Espionage

I’m currently reading a book titled, The Cuckoo’s Egg. I heard about it on PBS, as it was being reviewed. Being that I’m interested in espionage, I ordered it right away from Amazon. The author of this book definitely is the way I imagined him when I researched him on the Internet. I used to…

What Addictions Do You Have?

Self Reflection

Addiction, Cigarettes, Ice Tea

I will be the first to admit I have addictions. There are times I am drawn to something when staying away is the much better choice. There are other times when stress gets the best of me and I do the walk of shame of asking for a current smoker if they have a…

It took me a while to get an iPhone. I don’t use it except for the very basic things. I call my family and text some people. I play Angry Birds once in a great while. I’m still on the first level. I had MySpace at one point. It took me a while to…

Best 100 Movies, Rotten Tomatoes

Along with never finding enough time to read 100+ books, whittle down 160 Netflix queue picks, watch my growing Blu-Ray and DVD collection, write my short stories and novels, I find making lists are not only beneficial but calming.

Self Reflection

Hollywood, Movies

I came to Hollywood in late 2006 wanting to live the big Hollywood dream as a screenwriter. I went to an immersion program and ten years later I have written a few screenplays that went nowhere… really, really fast. Fast forward to ten years later, which was the end of 2016 so I’m well on…

We had spent many good years on this farm. The animals were taken care of, by far the best, compared to what it could have been. There was enough food for all of my family and abundance was enjoyed by every relative whether cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and step children. Even the piglets were happy…

Dreams, Writing

This was not one of those dreams where the person wakes up in the middle of the night wiping the sweat from one’s forehead. This was not one of those dreams where the person wakes up just in time before the knife plunges into one’s chest. This was not one of those dreams where the…
