Thank you for your inquiry. What is literary art? I find that the definition to this question is different for each individual as is what a painting is to each individual. But, when it comes to my writings I try to include my own personal experiences. After all what is fiction but real events, characters and their story fictionalized by the changing of the names, dates and characters. Honestly, however one can't but get carried away when describing some events. Thank you for your interest. My apologies for the late reply. I have been busy completing three more novels. Finally, I am able to take a three month vacation. Don McInnis
Tough question to anwer. When I finish I always want to say more. But when I read the book at a later time and understand where I was going all along. I therefore never sit in judgment on what I've written. I leave it to my readers and reviers. Thank you for your inquirey. This reply is late since I have been consumed by finishing three more books in the series. I am not on a three month vaction. Don McInnis
My work schedule is constant, day in and day out with many night interruptions to write more. The mind never stops. My apologies for the late reply. I have been busy with three more books. Don McInnis
Can't sell a book if a potential reader is drawn to the book sufficiently for them to pick it up. My apologies for the late reply. I have been busy researching and writing three more books. Don McInnis
No writers block. I just stop and go about my daily rutine. That's when I find out where I go next. The mind never stops. You just need to give it time to reflect. Also, get critical feed back from other writers, editors and developmental editors. They see your strengths and weakness and once you understand what they are saying the answers come to you. My apologies for the late reply. I have been consumed with three more books. Don McInnis
I read reviews all the time. First critical review hurt. But after reflection I appreciated it. I now seek as much criticism as possible. It will make you a better writer. My apologies for the ate reply. I have been buried writing three more books. Don McInnis
As a man I find how to describe their dress, actions and motivations. Men think, react and think differently than women. But, inside we are all the same. Let your emotion flood to the surface through you writings and the reader will take from your words those emotions that apply to them. Don McInnis
My true life experiences in law and dealing with human behavior. Write only about what you know. Learn that which you need for your story and include it. Don McInnis
Take abreak when you are emotionally moved by an event or character you are writing about. Then come back and look at it as a reader would see it. Proceed from there.
I was at first embarrassed. Then I realize my embarrassedment was due to my not knowing what to say. That all goes away when you ask them questions about what they read and how the writing affected them. Then you know really why the reader has stopped you and then you know how to reply.
