Christmas in July: Fun Songs

Saturday, July 13, 2024 Welcome back to Christmas in July!  While not exactly sad, many “winter holiday” songs are serious.  My question to you is this:  “What’s your favorite fun or humorous Santa song?“ One of mine is “Santa Baby” as performed by Eartha Kitt.  She was also my favorite Catwoman on the original Batman TV … More Christmas in July: Fun Songs

Wednesday Writing: Food in Stories

Wednesday, July 10, 2024 Welcome, everyone.  It’s been a while since I did a writing process post, so let’s get cooking!  (I couldn’t resist the pun.) Adding food to the story can help to bring a story to life in many ways.  If a character has a favorite food, they’re more relatable.  For instance, my … More Wednesday Writing: Food in Stories

A Birthday Thankyou — from Me

Saturday, June 29, 2024  I rarely mention my birthday, even to the closest friends. Mine is not today, but it does fall between now and when I would normally publish another blog post.  It’s also a milestone birthday. Lord of the Rings fans will know that it’s a Hobbit birthday tradition to give gifts to … More A Birthday Thankyou — from Me

Thank you, Dan — from the Delta Pearl

Sunday, June 23, 2024  All aboard! After one month, the “launch period” for my duology is over. It was one month ago when the book versions of The Delta Pearl finally got back on the river. However, the story is older than that. For one year in 2016 I wrote the original story.  Then it … More Thank you, Dan — from the Delta Pearl

Happy Summer & More on Christmas in July

Saturday, June 22, 2024 Recently I mentioned hosting a Christmas in July blog hop in celebration of my friends in the Southern Hemisphere.  What got me interested in a celebration that might seem obscure to most of you? Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. Before I saw the “Murder Under the Mistletoe” episode, where Phryne and company … More Happy Summer & More on Christmas in July

Check-in and the Good the Bad & the Ugly

Sunday, June 16, 2024 Check-in Because of some comments I’ve made to a few people over the past week or two, that I had an extremely difficult task coming up (which was on Friday) I’ve made this unplanned post.  I’m just checking in, on the outside chance that anyone was concerned.  All’s well.
