... And Now, The Weather!

You've all heard the saying, 'a game of inches.' In regards of the big storm that just went through, it was a game of a mile or so. Friends of mine about two miles to the west of me got seven inches of snow while we got about an inch of rain that finally turned to snow as the storm was leaving. We... Sign in to see full entry.

Follow The Links

I was doing some research for 'Just Dreaming,' and found a link to some info I would need for another 'self help' book I am working on and I followed it. In that article, I found another link and decided that since I was already way off my original topic, why not follow that as well? A long time and... Sign in to see full entry.

Have Coke (and Power), Will Write!

The new medicine is still making me a bit dizzy but as long as I don't go out and play basketball or something stupid, I'm able to do my normal stuff, just a bit slower than normal. I spent part of the day fleshing out a couple new story lines for later and am working on and toward finishing a... Sign in to see full entry.

Go Ask Alice...

Whew! I was given a new medication this morning for a heart defect I've had since about 1998 and they told me it 'could make me feel funny.' If 'funny' was the right word, this med makes me feel 'hilarious' because I couldn't stand up for a few hours. While I think the med is making the cardiac... Sign in to see full entry.

Bing Me Again

Not to double post in this area today but I wanted to share an idea. Annicita made a comment about adding 'lucid dreaming' to my "Just Dreaming" story. I went to Bing... I never use Google... found the info I needed and realized that while I already had plans to use it, I hadn't used the term in my... Sign in to see full entry.

Sleepless in Suburbia

I think I've mentioned I was working on another serial killer story behind my 'dream' story earlier this week. I was having a sleepless night last night, drifting in and out of sleep when I suddenly startled awake. I knew the 'body' of the story but hadn't yet figured out how it would end... until I...

Operator? Are You There?

I've been unable to get online the last 30 some hours after a major car accident that took down about half a mile or more of Internet cabling. We maintained power simply because the cables giving us power came in from the opposite direction. Houses to the west of us were without power for about 18... Sign in to see full entry.

Please Help Me, I'm Falling...

I'm working on a novella about a serial killer based on a composite of about three guys I knew while working in the psych ward of a major prison. This is set in 1988 and the gist of it is the killer calls the cops and tells them where he has placed the bodies of his victims. He is a homeless man... Sign in to see full entry.

Resolute Resolutions For 2016

I've pondered exactly what to say here on this final day of 2015. I know I'll want to add something or take something away shortly after posting this but I'll just leave it. May the new year be all you hope it to be. V 2016 Resolutions A) Write an average of 1000 'usable words' every day. My old... Sign in to see full entry.

It Pays To Vacuum Sometimes

A busy day today. The Christmas tree is down, ornaments put away, the carpet was vacuumed, and everything is restored to normal. I got an email that the special fish I wanted will be available soon, I'll work to finish my 175 gallon aquarium set up. This will allow me to start my section on tropical...
