2023-09-06 The Pub Update…
No no… this is not a top 10 list of local pubs with good atmosphere and great cheeseburgers (though that would also be the bomb). THIS… is the never-asked-for update on my personal journey to trick reputable publishers into including my poetry in the print or virtual pages of their esteemed magazines and journals. This…

2023-08-30 Procrastination is the Key to Success
Just kidding. But doesn’t that title pop?! Doesn’t it scream “click me” without actually screaming? Isn’t it also a prime example of the most despised internet bait and switch of all time?

2023-06-14 Winning the Crown of the Saltiest Kingdom of All

It’s the middle of the month. I’m still lamenting being home from our big vacation and trying to keep things well balanced. There’s a let down, you know, when something wonderful is over and the best way to combat that is planning the next vacation. 😂 I’m thinking of several actually and daydreaming is nice. …

2022-12-31 But First…
I’m in Nebraska City trying to draw up water from the well of color. I’m drawn in too many different directions to see the end of anything. Yet the end draws near anyhow. It’s December 31st and the last day of the year. Not significant for anything except a smoldering desire to reflect back on…
