Yeah, a dream is available. Yep, I could probably swing it for the purchase. It’s a small, friendlier town…off the mains…the perfect place to carry out my writing [...]

I had to run an errand yesterday that required Big Iron…the 7000 pound 400hp beastie…I simply did not have enough bungee cords to carry what I needed to pick up on The Dragon you see…
Besides, you’re supposed to start those cage thingies every once and a while.

Paid the bills, don’t have needed parts to work on The Dragon, work hasn’t called…all out of excuses.
Working on Storm Rider. Sheesh these characters! They keep trying to take the story in new directions.
I’ve got two sequels in mind…and I haven’t finished the durn original book yet!

Me: “Yes. Yes I do.”
Him: “That doesn’t bother you?”
Me: “No, not at all. I’ve got news for you. I LIKE [...]

My company has announced that through a buyout and if necessary, layoffs, they are getting rid of 500 of us. That’s a big number…we’ll lose lots of talent, and there is already too much to do…I can’t see that number leaving and still having a functional company.
Not sure what it means for me. I find [...]
