reposted, because very few of you read it. and it was fun. I’m not psychic. Nobody is. However, that doesn’t mean it’s not fun to be a psychic. This is about my experience working for the Psychic Hotline. Those of you who are psychic, you somehow probably already know, so don’t bother reading. The rest…
Every Wednesday Madison Woods posts a picture prompt to challenge writers to create a 100-word story or poem or anything that works for you. then post your work on your blog. additionally, on friday, you go back to her site and post a link to your blog entry in the comments on her Friday Fictioneers post.

Reposted, because you never saw it. Pretend you’re a business owner. What’s your job? Make money. How do you make money? Spending less than you bring in. The less you spend, the more you make. Duh. What are your biggest expenditures? Your location, your supplies, and your people. If you go cheap on location, you…
(reposted, and less relevant because the show has new characters than when this was written, but you still haven’t read it, so deal with it.) I don’t watch much television, maybe only three shows: some sports, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, and I occasionally watch House, but only because someone else is watching it and I’m…

Meanwhile, get on with your…

If you’re going to hate someone (because “dislike” is too politically correct) it’s only fair to make sure they know exactly why you hate them. People of WordPress – consider this a fair warning. You messed up my vacation. Also, this post took a lot longer to write than I expected. Every summer for the…
Two of the most controversial and never-endingly (?) discussed items in the last 50 years can each be summed up with three letters. UFO and JFK. Stephen King has written about many things, and although I haven’t read anything he may have written about UFO’s, he did manage to take a crack (no pun intended)…
i was on my way home from home depot and saw the late afternoon sun backlighting the flag through the frame of the trees. i spun a u-turn, then another, then got this while hoping nobody came out of the house and chased me away.
(re-posted from about a year ago – because you never read it. Item G of a 5-part series Of course you can’t judge a book by its cover, but it’s okay to pick one because of it. When I saw the cover for The Shack, by William P. Young, I thought three things. First, I said,…
