Photos!!!

Last post I told you I was shooting again. Here are some of the shots. Man, it feels good to be behind the camera again. I thought it would never happen for a while there. This corona virus has pretty much killed my business. This is also the second time President Trump was directly responsibleContinue reading “Photos!!!”

I took some pictures today!

I don’t know if I told you (of course I did), but I’m also a photographer. Took some pictures today of some friends. It felt good because, thanks to this virus, I haven’t been able to get out and shoot. Now for the hard part, editing. It shouldn’t take long though, in fact it justContinue reading “I took some pictures today!”

So there I was…

This phrase really works for me when I’m telling a story. Sometimes I ‘ll be asked to relate a story about what I did over the weekend or how was my trip or even something in the past. Or people just want to be nosy and all up in my business. Mom times I comeContinue reading “So there I was…”

So there I was, minding my own business…

A friend of mine once asked me what I did over the weekend. This was in NYC and I was working in a warehouse in mid-town. I didn’t want to tell him that nothing happened, so I spun this yarn… So there I was, minding my own business, when I ran into some friends ofContinue reading “So there I was, minding my own business…”

Good times

I’m moving ahead with my novel, so life is good. It’s coming about, but I know I have a lot of editing to do. So I’m writing it quickly so that it’ll be ready for the next phase. Maybe this is the wrong way to write a novel, but I find that ideas come fasterContinue reading “Good times”

Ooops!

I meant to be more consistent with my posts. What did I say, Tuesdays and Fridays? And there I go, missing Tuesday. You should all be very disappointed in me. Slap my wrist or something. I’m not even going to say I’ve been busy. It was my own fault. That being said… So I’m workingContinue reading “Ooops!”

Oh, to be consistent

You’d think this would be easy. But it’s not. There are so many things going on in my head it’s hard to stop one thing to work on the other. I’m writing a new story, and a new idea pops up, so I get that one started, then I have to stop that to readContinue reading “Oh, to be consistent”

I know, I’m sorry

To write a blog one must be consistent, and I haven’t been. I have no excuse, and I’ll do my best not to let it happen again. In fact, I’m dedicating ever Tuesday andFriday to posting, whether I have something to say or not. The reason I haven’t been is because I got wrapped upContinue reading “I know, I’m sorry”

Here’s something new…

…although a bit sad. It just came from me. I was sitting here wondering what to write next and my fingers started moving. One thing led to another and I wrote a 1000+ word short story. Amazing. But here’s the thing: Where did it come from? I’m trying not to think that it’s personal, butContinue reading “Here’s something new…”

And now it begins.

The dreaded search to publish my book. I, a brand-spanking new author, look to become read, maybe make some money. I don’t want to become rich, I want to make a steady living from this. If I can do that I’ll be happy. Then I can move on from where I am to something better.Continue reading “And now it begins.”
