It looks like a very warm and pleasant day is in store for today. At 9:50, it's 'only' 67, but we are going to touch 90 for the first time in several months. After a rather chilly winter in Florida, it's nice to be warm again. I take blood thinners, secondary to several heart surgeries, and they... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. So far, it has been another typical Monday morning. I've taken three calls since I opened my browser to Blog-It-ville, and I'll probably get at least one more before I finish. I'm posting the last two or three episodes of "The Russian" story this week, and then it is done. Currently,... Sign in to see full entry.

Another late morning entry. We stayed up to watch our normal Friday/Saturday night program, "On Patrol Live," until midnight, and instead of calling it a night, Lisa decided she wanted to watch another episode of "The X-Files." Soooo... one episode led to the next, and by the time we were done, it... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. We have a storm moving in that might get us, or it might only graze us. It depends on when you look at the radar. With that in mind, we took the puppies out to get them used to going outside to 'do their thing' before it began to rain. That is a chore we do at least twice a day. It... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. It looks to be another beautiful day here in the 'armpit of Florida.' Another day with a cool start but an expected high of 84. I can dig it. I'm working on "Beyond The Fence," a story born from actual events in my backyard. In that dense brush, we can hear 'something' moving through... Sign in to see full entry.

We finally got the replacement parts and after twenty minutes of fiddling around, our Internet connection was restored. I meant to come back here to update our situation, but I got so involved with my fresh new story, I didn't even know it was dark. My lovely wife brought dinner to me in my office,...

Allegedly, I will have the new parts to get us back online later this morning. After spending hours on the phone with Xfinity, they finally decided that the big black tower that has all the flashing lights and wires going in and out of it had died, and they shipped a new one that should arrive...

For reasons that remain a mystery to me, my Internet is down. The router and the black box that is connected to it are completely dark. I called Xfinity tech and after NINE attempts, I finally got through to a human. Sadly, said human doesn't speak English as a third or even fourth language. End... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. If you read my post in this area from late last night, you can see how I am going to attempt to 'self-market' a little better. You can pay people to market for you... and to an extent, that works... and you can allow your publisher to market your stuff for you... and again, to an... Sign in to see full entry.

This is the lead-in for my latest novel. I need to wait a week or ten days, and then do another read through on it to be sure the obvious errors are cleaned. I sent a big chunk out to my best beta reader, and she found two small glitches that were easily fixed. Read this plug for the story and tell... Sign in to see full entry.
