When ideas come tapping us on the shoulder, is it our responsibility to express ourselves? I say yes… just grab your sketchbook.

The other day, I did a rewarding interview with Elaine M. Grohman for her show on Empower Radio, Earth Wisdom Circles. We laughed and chatted, covering diverse topics such

Owner: Hello, boy, I'm back!

Dog: Yes, so you are. Where have you been? It's been hours and hours. Did you bring me any biscuits?

I’ve decided to try writing a blog here—since I’m getting nowhere with the book I’ve been working on. This entry is my backstory—it’s on my website as the first half of “The Backstory”—and I’ve written it at least partly to remind myself of all the books I’ve written—yes, I have managed to pull boo Read more of this blog post »

Recent goings on.

Hello. It’s February 2021. As I type this the rain is beating on the conservatory roof. Nearly all the paths around where I live are thick mud. Other words for mud, incidentally, include slobber, slabber, slutch, and lutulence, according to the Oxford English Dictionary.

A girl with a fear of the ocean
Wanted nothing to do with its motion
All she longed for was space
Until she found her place
When she learned how to trust her emotions

The drawing was not just like an exact image. Yet the face of a man, along with clothing shown near the face that was not at all familiar, reminded Ebert, Roger, and Dan still very much that Mr. Endemort they had seen, individually, but not then by that name. The head hair and the facial hair were a Read more of this blog post »

Through the Roof by Natasha West

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


At last eight out of five stars for this one ;)

This is a very refreshing and uplifting book, especially at a time, when mainstream media scribblers, who have the insolence to call themselves journalists, and dimwit politicians worldwide insi Read more of this blog post »

Tapping quick adavus with his feet, shaping delicate mudras with his hands, and showing expressive bhavas with his eyes—everything about bharatanatyam filed his heart with joy.

Jesus set the standard for love. But Jesus was God in human form. How is any human supposed to live by that standard of love? The Lord didn't just leave us to stumble around in our sins. He actually gave us the power to leave behind any sin, including sexual sin, like porn.

Մենք, երբեք, չենք հայտնվում այնտեղ, որտեղ չպետք է լինենք, ու չնայած հաճախ չենք հասկանում ինչու, բայց տիեզերական այս ճշմարտությունը միակ մխիթարանքն է՝ կյանքում այսքան շատ կեղտում հայտնվելու …

I'm blogging for the first time. Because the Publishing World has changed.
