Thursday Thoughts: Universal Click

Posted on August 19, 2021 by Silver James

This struck me for two reasons. Well, probably more, but two right off the top of my head. One, it’s a nice message to get and hang onto in dark times. Two, isn’t this the way a lot of romances … Continue reading →

Wednesday Words: Middle Ground

Posted on August 18, 2021 by Silver James

Today’s #1lineWed theme is appropriate. It’s Wednesday. The middle of a normal work week. Of course, writers wouldn’t know about anything remotely resembling a normal work week. Sort of like anyone working retail! Anyway, it’s Hump Day and the theme … Continue reading →

Thursday Thoughts: Universal Buttons

Posted on August 12, 2021 by Silver James

The world is pretty crazy. I cringe when I walk into a room with a TV tuned to the news. I can’t look at any of my social media feeds–which isn’t fair to the people I care about–but it’s self-preservation … Continue reading →

Posted on July 29, 2021 by Silver James

I used to dream a lot. Vivid dreams. And I usually remembered them when I awoke the next morning. Often, those dreams became ideas for stories. Then I sort of stopped dreaming. I’m not sure when exactly. It’s just…I woke … Continue reading →

Wednesday Words: Bleeding Heart

Posted on July 28, 2021 by Silver James

The #1lineWed theme is **BLEED**. Considering the current plot point in the Mob Wolves WIP, it was a natural and gave me some awesome inspiration. I’m in Chapter 3 and the O’Hara faction is moving to…consolidate, let’s say, the Mob … Continue reading →
