sometimes fitting writing around the rest of their lives or, for a few, squeezing in time for family, if they can drag themselves away from writing.

It is notable how willingly, candid and freely the writers talk. They discuss in detail the motivations that drive them to write. For some it’s enthusiasm; others want to explore their own lives and, perhaps, reframe them in a different context; still others want to discover what happens to their characters, as the story unfolds and still others simply enjoy the act of writing. Questionable Minds is an inside view of some highly distinctive minds, which are absorbing places to explore.

Although dr pollard explores similar themes with each writer, the conversations never become repetitive. Each writer is too distinctive a personality; each brings something fresh to the conversations and our understanding of why writers write. If you wonder how writers do what they do, this book will show you that it’s much more complicated and enthralling than you may imagine; it will improve your reading experience, too.

Questionable Minds is available through Amazon, in paperback and eBook editions at https://www.amazon.com/Questionable-Minds-Conversations-george-pollard. Review copies, in MOBI format, are available from the author at drgeorgep@questionableminds.com. For more information on Questionable Minds, visit the web site http://questionableminds.com or e-mail, as you wish, perhaps to arrange an interview with dr pollard.

Three Long Island Authors will talk about their influences in writing their books.

Hempstead, NY, USA (September 8, 2014) — Three members of LIAWS (Long Island Authors and Writers Society) will take to the stage at Hoftsra University’s Guthart Cultural Center Theater and deliver their story about what led them to write their respective books. It takes place on Wednesday September 17, 2014, 7:00 PM and is part of the organization’s ongoing workshops on the craft of writing that take place throughout Long Island. There will be a question and answer session following the presentation.

Authors Mary Beth Czubay, Yvonne Capitelli , and Tom Gahan are the presenters for Long Island Authors and Writers Society’s inaugural Story Behind the Story presentation.

Mary Beth Czubay shares the story of what inspired her to write her book, Easy Out On Third-Raising A Child With Special Needs. She will take the audience on an uplifting and inspirational journey of what it is like to try to live an ordinary life while facing extraordinary circumstances on a daily basis and overcoming obstacles.

Yvonne Capitelli envisioned writing children’s books while growing up on Long Island, NY. She achieved her dream, wrote Daria Rose and the Day She Chose, and became a ten-time award winning children’s author. She was inspired by her daughter to start writing positive character building books that motivate children to make good choices, be determined, and take control of their own happiness. Capitelli is also a children’s motivational speaker.

Notable eastern Long Island resident Tom Gahan is the author of Harmony Bay, a well-received novel that became required reading at several high-schools. His premiere novel earned him a place on an international list of authors — “Writers You Should Get to Know.” He has worked as a journalist and freelance writer. Gahan will talk about the many influences and characters from around Long Island that inspired him to write Harmony Bay.

The group is committed to supporting the creative talents of local writers and authors, while offering resources on the business end of publishing. “Writing and publishing are very turbulent industries, especially in the age of self-publishing, the rise in the popularity of e-readers and the subsequent troubled finances of the nation’s booksellers and traditional publishers, both large and small,” says Mr. Gahan. “It’s critical for us as a community of professionals to come together to shape the future of the industry and maintain its integrity.”

Long Island is home to countless writers and authors and yet no single organization exists to provide all levels of the craft with resources to further their goals, according to Mr. Gahan. LIAWS will provide professionals and amateurs the opportunity to network, collaborate, or simply to navigate the ins and outs of a complex industry. Membership is open to all published and unpublished writers and authors on Long Island from all genres. “Whether you’re a budding writer seeking your next step or an established author looking for like-minded professionals, LIAWS promises to be a good fit,” adds Mr. Gahan.

In addition to organizing writing workshops and networking events, LIAWS is also committed to community and will work with schools and youth organizations to promote literacy skills, adds Yvonne Capitelli, an award winning children’s book author and vice president of LIAWS. “Our goal is to become vocal and powerful advocates for our community of writers and authors for the long haul,” says Ms. Capitelli.

Writers SuperCenter Wires Writers Right with Creative Writing Software by ThoughtOffice

October 26, 2012 straightlinepr Leave a comment

Online megastore Writers SuperCenter, the one-stop resource for creative writers, forms strategic partnership with ThoughtOffice Creative & Comedy Writing Software. Selected ThoughtOffice titles will now be offered in bundles or a la carte at Writers SuperCenter’s web site.

Norfolk, VA, October 24, 2012 (Straight Line PR) — ThoughtOffice Corporation, the makers of the eponymous creativity and brainstorming software, ThoughtOffice, has announced a partnership with Writers SuperCenter. The joint venture was developed to provide creative writing software to customers of Writers SuperCenter, and to help provide additional input and direction to ThoughtOffice’s next generation offering. This new partnership adds to the already impressive lineup of software for writers offered by Writers SuperCenter.

“We’re very happy to announce this new partnership with Writers SuperCenter,” said David Lockman, product specialist for ThoughtOffice Corporation. “These guys have been providing writing software to creative professionals since just about the beginning of time, and when they approached us to add ThoughtOffice to their catalog, we were delighted. They’re an impressive bunch of folks to be working with.”

ThoughtOffice, the successor program to the legendary IdeaFisher brainstorming software ( http://www.ideafisher.com ), was originally developed to assist communications professionals, by allowing them to expand their thought processes both laterally and in depth. Similarly, Writers SuperCenter was founded specifically to support writers world-wide with the best software available, from a host of vendors.

Irwin Berent of Writers SuperCenter originally contacted ThoughtOffice with the idea of carrying ThoughtOffice’s creative writing software on his site ( http://www.writersupercenter.com/muse ). The software company eagerly jumped at the chance to work with such a well-regarded online retailer as Writers SuperCenter. It’s turned out to be a great match. Writers SuperCenter is known to writers the world around, and ThoughtOffice software is increasingly becoming the “secret weapon” of choice for writers who really want to expand their creativity.

We’re looking forward to the coming year, and are expecting this collaboration to be very good for both companies, and for our customers!”

Writers SuperCenter now offers several ThoughtOffice products designed to specifically meet the needs of writers and professional communicators. Novelists will find ThoughtOffice Muse, the creative writing package that’s also geared towards corporate executives and speakers, and ThoughtOffice PR Pro ( http://www.writersupercenter.com/prpro/ ), which is designed for public relations professionals in any industry. Customers can order the software for immediate download (or via snail mail on CD) through Writers SuperCenter, with the assurance that comes with ordering from an established online retailer, coupled with the excellent customer support offered by ThoughtOffice Corporation. The software includes online training videos, support and training documents, and a one-year upgrade/sidegrade guarantee. Writers SuperCenter is also bundling ThoughtOffice creativity software in special Combination Deals, which can be found online at http://www.writersupercenter.com/order.htm

“Irwin’s phenomenal to work with,” ThoughtOffice CEO Mark Alan Effinger noted. “He’s an early adopter – a believer – in the power of software to partner with ‘wetware’: the writer’s brain. He’s brought us truly talented customers. And he’s given us interesting product ideas that we’re planning to explore.” Effinger added cryptically, “More on that later!”

Come party with us and we’ll help you define, realize,enjoy life, and for a lucky few guests, get some of those “Somedays” done. Our parties are hosted by Connect & Eatz Magazine! Go check it out on Facebook!

We give you intimate entertainment in smaller groups at your favorite local restaurants and venues. From music, to featured artists, and sometimes even comedy: we bring you the party you’ve been waiting for! A food enthusiast dream: a night to expand your palate and help shape the restaurant menu. Our guests have the opportunity to try new items and decide which ones your local restaurants should feature.
