Whew, I think the heat is off

If it was ever on. I'm probably not popular enough for anyone to seriously think I would consider hatching any kind of insidious plot. It was just a lucky (unlucky?) coincidence that I happened to be writing a silly blog about how I planned to take over BN and dispose of chris2303, Ariala, and the... Sign in to see full entry.

I DIDN'T DO IT! I'm completely innocent!

And I have an airtight alibi -- I was composing my previous post when Chris disappeared. My plan isn't due to go into affect for another six weeks. It's essential for him to be around when the plan goes into motion. I'm innocent, I tell you! There's absolutely no truth to the rumours about evil... Sign in to see full entry.

Okay, I'm through being all slobbery and sentimental.

Now back to my nefarious plot to take over BN! My research on BN is part of the plan. I'm planting misleading hints that the more different blogs a member has, if he or she posts to them regularly, the better his or her ratings will be. The evidence for this will be the large number of blogs that... Sign in to see full entry.

All a Writer Really Wants is Readers

Fame and fortune would also be nice. The fortune part, anyway. I'm not sure fame is all that its cracked up to be. Attentive readers, though -- that's priceless. The only things I can think of that mean more to me are my grandchildren, my son, and the happy memories from my marriage (it was a pretty... Sign in to see full entry.

Congrats, Ariala

You deserve the Top Blog award. You are my hero and my ideal. Or should that be "heroine and role model?" You are very talented, and funny, and prolific, and kind, and talented, and...damn, where'd I put that thesaurus. I haven't read all of your posts yet. But everything you write is brimming with...

As Addictive as Painkillers

Once you get your feet wet this blogging stuff is a helluva lot of fun. It's a real time killer, though. I can see that it requires a certain amount of mature judgment in application of priorities to avoid becoming addicted. Unfortunately notapoet is still just a big kid. He's hooked already. Which...

Just a Quickie -- Please Read

This may seem inappropriate -- and it sure ain't what you're expecting. But "Glory, Hallelujah," I don't care! I want to welcome Amber Nicole to the world and I want everyone who can listen or read to join me in my joy and pride. She is beautiful, weighs 5 pounds and 13 ounces, and arrived at 7:15...

"A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the Way to..."

...the Blogging Network. Actually it happened after I got here and cruised around for a short while trying to decide what to read. I wanted to get a feel for what this blogging stuff is all about. Many hours later I had read a lot of interesting opinions and observations -- and still had no idea... Sign in to see full entry.

Don't Fence Me In

"Sex and Violence Sells." Or so they say. Welllll...maybe. But don't fence me in to a category. Particularly one that I may not be very good at. Only time will tell if I can write successfully with plenty of sex and violence. Not today, though. For the time being I'm writing in the category of... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

Notapoet on "the writing life," sex & violence (maybe), and "Everything Else." Mostly "Everything Else" because none of the other categories are comprehensive enough for someone old enough to have an opinion on just about everything -- including "sex & violence." Sorry about the misleading category name (not really). Cuss at me if you feel misled.
