  • The First but Not the Last

    , ,

    This book is about 20 years late but as the saying goes, better late than never. This is a story that chose me instead of the other way around. I will probably never revisit this genre again. I have 15 other stories to write that will take less time except maybe for my trilogy that…

  • Journal Entry Type #99: Not Keeping Up At All

    I am not keeping up at all with my blog. There are many reasons why. I will not go into all of them. I ended up writing seven pages in my actual journal today. I needed to get out of a lot of shit, as they say. I needed to digest everything that has been…

  • Writing Exercise #2

    Everyone whispered about the way she parted her hair, but no one had the courage to talk to her. If they had any guts to open their mouths and utter the truth, she would have realized it looked stupid. No one wore her hair like that anymore, not unless you wanted strangers pointing at you.…

  • Writing Exercise #1

    That was the time he stopped believing in the stars in the dark sky. It had not shown its true brilliance in months. The constellations were mostly hidden by the clouds. They were different shapes and sizes. When he looked up at the stars, he wished for all his scars to heal. Every time he…

  • Journal Entry Type #98: You Have No Idea, Do You?!

    ,

    There is such a thing as bad weather. (That is completely false. It’s called unbearable heat. Exclamation mark followed by another exclamation mark.) At least, it’s a dry heat. (Really? A dry heat? I get it though. There are different kinds of heat. Humidity is the Devil in the summer. It makes you sticky, gross…

  • More You Know: Writing Intros (For Writers)

    This is more for writers but it’s for everyone who wants to remind themselves they probably need clarification on the differences of what comes before the meat of any story or after. They are also known as a preface, foreword, prologue, introduction in the beginning and epilogue and afterward at the end. Let’s start with…

  • Journal Entry Type #97: More Prioritizing and Less Other

    I think I’m going to reach my 100 journal entry type before I write another poem, flash fiction story, or finish my first novel. I hope that’s not the case. This is becoming really stupid in a way. I thought of all the great ways to start this blog entry. Some quip about some random…

  • Journal Entry Type #96: I Can’t be That Old!

    ,

    I needed to handle something on my day off for work and decided to take in the sights and maybe go on a few rides. Being a weekday, it wasn’t too busy on the strip. At least the rides weren’t. I did see a wide mixture of people as you do in any touristy city.…

  • Journal Entry Type #95: Inspiration Comes From Everywhere

    I found these computer desktop photos and reminded me of the fantasy world you sometimes find in movies, tv shows, and games. I’m getting ever so closer to self-publishing my first novel. I’m excited for it to be done and for my next writing projects. I will have to churn them out about every other…

  • Journal Entry Type #94: Hot on a Thursday!

    These last few days or should I say seven days has been filled with working, watching Handmaid’s Tale and Blacklist, and hopelessly trying to catch up where I left off last year. I’ve been doing more reading despite my eyes and nose hurting like hell due to sinus pressure and allergies. I’ve never read Chuck…

  • Journal Entry Type #93: Almost There

    I’ve spent now a little over one month at my new job. I’m getting more acclimated to it. I’m thankful for this. The weather is definitely warming up. It’s going to be in the 100 range the rest of this week and all next week too. Summer is here in the Las Vegas valley area.…

  • Journal Entry Type #90: 15 Questions

    I got my second COVID shot a few days ago. I ended up with a sore arm, headache, dizziness, and mild fever. I’m still getting acclimated to my new job. There’s a lot to learn. I’ve been watching movies and TV and working since the last time I wrote a blog entry. I’m still in…

  • Journal Entry Type #89: It’s Been a While

    ,

    It’s been a while due to starting working again and feeling the full effects of the wind. I sometimes think Sin City should be called The Windy City or at least a sister city to Chicago. When I was driving on Friday my car moved from the sheer force of the wind on the highway.…
