Whatever happened to Hello or Hi? The standard word used now for a greeting is Hey! It has become universal, at least in the little part of the world that lets me inhabit it. A doc walks by me in the hall way and just says “Hey”. Then he doesn’t look up from his cell phone. I respond by saying, “Dave”. Drives me nuts a little, this “Hey” thing, and initially I rebelled against the lazy word, but Read More

(You will sing along, all comrades know famous melody from America!) Verse 1 On a dark tundra highway, cool wind in his hairs Warm smell of police state, rising up through the air. Up ahead in the distance, he saw a shimmering light. His head grew larger and he spied new land. He had to stop for the night. There he stood in the doorway. He knew they wouldn’t tell. And he think to himself More land is heaven, I n Read More

But aren’t you proud that I posted a picture with this piece of out of this world, stunning, adjective &# Read More

But then, if the gorgeous red I’m drinking is so effective in making my fingers fly on the keyboard, why is my mind drawing a blank? I’ve only enjoyed half a glass. So far. Sure, I’ve written about what inspires my writing, you know – doodling in church, writing on cocktail napkins at the bar, and trying to remember my stimulating ideas while swimming laps. But maybe all of this is wrong. It’s the red win Read More

To Love With Hate

Finally, my debut novel is going to be published! Not sure the exact date, but my guess is sometime in May, 2014. The process has been long, frustrating and certainly a learning experience for me. But I’m happy with the story, and it is told the way it should be told. The art department at the publisher showed me the proofs of the paper back cover and it is impressive, and certainly eye catching. I’ll k Read More
