Once a year we recognize Veterans for their service to their countries. Today in the US we celebrate Veterans Day. In other countries it's called Armistice Day. It's a day to remember the sacrifices you or your loved ones made...

We have a high today of 62 F. It's 41 F right now at 7:30 in the morning. It's promising to be a nice day. It's NaNoWriMo month. I'm ten days into the 50K challenge and have 40,238 words already written. I expect to crush the 50K...

It's a cold one here today. I woke up to 28F this morning. Our high is 50F for today. Nothing much planned for today. I have the laundry done. I only need to fold it. Then I'll be writing. My goal today is another 5000 plus...

You all probably forgot I existed by now. It's been an exciting couple of months. First, I finished the fourth edition of Scarred. I won't be publishing the fourth edition until I can get the new ISBNs for it. So, next year,...

It's a pleasant Fall morning. The temp reads 45 F. After the kind of summer we had, I'll take it. It's pleasant enough that I don't need to turn on the heater and I do have my bedroom window open. It's refreshingly cool in the...

It's been a very good day today. Earlier this week I was totally frustrated with AI and my work with Manifest Destiny. Nothing I did helped until this morning. I've been noodling this problem since Tuesday or Wednesday. Today, I...

I had good intentions of starting out the month here yesterday, but good intentions are just that - good intentions. I'm here now. It's been a roller coaster ride for the past week. Last weekend was the UntitledTown Book and...

Fall has arrived! We also have the lowest temp of the week today. Our high is 61 F. NICE! Soon the fall colors will be seen across the landscape. I can hardly wait. Fall is the precurser to Winter, and who doesn't...

Well, Fall is here or it's about to be. I'm not sure when the equinox happens, but it can happen already. I've been ready for Fall since the first day of Spring. It was a hot summer. I ran my A/C more than any other year....

I know it's been a long while since I was here. Lots happening. A week ago I went to the 50+ Retreat. It was three days of wonderful ministry, food, fellowship, and reconnecting with people I haven't seen in a year. The picture...

Boo Hoo, I lost my writing streak on here. That tells you, I've been busy writing. I'm in a lull right now, so I'll try to catch up here. That doesn't mean I won't be writing today. I most definitely will. It just means that right...

The month is winding down. It's 50 F and feels great coming through my patio door long before sunrise. I've been awake since 1:30. The laundry is done. I enjoyed reading your posts this morning before I get to work on Storm. I...

I know you probably thought you would never see me again. It's been a very busy month. Today I woke up on fire. My brain is ready to explode with everything that's busting to come out. But I thought I would let you in on what's...

Good morning from another smoky day in Green Bay, Wisconsin. I'll be happy when the wildfires are contained and smoke no longer rules the day and I can open my patio door again. That's my only complaint. Yesterday was a good...

I don't know what your weather is like where you are, but here we're dealing with wildfire smoke from the Canadian wildfires in Ontario Canada. We've had daily alerts for the past 3-4 days. We had a slight reprieve this morning...
