A few minutes of stalling would not break her. She had the strength to stand there and love him right up to the moment he would possibly reveal that this was no longer in her best interest. He did not expect histrionics if his revelation was disappointing. She would not give him the satisfaction, would remain stoic until showing him the door. Whatever happened once he was on the other side would be privileged information. - From Matters of Convenience http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2013/12/...

There are 2 sides to every coin and at least that many to every story, even during Banned Books Week which is a topic I feel mostly one sided about. So it feels appropriate to remind you of this book that WASN'T banned and the blog post I wrote on it - http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2007/07/...
Say NO to book banning and book altering. Let readers judge an author's intent for themselves. http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2011/01/...

Thought I'd remind you that I have an author page on Facebook. Stop by and check it out - https://www.facebook.com/PatchesOfGrey
Check out THE PICK UP at A Line A Day - http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2013/05/... Posts do feed to my GoodReads profile page but the formatting was messed up in the transfer so I recommend reading this short story at my blog rather than here.
Now that the serialization of FEEDING THE SQUIRRELS at A Line A Day has been completed, those who haven't already read it can enjoy my novella at a pace of their choosing. No need to wait a few days between chapters. Just start at the beginning http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2013/02/... and keep going until reaching The End: http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2013/04/...
My Amazon profile page. Blog posts feed directly to it so Amazon is yet another place where FEEDING THE SQUIRRELS can be followed - http://www.amazon.com/Roy-L.-Pickerin...
Attn. Kindle readers - If you do most of your reading on Amazon's device/App these days, you'll find a "Send to Kindle" button at the bottom of each chapter of Feeding the Squirrels. So you can either linger at A Line A Day (no coffee/wine served so bring your own), follow along here at GoodReads where my blog posts also appear, or else send each installment of my novella straight to your favorite reading platform.http://lineaday.blogspot.com
Happy Easter! Chapter Ten of FEEDING THE SQUIRRELS is now live - http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2013/03/...
FEEDING THE SQUIRRELS: A Novella Serialized (Chapter One: Michelle) http://lineaday.blogspot.com/2013/03/...
