“Get Your Program Together!”

Posted on September 8, 2013 by main

It was Brevard, North Carolina, sometime in the 70’s. I won’t tell you exactly what part of that decade otherwise you’ll peg my tender age. I saved up enough money doing paper routes and mowing lawns to become an attendee of the Blue Ridge Trails running camp, designed for High School distance runners who hoped to improve their performance and learn from some of the greats in the field at the Read More

Writing Inspiration Tips

Posted on August 27, 2013 by main

I like to write. Always have. I don’t have much time to write, and when I do, I try to finish editing and polishing my first novel, To Love With Hate which is best categorized as psychological suspense, although some experts feel it may own a genre its own genre. As you know, however, I now have a blog so that I can contribute small vignettes to introduce myself to the reading market f Read More

Beach Ladies in the Land That Time Forgot

Posted on August 24, 2013 by main

If you’ve already spent a precious 22 seconds reading the “About SRCarson” section of my blog, you’ll already remember that I grew up in Southern California fantasyland. Not to belabor the point, but I ate, drank and slept surfing when I was a young man: Malibu, Huntington Beach and Seal beaches got my trunks wet the most often. So I can imagine that it comes as a surprise to you that I’m wr Read More

Another excerpt from “To Love with Hate”

Posted on August 18, 2013 by main

The cruise ship boarded at the Port of Los Angeles, and the next two full days would be at sea until the first scheduled port of call, Puerto Vallarta. Katherine was so hard to convince to travel without the kids, but he loved to travel and immerse himself in local culture and history. In his book, Europe was higher on his list of fun destinations than the Mexican Riviera, but the cruise was certainly Read More

Bring Back Ellen

Posted on August 8, 2013 by main

It was good while it lasted I guess. I went to ride up to the ninth floor with Ellen today, but she wasn’t available. I just finished a surgery and I sure needed her – that soothing voice, relaxing non – elevator music and of course skillful hands to massage my tense shoulder muscles. Yellow caution tape draped in an X fashion across her always welcoming door, and a sign that read “un Read More

Love my Elevator and She Loves Me

Posted on August 1, 2013 by main

Thankfully using elevators is an uneventful occurrence for those of who travel between floors in large buildings. When it becomes an eventful occurrence, it can be a huge stress of course and people in general have their guards up while traveling in these necessary conveyances. Something interesting happened to me in the elevator today. It wasn’t tra Read More

Word vomit

Posted on August 1, 2013 by main

Ok, a couple things bothered me today, and they had nothing to do with patients smoking and drinking too much and expecting me to cure them from their self –induced destruction with a pill or with surgery. No, au contraire. It had to do with stupid words health care professionals use in charts and it bugs me enough to bloviate about it. Word # Read More

I Felt The Grip of Death

Posted on July 21, 2013 by main

Death’s grip started with excruciating pain, but then, eventually faded into peaceful bliss. I didn’t have time to say goodbye to anyone because death would not wait for my wishes. I wasn’t ready, but it didn’t matter; it was happening no matter what. Death came to me, ready or not. I touched him and felt the terrible burn, but at the same time, enjoyed the blissful wave of peace wit Read More
