On being a writer

Thursday Thoughts…Uhm…

Posted on January 9, 2025 by Silver James

Yes. I’m late. And no, it isn’t because I forgot. Though I forget a lot of things. I mean, I do have ADWB (Attention Deficit Writer’s Brain–ooh look, a squirrel!) but that’s not what happened. A squirrel I mean. Okay, … Continue reading →

Wednesday Words: But Soft, What Light

Posted on January 8, 2025 by Silver James

Tuesday Tidbits: NYE

Posted on December 31, 2024 by Silver James

I’ve never been one for big crowds, loud music, and the nonsense that can accompany both. Yes, I did hit the dance clubs when I was younger–both disco and western. I’m not afraid to admit it. And yes, I did–and … Continue reading →
