REMAKES Blog Fest: The Music

Hosted by Alex J. Cavanaugh and Heather M. Gardner. Remakes – most of them suck. Now and then, one comes along that is as good as, if not better, than the original. And after all of the bad ones we’ve endured, we want to know about some good ones. On November 13, 2017, blog about your favorite remake: movie (or television show into movie and vice versa), song, or book – or all three! Post a

The History of "In Flanders Fields"

"In Flanders Fields" is a famous poem lamenting soldiers lost in World War I, but has since come to be associated with Remembrance Day (also known as Armistice Day or Veterans Day), and is commonly read at services across Canada on November 11. It was written by Major John McCrae, a Canadian military doctor and artillery commander during the Great War, and Canadians have latched onto it hard. I

I Can't Believe I Pulled It Off (#IWSG November 2017)

I did it! It took over two years, but I finally did it! I made it to the top 100 of the Insecure Writers Support Group LinkyTools list! Read it and weep, baby. 99. Just like The Great One. I attribute this victory to ingenuity, creativity, pacts made with Satan brushing against Charlie Sheen once. And never missing more than one monthly post in a row. Seriously though, I do have a

Trick or Treat for Books (2017 Edition)

It's that time again! The weather is changing, the grocery store aisles are crammed with boxes of individually-packaged candy, and kids are spending more time at school discussing their Halloween costumes than their math lessons. That last one doesn't matter because the education system is gone to crap, anyway. What the hell kind of sorcery is this? In what has become a yearly tradition

I'll Get Back to the Keyboard Eventually (#IWSG October 2017)

Holy shit! I've moved up to 102 on the IWSG list! I've nearly cracked the top 100! That's not really an accomplishment worth noting, but I've got to take what I can get. I'm also well over 6000 followers on Twitter! People like me, right? I need to celebrate whatever I can. It's not like I got any writing done. I didn't even do that much. It's been a rough (rough) year for my family, and
