Posted on January 19, 2018 by Silver James

Friday Sinema: Bohemian Soaring

Tuesday was International Kite Day. This is too cool not to share today. It gives the phrase, “Go fly a kite!” whole new meaning. Enjoy! And have a great weekend. 🙂

Thursday Thoughts: Universal Lost and Found

Posted on January 11, 2018 by Silver James

Regular readers have heard me explain my writing process before. I’m a puzzler. I often use prompts, get wild hairs, get hit by a lightning bolt of inspiration, and other craziness. I haven’t written a book in linear fashion, ie. … Continue reading →

Wednesday Words: Get Off of My Lawn

Posted on January 10, 2018 by Silver James

Since last week’s #1lineWed theme was *OLD*, I figured this week’s theme should be **YOUNG**. You know, for reasons! 😉 Anyway, it also gave me an idea of how to start the new WIP. At the moment, the working title … Continue reading →

Tuesday Treats: Asian Chicken ‘N Noodles

Posted on January 9, 2018 by Silver James

Sometimes, I don’t have time. Sometimes, not only do I not have time, I don’t have the energy, wherewithal, or motivation to either go out, go grab fast food, or put together a “real” meal. And frozen dinners are not … Continue reading →

Second Monday

Posted on January 8, 2018 by Silver James

So…I sort of ignored the New Year last week. In fact, I pretty ignored the world from between Christmas and a day or two after New Year’s because…sick! This is like the 3rd year a row that I’ve been sick … Continue reading →
