Me...blog?!
I know. I know. I said I'd never blog. Everybody and their dog has a blog, so what in the world could I possibly have to say that anyone would be interested in reading? Is it seriously crucial information to know that I ate frozen pizza for din din last night or that my dachsund threw up on the rug?
That being said, here I am. Which begs the question...what's the point of Writer Off The Leash?
I'm embarking on a journey and this is my travel journel. Here I will share my thoughts, experiences, and gut reactions from start to finish of a novel.
If you're a wannabe author interested in the process, or merely a curious onlooker that loves gawking at train wrecks, this is the place for you. Hang on to your hats. Here we go.

Sentence of the Day:
Established a blog site. Obviously you've found it. Can't figure out how to customize the stupid background. Note to self: corner a teenager today and have them change it for me.
Today my plan is to come up with some kind of story line. A synopsis, so to speak. My research assets to date are Viking era, medieval, and Regency. I figure I'll stick with one of those so this go-around I don't have to recreate the wheel. Since medievals and Vikings are tough-if-not-impossible to sell, I'll pick door number two: Regency.
Interests: Bow Street Runners, tunnels beneath London, indentured servants, Bethlem Royal Hospital (Bedlam), Newgate/Bridewell, Tiburn jails
Being that I've just used up an hour of my time figuring how to get this far on the blog, that's enough for today.
