While I was working on the sequel to Misfit McCabe yesterday, I decided that the mp3 player and a pair of headphones may quite possibly be the writer’s best friend. Pop the headphones in, turn the music on and let the story flow. The music helps to cut down on the interruption factor. So, when Denny starts to read me … Read More

It’s Been Too Long
I can’t believe I finally got my paws on the laptop again. I’d better not waste any time, but get right into it. I hope everyone had a nice holiday. We had a good one, although, I do have to say, that I didn’t get the one thing I really wanted. In fact, I for it with all of my … Read More
Borders on the Slippery Slope
A local author walked into a bookstore. . . sounds like the beginning of a joke, doesn’t it. Well, what followed was a joke, but not in the least amusing for anyone involved. In our current economic times, good customer service is increasingly important to help maintain the customer base. As a consumer, I’m making my purchases much more cautiously … Read More
WITW is MMC? – Woodinville, WA
I have fond memories of Woodinville. I was actually in Washington on business, I forget exactly what the purpose was, but I was visiting the office that my company had in Bothell before heading up to our Vancouver office. Since there was a weekend in between, I was able to attend the Annual Fool’s Day Parade, also known as the … Read More
2008 in Review
I’m not really a believer in resolutions. The word resolution to me is like the phrase, “I’ll try.” When someone says, “I’ll try,” what they really mean is “don’t hold your breath.” It’s like a built in excuse for failure. With “I’ll try”, if I succeed, then I’m the hero, if I fail, well, I never promised anything. A resolution … Read More

WITW is MMC? – El Paso, TX
Actually, Book 7, the Pink line, arrived in El Paso quite some time ago, around the same time as the Brown and Teal lines, but I forgot to post its arrival, mainly because it has been so quiet I think it might be doing a little sightseeing before settling down to be read. To give you a visual of something … Read More
Happy Thanksgiving
Just a quick little post to wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a very special time because it allows us all the opportunity to review our lives and realize all of the wonderful things which we have been given.

Elsa – the St. Bernard
Ok, I thought I was done with Elsa stories, but she obviously likes my writing little stories about her. Last weekend Gryphon and I noticed that Elsa was drooling a little bit. Mama noticed too, but she thought it was that Elsa was sleeping so hard she drooled a little bit on the pillow she was laying on. Well, that … Read More
