Choosing Forks
If Goodreads had images associated with these web log posts, I would find one of a banquet place setting and crop the left side. However, this has nothing to do with food.
Part of the basis for the title is that the month began with its only mark Joseph "young" web log post, #441: The Song "Fork in the Road" . Just yesterday I received a message from a musician complimenting me on it, which is a bit embarrassing since it is the last song on the shortlist considered for inclusion in a demo, but it was at one time the crowd pleaser of the band The Last Psalm, and the drummer of that band was thrilled to hear it again.
The first of the month also saw the publication of Faith in Play #52: Pirates , considering the lessons in the archetype of those who plunder. Today, two weeks later, the Christian Gamers Guild has also published RPG-ology #52: Edison , republishing a Game Ideas Unlimited article about the balance between ideas and effort in creativity.
The Guild also sponsors the Bible study, which has continued with John 18:15 through 25, and two more Musings posts, Unworthy about dealing with feelings of unworthiness, and Loving which sparked some discussion about how God sometimes uses us to express His love to others.
The present novel In Verse Proportion also had the appearance of chapter 65 on the first of the month, featuring Bob Slade, and another today, chapter 71, featuring Derek Brown, with intermittent chapters for both of them and for Joe Kondor.
A few years back I started a series of images on my Pinterest account entitled Gazebos in the Wild; it's something of an inside joke among gamers. It was not well received, and I gave up with images unposted. However, I decided this month to begin posting them, from the beginning, on my Instagram account, mostly because I still haven't figured out what to post there. They have gotten some positive response there.
I am still working on the Corpoises novel, although my publisher is less enthused than he was. On the positive side, he has shown an interest in republishing my decade-old hard-to-find out-of-print book Do You Trust Me?, as he is shifting his emphasis to non-fiction, which has been doing better for him. That will probably appear here in the not too distant future.
Behind the scenes I am frantically converting the next Multiverser novel, Con Verse Lea, from a Word document to individual HTML chapters for serialized publication. This also entails doing a final major edit, culling information for support site character papers, and creating the behind-the-writings web log posts which will be launched at intervals once publication begins. So more is coming; stay with me.
And I almost forgot to mention that you can keep current on what's being published and written, and what else is happening, by following my web log at Patreon, whether or not you become a patron. Perhaps I'll see you there.

The Ides of Mark
Goodreads was nagging me, as a Goodreads author, to start another web log--I say another, because I already have the mark Joseph "young" web log http://www.mjyoung.net/weblog/ where I dabble eclectica
