The trick here is three flash fiction pieces that stand alone, or together. In which case the order they appear in doesn’t matter. “Join my respite from these wretched fools” he said. “But they are me, and I can’t deny them” she replied. “Then you are doomed for their wretched pride” he cried. “Though IContinue reading “Flash Fiction…in three steps”

100 Word Flash Fiction…in 5 parts
Saturday night and the local bar, the popular one, was jumping. Looking through the large pane windows you could see that it could accommodate dozens. The lights were low in the peach and blue room but the energy was high as waitresses flew. There were people laughing and drinking at the tables in front ofContinue reading “100 Word Flash Fiction…in 5 parts”
My apologies!
If you’ve been staying tuned you noticed that I’ve been writing out a story. Every Tuesday and every Friday a new passage would come out to delight those who yearn for days of yore. And yes, I know how corny that sounds. I’ve come to a part that I thought would write itself, yet itContinue reading “My apologies!”
I was asked to write a passage…
…that employed emotion. I actually followed up on one of my Quickies, because it seemed germane. Take a read, tell me what you think. She knew it was coming. Ever since she got that text saying “We need to talk.” She continued her lesson to a class of fifth graders, anxious for the day toContinue reading “I was asked to write a passage…”
The Biz
Just got the new business up and running, and I can’t wait to be rolling in cash. Well, maybe not rolling. One can hope for the best. This shutdown is still holding things up, but I’m hoping for the best. Photography really is a passion for me. I used to do some really cool stuffContinue reading “The Biz”
I’m on my way

So we’ve begun, and I’m so glad to get started. I’ve been in this house too long. It’s driving meContinue reading “I’m on my way”
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…”
