Sorry, sorry, I know I should not have gone there, but in my defense, Pink Floyd’s LP, The Wall would not exit my head. I could not help myself. I started to redo the words almost instantly. We don’t need no cement barrier, We don’t need no big fat wall, No dark suppression on the… Read More All in All He’s Just Another Prick For The Wall….
On January 1st, my wife and I started the big countdown until we both retire at the end of the year. Yup, the goal is to retire by the end of THIS YEAR. We are both so friggin’ excited, we can hardly stand it. Did you know there are multiple ways to do a countdown?… Read More The Big Countdown…
Every year I soundly refuse to write a bunch of New Year’s resolutions that I know I won’t keep. This year is different because the one resolution I need to make is that important to me and my wife. What could be so life-altering that I would change my long-standing rule on resolutions? Well…I’m going… Read More A New Resolve…
The title above auto-corrected to Tits the Season and I almost left it. Then I thought I better change it back!

Last night I buried myself in my new WIP, trying to clean it up before sending the script… Read More Slacker, Slacker, Manuscript Hacker…

I’ve decided the perfect ending to #BuzzWeek is to resurrect this old blog and share the information once again. I do thank Nancy Anne Healy for starting #BuzzWeek. I am adding my scene from my work in progress called, The Panty Thief for two reasons. First, I stole some of the concepts from this blog… Read More Good…Good…Good…Good Vibrations – Revisited
So…okay, I realize this is kind of a gross title considering this is a special Thanksgiving blog, but I’m going to proceed anyway. Because, you know, that’s what I do sometimes. As I advance in age, I realize I am becoming my father. Gasp! They say that people begin to follow in the footsteps of… Read More Regurgitating Stories…Special Thanksgiving Blog
What’s the deal with the snubbing of paranormal, sci-fi, fantasy, and dystopian in lesfic? They are all at the bottom of the pecking order. I scratch my head all the time when I am reminded of this. The data and marketing have not changed over the four years this became evident to me. Recently, I… Read More What the Peck….Lesfic Pecking Order
