Ten Questions Not to Ask an Author
The inspiration for this list was preparing myself to attend four book festivals this year. I was making a list of items that I needed, and it occurred to me that I should prepare some answers to obvious questions. One thing leads to another, and the list is born. 10 If you meet an […]
Views of the Neighborhood – Rockport Texas
Rockport Texas is a town close to Port Aransas and was hit by Hurricane Harvey as well. Since the sun was out for the first time in ten years, the Producer and I decided to drive there and check up on how my books fared in the bookstores. Although we didn’t locate any books we […]
Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt “OC”
Occupying my post today is Stream of Consciousness Saturday. So true. This weeks prompt is “oc.” That is correct, and the rules as laid down by the dungeon master, Linda Hill is to find a word that starts with “oc,” and use it. There are bonus points redeemable for a new Tesla if one […]
Friday JohnKu – AKA – TGIF
Another work week down. This one was quite chilly. We had temps in the 80’s on Monday. By Wednesday we were in the 30’s, and the schools were closed due to sleet. I think I have said we are not built for this kind of weather. Today is supposed to rain with a high […]
Thursday – A Little Personal – Housebound
“Hey, Lucy. Do you want to come up here on the couch you look a little down.” “To tell you the truth, I wish there was something to play with.” “I know it is boring when you can’t go outside.” “Yeah, why can’t we go out? “For heaven’s sake, Lucy. Can you take a look […]
Wednesday Story Day – AKA – Hump Day
It is Wednesday Story Day again. Last week we left Sheriff Seth Gibson storming out of Jason McDonnell’s office because he was thwarted from interviewing Lucas without the permission of Lucas’ doctor.

Top Ten Things Not to Do on a City Tour
The inspiration for this post was thinking about super cities and the possibility of taking tours of them. There are not necessarily guided tours but just touring in general. 10 If you are touring Chicago, do not wear your Yankee baseball cap. If you do, at best people will believe you have just been […]
Views of the Neighborhood – Crochet Art
Today’s view of the neighborhood is very unusual. Every year during the holidays an unknown person decorates the bollards that serve to keep cars away from certain parts of the beach. These decorations are hand crochets, and each one is unique. What is surprising is one day they are not there and the next they […]
Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Different Kind of Prompt
It is Stream of Consciousness Saturday time again. This weeks prompt is a little different. Linda Hill asked us to sit down at our writing place and pick up the nearest book, newspaper, note, or anything with words and choose the sixth, seventh and eighth word on the page and that is the prompt.
