I finally got my new story back on track. I had inadvertently jumped ahead of myself in posting it here. If you have a minute, read it from the beginning to see if the story line 'flows.' My eyes and brain are tired of trying to un-chop the lettuce and ham salad I made. I will have to step away from... Sign in to see full entry.

As I sit down to write this note, I'm listening to Grace Slick, Paul Kantner and Marty Balin in one of their finer tunes as Jefferson Airplane singing their 1975 song, 'Miracles.' In my never to be humble opinion, the only song that topped that was the 1967 ' White Rabbit. ' I saw the group in... Sign in to see full entry.

In Response To Pat B.
Pat had posted a question that had nothing at all to what follows. I answered her orignal question, but apparently my fingers weren't finished with the passage I had just finished, and my answer devolved into the following display of emotions. She had asked in her post, Good luck - you're persistent... Sign in to see full entry.
I've screwed up my ordering on my newest writing effort. While I will get it straightened out, this is the problem of a 'sausage factory' assembly of writing. Due to the fact that I decided to write this story in segments and that as I was doing so, I wasn't thinking properly, my tentative assembly... Sign in to see full entry.

Busy Day Details & A Joke
It twas a busy day. I spent too much time on the phone with two potential clients for my broadcasting system to do much effective writing. I'm positive that I'll land both clients, but after over three months of not being able to write, I would have rather have been writing. I heard on the local... Sign in to see full entry.
The Obvious
A long time ago, my Dad told me about his '5 x 5' rule. For the longest time, I lived by it. Then I got a little bit sidetracked, which led me down some confused paths. In the past few days, I've begun to re-center myself and remember Dad's rule. 5 x 5 Rule: If it’s not gonna matter in 5 years,... Sign in to see full entry.

Taking A Perspective Look At My Life
It looks like another nice day out. Wednesday find us taking a dip down from these temps in the mid 30's to highs in the low to mid 20's. That's a far cry from the highs of -3 we had a year ago. I can take these temps without crying too much. I don't know why, but I woke up about 4 AM and there was... Sign in to see full entry.

Working For It
I'm working on some real emotional stuff right now, and a response by Sea Gypsy made me find a three minute Thai ad and post a link to it. Let me explain why it hit me and then give you another video to watch. This first video, titled ' Unsung Hero, ' was something that came up in my YT feed several... Sign in to see full entry.
Blather... Endless Blather... An A Joke
Not to brag or anything, but by the time I shut everything down last night, I had written over 7,000 'good words.' My definition of 'good words' are what is left after I run it through Grammarly and Typely. Just as some of my posts and responses get long, I am constantly being told by Grammarly,...
