I hated to do it, but the nasty part of my murder story will have to wait one more day. The entry I just made was 2400 words and what follows is another 2300. I remember when I first came here in 2002, people had a bloody seizure when I posted 700 words. I write until my story arc hits its peak.... Sign in to see full entry.

An uneasy night for some reason. Some might think it weird, but I felt as if someone or something was trying to tell me something. I could 'hear' it 'speaking,' but I was unable to understand the message. I woke up several times to hear the same 'voice' talking to me. In times past when this... Sign in to see full entry.

My town only got about three inches of snow last night, while others around me got as much as ten inches. Oddly enough, most of it will melt today as the temps head back toward 42 today. It looks slippery outside right now, so I'll wait at least two hours for the melt to get started. Other than... Sign in to see full entry.

So far, the 'big storm' seems to be mainly all wind. We have a steady 15 to 30 mph wind coming in off Mama Superior, meaning that it is as cold as ice. As of just ten minutes ago, a quick step outside shows only about two inches of snow. Tomorrow begins another warm up cycle. I got a lot done today.... Sign in to see full entry.
Despite the long day yesterday (five more hours on the road) it was a pleasant trip. Virtually no traffic, clear skies, beautiful scenery, and lots of wildlife along the edge of the road. I saw several deer, lots of eagles, especially while driving through the Seney National Wildlife Refuge. The... Sign in to see full entry.

Dang. I completely forgot that I have to be in Marquette, a two hour drive from here, in about... you guessed it... two hours and ten minutes. In the infamous words of Arnold Schwarzenegger... "I'll be back!" Sign in to see full entry.

Lord, Save Me From Stupid People
I belong to about a dozen 'writing groups' and some are very active and others are sound asleep most of the time. Sadly, this post is typical of these so called 'writers.' If you can't figure out how to kill off a character, you might want to find another hobby. I want to kill off a character. (It's... Sign in to see full entry.
It was 50 yesterday and now we have a 'winter storm warning' in the middle of April. Hurray! I've got a number of projects that require my immediate attentions, so I'll keep this short. My murder story is about to explode, but I can't work on it properly with the number of distractions I am... Sign in to see full entry.

I went up to Lake Superior and walked along some shoreline just to clear the brain matter. It may have been 46 outside yesterday, but the 'gentle breezes' coming off Mama Superior made it feel more like -40. Still, I was dressed for it and I hung around for about two hours. This week starts some... Sign in to see full entry.
