Welcome to my writing blog. My name is Johnny Ray and as the writer of many novels, short stories, poems, blogs, screenplays, speeches, commentaries on breaking news, etc. I hope this blog will help to show the frustrations and joys of the work behind the scenes, and hopefully attract many people that will become friends, and maybe even fans of my work. Like all of life, it will be an adventure none the less. Thanks for joining me on the ride, and being a part of my life.

WHERE DO WRITERS FIND INSPIRATION
COFFEE SHOPS
NOTHING IS BETTER THAN
THESE ISLANDS OF PARADISE
A PLACE WHERE CASUAL CONVERSATIONS TAKE PLACE
AND QUITE MOMENTS
TURN INTO HOURS
AND HOURS INTO MORNINGS
AND WITH LUCK
NEW LITERARY WORKS
ARE GIVEN LIFE

The difference between what you write and how you write.
When you pick any subject,

the chances of writing
exactly like you
is very slim
therefore, remember this
Writing should always be about your perception
and personal style
More tips on writing
While most writers understand this
it is good to
refocus on the basic principals
from time to time
tips on becoming a best selling author by Johnny Ray
I know all writers want to become best selling authors.

You get your butt in the chair
and write
you start early
and
work late

a look at Johnny Ray's world of novel writing
While this is not the normal tiki hut where I drink coffee, it is an interesting place to relax and write, especially when it is raining outside like today.
Many writers I know have a set routine regarding their writing, I have anything but such.
I hope you love this photo taken of me at Sweet Sage this morning and a view of what I am seeing while I write.
