Who is This in My Contacts?

I don't mean the ones at Facebook & the like. We usually know who those people are or, at least, have a passing familiarity with them. I'm talking about ones in our email. I've been a member of different forums & sites over the past 16 years. So, I've gotten to know quite a few people. Usually, I... Sign in to see full entry.

Dropbox

I had finished the 14th story in my collection. I had completed some of the others a couple of weeks ago. I just needed to review them & find covers. I have a couple of people who polish things up & get it ready to publish on Kindle. I'm pacing my budget, otherwise, I'd probably have had it all up... Sign in to see full entry.

What was Your, Today I Found Out?

A friend on FB posted about, pangolins. I had never heard of them before. They've been called, scaly anteaters. There are eight different species across Asia & sub saharan Africa. They are on the endangered list due to poaching. http://savepangolins...-is-a-pangolin/ Sign in to see full entry.

Stop Along the Way & Briarwood

Here are the fourth & fifth story. I have others done, but, I wait a little while between publishings, as, I have a person who does my proofreading, editing & formatting & another who does the cover. I user Fivver, so, it's less expensive than it would be elsewhere, but, I still have to warch the... Sign in to see full entry.

Origin & Meaning of Names

Mine is French & means strength. My first name isn't common & the way it's spelled, even less so. Whenever anyone spells my name for the first time, they spell it the Irish way. Which has a D in it. Whereas mine doesn't. What is the origin & meaning of your name? Sign in to see full entry.

35 New Words You Never Knew You Needed

I could relate to quite a few of these. You might find yourself identifying with some of them as well. Number two (jouska) is something I've done at times. Especially when needing to discuss something important. http://www.dose.com/...tent=FBPageList Sign in to see full entry.

Bella's Diner & Pure Imagination

The second & third installment in, what will be, a 14 short story collection. After I'm done with that, I'll be working on a fantasy series. I'm also seeking a collaborator for a romantic series. I don't read that genre often. When I do, it's more unconventional. That category is very popular & one... Sign in to see full entry.

When the World was in Black & White

When I was, I believe, four, I was looking through a photo album. I saw all of these b & w pictures. I asked my grandma, when did the world change to color? I figured, at that time, everything was in color, as were some of the pictures. Which meant, if some of the photos were b & w, then the world... Sign in to see full entry.

Inspiration--Where Does Yours Come from?

It's easy when I'm responding to a thread on a forum. It's within context of the discussion. Perhaps relating something from my own experience. With blogs, a lot of what I share pertains to my own interests or views. Writing stories, though, inspiration is more of an intangible thing. At least, for... Sign in to see full entry.

Where There are Wildflowers

Hi, everyone. I guess we're able to announce when we have our work up for sale. I had mentioned this in a previous post, but, a few years back, I was creating stories for other people. I did put a couple of my own up. More of a first chapter, to see what the reaction would be. It was at a difficult... Sign in to see full entry.

One of Life's Little Annoyances--Wrong Numbers

I'm referring to the ones received. They're irritating, because, I believe most of them are telemarketers or something. I usually have my phone on vibrate, set on the desk. I'm busy working & doing other things, so, don't often know, until, later that I've received a call. They usually don't leave a... Sign in to see full entry.

Spring Training

My husband & I are watching the Giants & Royals. These games don't count, but, still fun to watch. Being from NorCal, we tend to root for the Bay Area teams. Though, not athletic myself, I enjoy watching sports. Interestingly enough, when we first met (going on, 19 years ago), I told him I didn't... Sign in to see full entry.

Afternoon Tea

I actually have coffee, more than tea. Even that, not every day. At home, I just have the one cup. When we have breakfast out, I'll have a few. I prefer a dark roast with a little cream. Some places here serve coffee with very good flavor. Others, it's much weaker. Though, I find, whether it's... Sign in to see full entry.

Butterscotch Candy

Last Thurs we bought a bag of it at Dollar Tree. Having some tonight, it reminded me of my grandma (who passed in Sept '14 ). She use to always have butter rum Lifesavers with her. I know they have a different taste than the butterscotch candy, but, it was still a nice memory of her. Sign in to see full entry.
