Book The Zen of Writing with Imperfection and Confidence

Download or read book The Zen of Writing with Imperfection and Confidence written by Alan O'Hashi and published by Boulder Community Media. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Zen of Writing" Author Alan O’Hashi is walking proof that perfection and organization are highly overrated. His parents and grandparents were all artists and applied a zen approach to nurturing their work, which influenced him as a creative entrepreneur. Rather than rigid plans and goals, they all were very contemplative and relied more on intuition and accepted life how it happened with no judgment. The story is partly a DIY personal growth book about how the author overcame self-doubt and perfection as a “Model Minority." He’s now more confident, no longer obsessed with perfection, and has become a prolific writer. The other part is a memoir about how the importance of owning life experiences and not being afraid to write about those. His writing is now much more emotional and no longer superficial. “All you have to do is write one true sentence. Write the truest sentence that you know.” is what Ernest Hemingway says about the essence of good storytelling. This book is for anyone who is a writer of organized words, whether they are fiction, nonfiction, poetry, work memos, grant applications, academic papers, or love letters. Read this book if you’re a professional writer, a novelist just starting out, or a screenwriter with a half-done script lost deep in the bowels of a computer hard drive. Are you a writer who wonders how to get over self-doubt, kick your obsession with perfection, and for whatever reason, can’t quite finish your writing project? This book provides insight and a few tips through the author’s experiences about becoming more confident in your ability to balance perfection and accuracy that results in a higher likelihood of finishing your work. Author Alan O’Hashi relates how his lessons from life were significant influences that resulted in his first book pitch based on a typed-up piece of paper in June. He signed a contract and finished an 80,000-word manuscript five months later. Alan is a native of Cheyenne, Wyoming, where he began writing as a 12-year-old reporter for his junior high school newspaper, “The Tumbleweed.” He relates his growth as a writer surviving a 1,000-year flood, an emergency landing of an airplane with a fire on board, two job layoffs after 9/11, and getting up from his death bed.

Book True Stories of an Aging Do Gooder

Download or read book True Stories of an Aging Do Gooder written by Alan O'Hashi and published by Boulder Community Media. This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I've lived a life of divergent experiences that converged when I joined the Silver Sage Village (SSV) senior cohousing community in Boulder, Colorado. My story about how to play well with others is a somewhat organized stream of consciousness. This book provides “nuts-and-bolts” methods about ways your community can use cultural competence techniques that encourage members to better understand one another. After arguing about whether pets are allowed in the Common House, what if cohousers organized themselves and decided to collectively undertake a mission to save the world? True Stories explores why I believe cohousing can evolve from a “social movement” into a “social norm.”I’ll offer a paradigm shift about how cohousing can bridge socio-economic divides. The stories are about relations between and among individual people and the personal changes necessary to find commonality with strangers, all with different experiences and lifestyles. In case you’ve just returned after a year in outer space, the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic that began in late 2019 circled the globe. Like everyone else, I’ve had quite a bit of extra time on my hands. I have no idea how my day was occupied before self-isolation.COVID-19 brought to light glaring cultural inequities. The pandemic closed down the economy, and people lost their jobs. That exposed the lack of lower-priced housing options when people lost their homes or were kicked out of their rental apartments. If homeowners default on their loans at the same time, as happened in 2009, the market will be flooded with pricey houses that nobody can afford to purchase, except the bottom-feeders. Racial justice issues quickly floated to the top of the social change pond. African-American and Latino people are at the highest risk of contracting COVID-19, hospitalization, and death than the general population. One nexus of lower-priced housing and racial justice is rental and owner-occupied cohousing that pool resources. Residents share the financial risks and collaboratively operate and maintain their communities. The story is written from my viewpoint as a cohousing community member, as opposed to a cohousing professional or a cohousing professional who lives in a community.SSV is one of 170 existing cohousing communities in the United States. If cohousing is such a great idea, why aren’t thousands of communities popping up in all corners of the country? After all, if there are 30,000 people residing in an existing cohousing community or in the community formation phase. The book is part memoir and part “how-to” manual about my experiences that seemed unrelated at the time but added to my life gestalt, which eventually led me to believe cohousing can make social change happen by bridging cultural divides. The only person I have any control over is myself. For me, personal change happens when keeping the amount of time between the past and the present as small as possible. My experiences aren’t that remarkable, but the intent is to encourage you to remember what happened in your personal history as you figure out the opportunities and challenges you’ll face when choosing to care and share in a cohousing community.
