It's weird. I finished two stories of hugely different in length,and yet they finish one day apart. 'I Remember Judy' is done. I will probably work on a rewrite of another story starting tomorrow, but this weekend is going to be confusing. I have to go down state early tomorrow morning to fix some...

My 'super-duper Grammar Guru' has me almost finshed up. As I explained earlier somewhere here, she is areal tight on a lot of things most readers aren't even aware were 'rules.' As I recall, we tossed water ballons on kids like her! LOL... (Just joking.) About an hour ago, she sent me another 8500... Sign in to see full entry.

I just posted the penultimate post in my book about my wife. As I read it again, it made me wistful as a small wave of grief swept over me... again. Then I got toward the end of it and read the last three paragraphs where I quoted and then linked the song to which I referred. In every way and... Sign in to see full entry.

While I wait for my grammar guru to send me back the last half of my story, I've begun to lay it into ebook format. It's always the first ten percent of a story that sets the tone in an ebook. I've received and corrected roughly the first 40% of the story, but the entire story is laid in. What I am... Sign in to see full entry.

As the Rascals sang back in 1968, ' It's A Beautiful Morning! ' Or at least the start of it will be. I am getting multiple notices that we have about twelve to eighteen hours of heavy rain and thunderstorms rolling in about 3PM. Tis the season. I have to run over to the hospital lab to get my...

This is probably not the best subject to bring up here, but I gotta say something. One of the writing clubs that I have really enjoyed for the past two years has started to become a club that I'm seriously beginning to think I need to walk away from. From the git, I always thought the the leader of... Sign in to see full entry.

I stayed up until about two in the morning last night and I finished my cancer story with the exception of my epilogue. I'm both glad and sad to see this story end. It gave me a outlet for some of the pent-up grief that I was experiencing and it was a test of my ability to challenge my ability to... Sign in to see full entry.

Big Storm Passing Through!

I wanted to finish last minute editing of my cancer story, but the lights have been flickering for about the last ten minutes. I settled for posting another 1100 words in the story and closed down my Word app. I don't need to do a lot of work in a story, especially as I'm building words and emotions...

Great Sales - Odd Ratings!

I just had a big 'surge' of sales today. I'm not compulsive about tracking my sales, but I do it twice a day, morning and night. I had checked it this morning, and for some reason, I left the tab open. I just 'F5'd' the page (reloading the page), and I see that I've sold thirteen stories since about...

I'm not exactly sure what was going on this morning, but we had an apparent car/criminal chase that ended about two blocks away. The 'bad guy' hit a utility pole, causing several blocks in the area (including yours truly) to lose power. I normally spend the morning writing and reflecting,so this... Sign in to see full entry.
