I have three more episodes of my story that are close to being completely cleaned, Now that problem is I've got a medium strength migraine ( secondary to a fractured head back in the fall of 1981). If and as you read this story, you will see there is a minor ton of conversation, most of it between... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. It's only 78 here right now, a big change from mornings that started out in the mid-80s. Of course, the reason for that is the chance for some heavy rain moving in real soon. Just a heads-up: I left a comment worth reading in response to TAPS right here. As usual, I made a 325+... Sign in to see full entry.

The Story Continues
The Fourth Hand Thomas woke with the number three in his head. Not thirty-one, but three. He had gone to sleep thinking about the uneven impressions on the leather cover of the ledger. The 3, old and deeply pressed into the material. The 1, shallower, newer, almost certainly added later. By... Sign in to see full entry.
As you can already tell by the lateness in making this post, I'm running way behind schedule. It's going to be much cooler than last week today... "only" about 92 or so. Looking at the local radar, it's clear we will get wet again in the next two hours, and I'm thinking about taking a quick nap... Sign in to see full entry.

Good Morning.
As it turned out, nothing went as planned. yesterday. I was told to see my family doctor to do a follow-up exam after seeing the specialist last week in Gainesville. After he went over a few things, he began to ask me if I was having any blackout spells or chest pain... and I haven't. He had me try... Sign in to see full entry.

I Shall Return!
After my incident last week, I have to visit my family doctor to get various blood tests taken to make sure I don't have another case of seizures. I had a series of seizures that would not be found in the category of "fun.' My lower lip is still sore where I was biting it during the seizure. The ER... Sign in to see full entry.

If Ya Haven't Noticed...
I'm adding my "Notes & Quotes" and "Grief" quotes, along with my thoughts on the topic. I have a doctor's appointment at 10 am in Valdosta, so I may not post here until early afternoon. Take care! v Sign in to see full entry.
Bots & Me
I have several people (outside of Blogit) who ask me to 'look at their book.' I've played with AI enough to spot it immediately, and so many people are using it to cheat their way to 'being a famous writer.' I've had people ask me if I was using bots to write "Different Hands On The Elephant," the... Sign in to see full entry.

Results of a Nonhuman Beta Reader... Interesting for sure
PWA was offering a a overall look at stories written using their 'Virtual Beta Reader' option. The more stuff you write using PWA, you earn credits. I hadn't been paying attention, so I just ran my 'novel-in-progress through it. It's not done, but I like the concept. Those who are reading the story... Sign in to see full entry.
Alone Again - Naturally
The title of this entry is one of my favorite Gilbert O'Sullivan songs from the 70s. My story is slowly getting ready to turn. It's been one of the strangest novels I've ever written. I started out with a bad dream and decided to make it a story. You should begin to see where it's going in this... Sign in to see full entry.
