The idle musings of a former military man, former computer geek, medically retired pastor and now full-time writer. Contents guaranteed to offend the politically correct and anal-retentive from time to time.

I wrote an article on that subject today over at Mad Genius Club, the shared writers’ blog to which I contribute. Click over there to read it, if the subject interests you. I think it’s a contrast that many people – not just writers – might consider.

It's worth noting that the full title of the talk is something like "don't follow your passion, follow your skills"
