A couple of weeks ago, I finished writing “Millie’s Further Adventures in Time,” which is the sequel to “Millie’s Adventures in time.” I know, not very original with the title. I’ve spent the time in between then and now proof reading and editing my digital manuscript. It’s tedious and sometimes boring, but I found someContinue reading “Millie’s Further Adventures in Time”

Fear In Advertising
I recently read a post by a very perspicacious WordPress blogger. It was about the power of curiosity to motivate. It got me to thinking. Really good writing and really good posts do that to me. My husband and I haven’t watched broadcast television in a very long time. We don’t stream either. We getContinue reading “Fear In Advertising”

Early sun graces Morning’s cold, icy landscape Glitter fills the air Standing and looking out the living room window at the morning sun, I realized that the wind was blowing the powder snow off of the rooftops. All those tiny ice crystals were sparkling in the bright morning sun. So very beautiful. Words can’t reallyContinue reading “Senyru 5”
