Final Flight and Win-A-Kindle
I've finally had to admit it. I'm over-committed. I never planned to spam my blog followers with daily ramblings. Twice or thrice a month would suffice. But I'm down to one post a month. So I changed the tagline in my posts to "An occasional blog". Truth is good. (Unless, of course, you're a …

Beyond Beginnings: Sequels
A Good Year End In November 2016 I became a published novel author, building on my years as a short story writer. Where do you go from there? You write the sequel.
