I later meandered out to the West Coast and have remained off-center ever since. Living in Los Angeles, I achieved my Career 1.0 dream by working on big-budget movies for over a decade. If you’ve seen a Will Smith or Tom Cruise blockbuster action movie, you’ve likely seen my work. The work was challenging and fulfilling… until I got tired of telling other people’s stories. I longed to tell my own. So, now I’m pursuing my Career 2.0 dream—a dream I’ve had since youth—to write stories that pull a reader in and make the everyday world fade away. I’ve since moved to a more rural setting north of San Francisco with my lovely wife, vibrant children, and a dog that has discovered the secret to infinite energy. His name is Trip and he fits the name in four unique ways. I have a simple storytelling goal that can be wildly difficult to achieve. I want to entertain you with little black marks arranged on a white background. Read the marks and join me on a grand adventure. If all goes well, you’ll slip under the spell and so walk alongside heroes and villains. You’ll feel what they feel. You’ll understand the world as they do. My writing and your reading is a kind of mechanical telepathy. I translate my thoughts and emotions through characters and conflict in a written story. If the transmission works, your heart will pound, your heart will break, and you will care. At the very least, hopefully you’ll escape your world and live in mine for a little while."},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":["Oday, William"]},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by William Oday in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22Oday+William%22&te=&rt&=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Author Website","value":"View <a href=\"https://williamoday.com/ \" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">personal or professional website</a> for William Oday"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by William Oday in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=Oday+William\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"William Oday"},{"label":"Significant Title","value":"Sole survivor"},{"label":"Digital Archives Identifier","value":"william_oday"},{"label":"Digital Archives Collection Name(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Date Added","value":"2019/07/19"},{"label":"Filename","value":"william_oday.jpg"},{"label":"Title","value":"William Oday"},{"label":"Item Type","value":["Text"]},{"label":"Item Format or Genre","value":["Biography files","Bibliographies","Portraits","Photographs"]},{"label":"Search SC Local Arts for this Author or Artist","value":"<a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?filter_363=william_oday&applyState=true\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">William Oday</a>"},{"label":"Collection(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Author Name (Controlled)","value":["William Oday"]}],"description":"William Oday","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ecd17fcc-bf24-4044-ae1e-97c1b39f847d/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"William Oday","height":623,"width":1191,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ecd17fcc-bf24-4044-ae1e-97c1b39f847d/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ecd17fcc-bf24-4044-ae1e-97c1b39f847d","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1,2,4]}]},"height":623,"width":1191},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ecd17fcc-bf24-4044-ae1e-97c1b39f847d/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ecd17fcc-bf24-4044-ae1e-97c1b39f847d/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/ecd17fcc-bf24-4044-ae1e-97c1b39f847d/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/logo"}
