Sunday morning, the Pope shocked the Catholic Church by allowing nancy pelosi back into the House of God to receive Communion. Law Enforcement will undoubtedly check his personal bank accounts following what can only be described as a sign of the apocalypse. Ms. pelosi, a.k.a. Alligator Face, smiled with delight as she tried to bite … Continue reading Magical Headline: Nancy Pelosi Struck & Killed By Sewage Truck Following Communion

I finished high school more than 30 years ago. I remember having English classes during the first and fourth periods. I failed English classes because I rarely attended English classes. I rarely participated in English Class because I either didn't show up for school until lunchtime, or I left after lunch and didn't return to … Continue reading My Thoughts This Morning [All Things Are Possible]
Not an excerpt. Simply a conversation between two characters from my Novel. After a quiet dinner, Soloman and Shelby walked the path to the treeline and back, where they dropped into the loveseat on the porch. Only one hour past sunset, the temperature had already dropped by nearly twenty degrees. Soloman leaned over and kissed … Continue reading The Tomato Plant [Re-post]

My second Novel, and Part II in the series I'm publishing. Funny thing, Book I has not hit the shelves yet, and I'm already heavily invested in the … Continue reading I Have Missed All of You
This excerpt is character flashback, and rather vague because of this. I wrote and added it today. Thought it would be cool to post [kinda rough]. It's less than 700 words in length. I still refuse to give away the character's name though, so I used the name John. **Flashback / The House** [John] had … Continue reading Novel Excerpts [character flashback]
I realized something this evening. I write seven days a week . . . no matter what . . . no matter what. I have this blog, small column, and I've been working on a novel(s) for a year; I don't see writing as work. I'll never see writing as work. Here's my analogy.

Another highly productive weekend. My last word count [80k]. The journey continues as I prepare to write the last two chapters [13 & 14].

I'm feeling good about Book #1 of the series coming in at 100k words, and still have … Continue reading Another highly productive weekend. My last word count [80k].
