Not this post. Yesterday’s post was the 500th post I have been credited with making on my blog. That’s like writing a book, which I found to be one of the hardest things I ever did in my life. Since my posts average around 500 words each, I have written 250,000 and I am stillContinue reading “Mr. 500”

Branding
Don’t ask me how I do it. Confidence. Anyway, I move out here after spending the better part of three years in a hospital bed or rehab bed or my own bed and LazyBoy recliner. They were not easy. Least of all on my wife. But I felt great after two shows in two daysContinue reading “Branding”
I’m Baaack
I am getting ready to leave for my gig. I decided to open with Whiskey Bent and Hellbound to show my country chops right off the bat. Talk to you later. In the meantime, here are the entries (preface and short-story) for the letter N and the emotion is needy. This will be my lastContinue reading “I’m Baaack”
Love is Blind
Without a lot of fanfare, here is a story I wrote when I was working in a corporate cubicle: Another Love Story Day One It was a cool October morning and I parked, grabbed my lunchbox, and headed toward good ‘ol Building 66. As I approached the entrance, a blue Toyota came bouncing offContinue reading “Love is Blind”
Info Overload

See how I went from maddpup to maddogg. The setting is England and a lovely, rare summer that graced us.Continue reading “Innocence”
Beautiful Day
They are all beautiful, but today was hell-good on the weather front. 72 degrees. Sunny. Where was I? The golf course is where I should have been, but I was laid up again with my damn stump and the sore that is posing a problem with me walking. Heading in to my prosthetist tomorrow. HopefullyContinue reading “Beautiful Day”
Scaredy Cat
Don’t be afraid to be afraid. People can talk shit all they want, but everyone fears something. My fears are way unreasonable and usually out of the realm of possibility, at least that’s what Karen says. I am afraid of being eaten alive by a wild animal. I lived a couple years in the mountainsContinue reading “Scaredy Cat”
I Promised and I Delivered
When I set about writing my first book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s! I started reading every short story I could get my hands on. I was looking to find the average amount of pages it took to tell a great story. I originally put over 30 stories into under 100 pages. Each story willContinue reading “I Promised and I Delivered”
Excerpt From my Book
In my compendium of short and short-short stories, EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s, I pick different selections which are a totally new genre in that my stories elicit maximum emotional impact using an economy of words. One example is the very first story in the book titled My Furry Friend. My Furry Friend HeContinue reading “Excerpt From my Book”
