When All The Doubts Are Crystal Clear
When are people going to learn? I try to avoid posting on current events in this blog unless there is a clear connection to the business of writing and publishing fiction. However, the latest FaceBook outrage has made me very … Continue reading
Solar Freakin’ Ripoff
Okay. So the Solar Freakin’ Roadway video has been making the rounds for a while now, on Facebook and Twitter and such. I watched it and I got a good chuckle out of it. It’s in the style of videos … Continue reading

Notes From All Over
I’ve had kind of rough week, health-wise, a sinus issue that has left me tired and achy and out of sorts, and has cut my productivity. The famous schizo-effective Saint Louis weather hasn’t helped. (Monday: sunny and fair, Tuesday: blizzard, … Continue reading
