Age is as Age Does
I am busily working on my second novel. Well actually it is the third, but if you read the “About” page you will understand that my first is holding the laundry room door open. It is the printed first draft manuscript of my very first book and at 110,000 words it keeps the door from […]
Top Amazon Author is as Top Amazon Author Does
Having nothing in my head the other day I asked myself a question. “I wonder who the top authors are on Amazon.” I more or less wanted to see how many modern authors were on the list and how many were fiction writers. Since I did not know the answer I went to my trusty […]
Ruby is as Ruby Does – A story of a remarkable Boxer
Since this is a blog about fiction favorites I thought I would take a little detour. Rather than discuss a particular piece of fiction I would like to take you on a small journey and tell a story that is real but sounds like fiction. The key difference between a fictional story and reality is […]
Moment is as Moment Does
I have been nominated for the Best Moment Award by melissajanda on her wonderful blog; The Buzz on Writing. You can visit the post and view an amazing video that she created in honor of receiving the award. Her video is an inspiration to all of us who toil in the loneliest of […]
Ten Rules is as Ten Rules Does
I was planning on putting a piece of poetry on this post today but somehow my folder is missing. I spent way too much time looking so I am in the position of having to repeat I post I did last year. I think I had about three or four readers at the time, so maybe it […]
WordPress Family is as WordPress Family Does
I have been nominated by three very talented bloggers for the WordPress Family Award. More about the award in a minute, but here are the three beautiful family members that don’t seem to mind me reaching across the table for another roll Saunved writes thoughtful posts on Saunved that seem to question what others may […]
High and Mighty is as High and Mighty Does
I was taking a writing break one day ( Not the whole day. Maybe an hour or so heh, heh) and happened upon a commercial for a television program provider who was a competitor to my provider. The ad offered all kinds of wonderful things that were not available to me on my current system. […]
Trout is as Trout Does
I don’t usually post twice on the same day but do have some news to share on Fiction Favorites. I have another story that was the winning entry in the Kilgore Trout Excerpt contest. You can read it at the Perpetual Motion Machine Publishing site: http://goo.gl/mitHZ or here http://goo.gl/lNRZ3 The story is a fictional chapter in a fictional […]
Spring is as Spring Does
I thought I would take some time off from Fiction Favorites to smell the roses. After all this is spring (in some places) and time to look around and take in the great sights that spring has to offer. If you have read the about page you know that I live in South Texas on […]
Grateful is as Grateful Does
We send our prayers to those innocence ones in Boston who were needlessly involved in the insane practices of the selfish and murderous individuals who take advantage of American freedom to attempt its destruction. I almost cancelled this post but doing so would only acknowledge a lasting effect of the criminal act. We need to push […]
