Thursday Thoughts: Universal Spark
January 2, 2025. Wow. Weren’t we supposed to have flying cars by now? And we’ve managed to avoid a repeat of Orwell’s “1984” so that’s all good. It’s a new year and I’m sensing a change in the emotional weather … Continue reading

Tuesday Tidbits: NYE
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

Thursday Thoughts: Universal Wake-up Call

Wednesday Words: All Together Now
Guess what?!? It’s Wedneday and I have new words that are being added to MOONSTRUCK: RETRIBUTION. Sadly, I didn’t “win” anything in last week’s Thursday Threads flashfiction challenge but that’s okay. That’s not why I participate. I do it because … Continue reading
