It's a blog. Cool people have blogs, right? |

Hey readers: As I said in my bio, I really hate writing about myself. Here's the basics: My name's actually Jonny Capps, and yes, that does sound an awful lot like Johnny Cash, and you're the first person to make that association. I write ridiculous stories about things that never happened, I read a lot of stuff by people who write better than I do, I drink coffee, I smoke cigars, and I never shot a guy in Reno... just beat him up real bad and left him in the street. I've been writing most of my life, but I only started doing it professionally a couple years ago. It's not as glorious as I had hoped that it would be, but it's more satisfying than I could have hoped. I have been asked to write more biographical stories about random people than I can even count. Everyone seems to think that their story is an instant Lifetime movie, waiting to happen. I don't know if I blame Harvey Pekar or that woman from Precious for that, but it's ridiculous, especially considering that I'm mostly a genre writer. That means, unless you're an interstellar combatant with a space ship, a laser pistol, and a talking monkey companion, there are probably better candidates for memoir writing. I do intend to write my own biography some day. My story actually is a Hallmark movie, though. Seriously, I've been through some shit; you don't even know. Seriously, though, this blog is probably going to full of bitter, random, old man shit involving writing, the process, and whatever else I feel like writing about. |
