I slept in until 8:45 this morning, a rare accomplishment in a household with three dogs. The smallest one, Hannah, was cuddled in beside me, the middle dog Brutus, was on the bed at my feet, and Buster was on the rug that is beside my bed. I guess we all need some closeness now and again. It's been... Sign in to see full entry.

A busy, busy day. I found an interesting sales tool that I wrote about over in my 'Let's Write' blog area. I approved the audio for my latest Audible book this afternoon. It cost me $375 to have 'I Remember Judy - A Love Story' done. It is an eight hour audio book. I should be able to recoup most of... Sign in to see full entry.

I just published "Erosion Affects Daily Life" as an Amazon ebook. Thanks to everyone who helped me with this story! When I publish the anthology book that this story will ultimately become a part, I'll include you for your assistance. My eyes are getting a bit worse, and without jacking the font up...

Eagle Eyes?

I need my 'eagle eyes' for the last entry of the story below. I'm going to submit this story to Kindle about noon, two PM tomorrow if no one says anything. This story will be 'Chapter Three' of my anthology book of "Ten Quirky & Scary Stories." Thanks! Sign in to see full entry.

Erosion Affects Everyday Life - Part Three

Once they had a firm grip on his, they fed his body headfirst into the machine. From my crouched position, I only got a brief look at his face, and I could tell that... Sign in to see full entry.

I spent the morning watching a documentary on Amazon Prime about the making of the Beach Boys album, "Pet Sounds." If you are a music fan in general and a Beach Boys fan in particular, you need to watch the show. I was a huge music fan as a kid, and even at the age of 14 when 'Pet Sounds' came out,...

Erosion Affects Everyday Life - Part Two

It's Hot! The summer of 1975 had been a hot one for Michigan standards. The average highs would typically be in the low 80s, but this summer was putting those averages to shame. I had been working on my 1971 Camaro SS that Saturday morning after having an issue with something in the ignition. I... Sign in to see full entry.

A True Story

SSDD... same stuff - different day. A dozen calls so far this morning. What ya gonna do shy of shutting your cell off? It's a 'nice day' here... about 70 with a steady 20 mph breeze off Mama Superior. I have to mow my grass, but I'll probably do that tomorrow. I've been working on my mob story in...

Crazy day. I got a lot of stuff done, just not in places where I could post it up here tonight. I spent a lot of time working on adding a bunch of back shows for a new program on on my network. It finally warmed up to 71, but it's headed down to 40 again tonight. Yippee! Sign in to see full entry.

My dogs woke me up early this morning for reasons I don't yet understand, but once I'm up, I have a hard time going back to sleep. I took them outside to play Frisbee for wa few minutes and then everyone wanted to come back inside. It was 48 degrees outside, and now they are all curled up and... Sign in to see full entry.
