Friday Sinema: Go West!
This has become one of my favorite TV/movie themes. I’ll admit that I’ve only watched the premier of the series and one or two episodes more of the first season. I went all, “Damn and whoah!” And life happened. Streaming … Continue reading
Thursday Thoughts: Universal Can Do
There are times, as a writer–and probably as a “normal” person too–when your get up and go got up and went. The words don’t want to come. The deadline don’t mean nuthin’. And you really can’t conjure up a plot, … Continue reading

Wednesday Words: Gonna Need That
With CROSSFIRE in the revision and editing stage (or so close as to be the same thing) last week, I got to play with the Boston Wolves for the #ThursdayThread prompt of **”You’re going to need that.” The best part … Continue reading

Madcap Monday
It’s Monday once again. Sadly, July has one more Monday on the calendar. Ya know, it’s a bad cosmic joke when there are five Mondays in a month. Not fair. If I thought it would do any good, I’d grab … Continue reading
Friday Sinema: Jazz Hands

Wednesday Words: I’ll Drink to That

Monday in the Middle
Poor Monday. Even us semi-retired, work-from-home types tend to stigmatize the day. It’s not Monday’s fault. And those that don’t work M-F/9-5 jobs have way different time tables. I used to work shifts–24 on, 48 off. And then I worked … Continue reading
