The Official David Hammock Blog

A Collage of guess who?

This blog is an expression of the freedom to just "let go" in my spirit. The music captures and defines things I'm sure about and...some things I'm not so sure about it. It expresses emotions that I'm not quite able to put into words other than, "yeah..get it on bro." The purpose is simply mean to reach out and provoke you into a sense of greater authenticity.

It also has an international flavor for my followers who like to sample cuisines other than American. There's a variety of photographs of friends, my own pics...things that are important to me..my country and its foundations and monuments across this great land that cause me to be greatful. You'll read pieces about love, pain, loneliness and some of the things in life we need to think more about.

Try our specialties. They come with dessert.

I’m Writing Again

Its' been far too long since I've written. Somehow there seems to be nothing more to say about my writing. What can not be neglected is the fact that four books and two audio books have already been completed and published. I am trying to convince myself that I AM a writer and nothing or no one can alter the footprints of a writer except the writer.

Is this nothing more than a writer's thing, which every writer experiences at least once during their life-span? I can't allow myself to ignore my own motivation. I have to examine being willing to do what I'm called to be. Nothing can be allowed in my life to deter me from my God-given path of fulfillment that awaits me. What is my desire in the midst of this unexpected sabbatical?

When darkness crowded my soul, I could feel writing slowly and deeply fading away from me as though words would come and slowly disintegrate before my eyes. I was struggling to keep hope alive but, I could not with my own human strength. It was though a part of my soul was dying. I struggle now as I begin again.

Disappointment and discouragement are enemies we all battle with in careers, relationships and other walks of life. I did not expect something I loved so much to be destined to fall by the wayside. Yes…it seemed that words, paragraphs, chapters and more were fading…fading….fading…..up until now.

There have been no miraculous events to re-ignite my writing. I’m simply starting over. I have
spent a great deal of time writing about romance and relationships. Now….let’s see where the wind will take us. I’m going to continue to write about the things I know the most about from life experiences and the things I have learned about as a student of truth.
