A Nook and Cranny Story –Three – A Brick

This is actually the second shot at writing this chapter, I shelved the first.  I learned a couple of things.  I really enjoy writing, as I have written this chapter completely on my vacation.  Some of it was in the car on the way to Centralia, some was written in a cafe in Seattle (thanks [...]

Nooks and Crannies – A Goal to Finish the Story

I have been working a little more on the continuing “Nooks and Crannies” story.  I have quite a few ideas and I have enjoyed writing what I have of it, but the process is scary. “How so?” you ask.

So how is what different? – Tales of the blog: How to make a blog writer blush in one easy lesson.

I was going to look back on my post and perhaps take a view of how my writing has changed because of this or that in this post.  First, I want to tell you about a feature I mentioned a ways back that I had added to this blog as a curiosity back when I [...]

More Photos… A Visual Meditation

Here are some more photos from my recent venture with my new camera.  Trying to get a feel for a new one is always a challenge for me.  It has been a while since I have actually not hurried through picture taking, it is a challenge to find the quiet focus to get the images [...]
