Word Grit – The Workbench
I am writing a book, and you can follow along. Word Grit is the working title, and you can visit the WordGrit.com website to catch more. This is where you’ll find entries…progress logs. Not pretty, but just the truth about the status of the book – here. Reflections on the process and the the grind. This is the making of a thing that’s trying to mean something. The book is coming and this is where I’m going to launch it. – Chip
These books cut through the noise—free of buzzwords, grounded in real human behavior, and built on drive rather than hype. From clearing mental clutter in Elimination: The Buddhist Methodology for Letting Go and Moving On to breaking down authentic sales communication in How to ROQNROL Your Customers, each work merges big ideas with practical grit. With Word Grit, language itself becomes a tool for survival, invention, and unfiltered expression.

I’m a writer shaped by experience, drawn to honesty over polish, and interested in work that blends reflection with rebellion. I focus on everyday moments, question assumptions, and use writing to explore deeper truths, challenge the ordinary, and create meaning rather than wait for it to appear.
