Half-way Monday

Posted on June 15, 2020 by Silver James

Sadly, this is very true. I’m giving blood to the “vampires” around noon so I don’t get my normal quota of the caffeine stuffs this morning. Sadly, I haven’t given blood in years and years. I’m doing it now because … Continue reading →

Posted on June 10, 2020 by Silver James

I won’t DENY that writing has been tough for awhile. And I’m probably in DENIAL about getting as many books written this year as I’d like, but hey, I can dream right? In the meantime, Twitter’s #1lineWed prompt has to … Continue reading →

Second Monday and Second Breakfast

Posted on June 8, 2020 by Silver James

I’ve always thought the Hobbits had it right! We should all enjoy “second breakfast.” Of course, I’d put on more than the 10 pounds I’ve gained back since this whole isolation things started, so maybe I’ll just stick with second … Continue reading →

Wednesday Words: Never Forget

Posted on June 3, 2020 by Silver James

Given current events, today’s #1lineWed theme of **REMEMBRANCE, MEMORIAL, HONOR** seems a bit ironic because the dead I choose to honor and remember? Well…anyway. I’m still angry so I’m redirecting it. The idea came to me Monday night as I … Continue reading →

It’s a new month. A new week. And Monday. We’re halfway through 2020, though it seems like it should be 2022 by now! There was a weekend. The world turned crazy. I can’t even go there. Or maybe I should … Continue reading →

Memorial Monday

Posted on May 25, 2020 by Silver James

It’s Memorial Day. Considering the crazysauce that is most people’s life these days, celebrations will be small. I’m not sure that’s a bad thing. Memorial Day isn’at about sales or cookouts or hanging at the beach. It’s about remembering and … Continue reading →

Y’all may–or not–know that Blake Shelton was the inspiration for Deacon Tate, the hero of the THE COWBOY’S CHRISTMAS PROPOSITION. Well, Deke’s baby brother Dillon is likely to get the next book and when I heard this song, I knew … Continue reading →

Another Hump Day, another word prompt from Twitter’s #1LineWed. Today, it’s all about **FLIGHT**. Today’s snippet comes courtesy of a flash fiction challenge from ages ago. The prompt was “car trouble” and this is what ensued. Yes, it will eventually … Continue reading →
