Chatbot Grades My Story, & More "River's Bend

Good morning... er... afternoon. I stayed up until 4 am to finish my sci-fi horror short story, 'The Overseer's Garden.' It came in at ~21,000 words, perfect for my underlying goal. It's also the story I've been posting here. Cover below, I ran it by a ChatGPT bot to get its opinion... and this is... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. It looks to be another lovely day, with a high of 88. We really need some rain here, as the grass is looking almost a pale green due to the lack of rain. The advanced forecast indicates that we will not receive any significant rain until at least Friday. Our dogs have been outside,... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm All Bold... But Now I Know Why - & More "Rivers Bend"

*** I'm figuring out why this segment is in bold and I can't change it... right now, but it won't happen again! **************** Good morning. I have to run into Valdosta in a few minutes to have all of the areas they cut and burned off patches of skin cancer last week. ​This isn't the first time I... Sign in to see full entry.

Sunday Morning Coming Down - A Joke & More Rivers Bend

Good morning. It's a pleasant 77 right now, headed to about 92 this afternoon. We were going to go out dancing last night, but on our way to the car, I saw we had a flat tire. I could have changed it without much trouble, but after a discussion, we decided it was a sign that perhaps we should stay... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm So Sorry, Uncle Albert... With A Nod to The Beatles

Good afternoon. I missed yesterday completely. It wasn't for anything important. I just got caught up spending time with my loving wife and the dogs, and then with the little remnants of the day, I worked on the final edit run on "The Overseers' Garden," a story that is going to go crazy among the...

Good morning. This day got started way too early for me, but with all the editing I am doing as I post 2000+ words in two places, it was probably for the best. I have never written so many back-and-forth conversations in my life, and I want to make sure it's grammatically correct. It's also a pain... Sign in to see full entry.

Oops! I Posted the The Wrong Story Here & An Offer to All

Good afternoon. I got started late... and then got involved editing something, and the next thing I know, it's after noon. I've done my writing for 45 minutes and then gone outside for 15 minutes three times already. Oh, well. After talking it over with my wife, I will be pulling her space from my...

Yeah, About Yesterday. & More 'River's Bend'

Things went a tad haywire yesterday... so instead of writing it all over again, this is a slightly modified of what I posted on FB. It's been another day, but we are finally beginning to figure something out. For over a month, I've been extremely fatigued. I've managed to maintain my daily exercise... Sign in to see full entry.

Game Delayed, But I'm ALMOST Back! (& more River's Bend!)

As the 'headline' says, I'm tied up unexpectedly... more no later than 2:30 EST. V Enjoy this super long entry of "Where the River Bends." The Pam Talk It was nearly ten o’clock when Lainey finally settled in at her kitchen table with a glass of chamomile tea. The fair had been sweet, the kind of... Sign in to see full entry.

Yesterday,,, It Feels So Far Away! - More River's Bend

Good morning. I got that much down yesterday when a series of unexpected events began, and I never got back here. By the time I realized that, it was late at night, and I figured I would call it a 'sick day,' and not do it. I usually spend about three to five hours writing, but I only managed about...
