Connection Issues
Internet Down All Day… Actually it went down when I was writing my blog last night, so I used my hotspot on my phone to finish. In six years in this town, our internet service has been down for maybe an hour four or five times over the years. Stunning service and reliability, so suddenly this happening was really strange. And Cox was texting us every hour or so with updates. Stunningly organized on their part. We discovered after we got back from the Aces game (wow are they having issues at the moment) that a hub for Cox had a fire late last night. They got back up all…

Something Big!
Trying to Figure Out What Big Thing to Do! I am in my 50th year since selling my first two short stories. And this fall I turn 74 and I would really like to challenge myself in that year before I turn 75. It has been a hard few years for me and I want to come out of them screaming forward. (grin) I keep coming up with all sorts of really fun (for me) ideas. And really crazy. I mean really, really off the beam when it comes to writing and publishing. Asimov is known for doing a lot of books in his lifetime. A vast number of them…

Last Day to Join Kris’s Summer Challenge…
Her Challenge Will Be Closed off Late Tonight… This challenge was something Kris really wanted to do to keep herself focused for at least a few hours a day on writing instead of all the business stuff. It worked for her in May and she wanted to extend it through the summer. Every day you get a letter from Kris about her day and her writing. Eye-opening and don’t expect her to ever do this again after this summer. So today is the last day to jump in. Might just be the best thing you can do for your writing for the summer. And for me right now, I have…

What Is A Weekend?
A Great Question That Applies to Professional Writers… Kris and I honestly at times don’t know what day of the week it is. For example, tonight, on the way home from the Aces’s game, we ran into a bunch of traffic right near the Art’s District near where we live. Neither one of us could figure out what was going on until finally Kris said, “Oh, it’s first Friday.” First Friday of every month there is a massive arts’ fair in the downtown area. Even though earlier we had done a normal Friday lunch with writers and I had done a webinar that is always late Friday, neither of our…
