It is Stream of Consciousness Saturday time again and this week’s prompt is “liqu.” Yes, you see what I wrote, liqu. Linda Hill advised us that we could either use a word the starts with liqu or has liqu in it somewhere. If you would like to join this happy band of nut cases go […]
Friday JohnKu – AKA – TGIF
This week had its challenges for sure. Stepping away from the personal, the week saw a couple of good things as well. Gwen Plano and I finished the draft of The Contract. By a draft, I am referring to the manuscript that is ready for a Beta read. We will be giving it over to […]
Thursday – A Little Personal – Stella
Our family is saddened that Stella succumbed to her age Tuesday. She passed peacefully and is now with her brother across the Rainbow bridge. We took her to the veterinarian, and he gave her what she needed to say goodbye. Stella was born under a Mesquite bush in August 2001 in San Antonio Texas. She […]
Wednesday Story Day – AKA – Hump Day
It is Wednesday Story Day again, and last week we were stunned to have Trish Severide show up at the hospital. She learned that there was a pretty big insurance policy payment waiting for her. She and we all learned that the insurance policy and will of the parents has gone missing. So I […]

It is Stream of Consciousness Saturday time again and this week’s prompt is “cramp.” Linda Hill says we can use it any way we want. Other than the obvious I’m going to have to figure a different use. If you would like to be part of this joyous band please visit Linda’s blog and see […]
Thursday – A Little Personal – Lucy and Bailey Go Out
“John.” “What Stella?” “Do you see these two wolfhounds poised to devour my food?” “Your bowl is on my books. Maybe they are thinking of reading.” “Not even funny in your author world, John. How about getting these two outside.” “Hey Pops. Check out Lucy.” “What’s she doing?” “Still trying to get the lizard.” “Lucy, […]
