Writer’s Desk
And hello again, dreamers. I know I normally post my Writer's Desk on Sunday evenings, but needless to say I found myself a mite distracted last night. All is good, the storm is past and my sister checked in safe, so it's back to work. And there's plenty to do this week. Wide Horizon My … Continue reading Writer’s Desk
Short Story Sunday
Hello, dreamers. Sorry this is so late. I've been somewhat preoccupied by news of Hurricane Irma, as my sister lives in Orlando.

So, here's what went on in the junk drawer today... Ashes At long last, this week I was able to finish a pivotal section in this unique story. … Continue reading The Junk Drawer
The Pale Blue Dot
In 1990, as the Voyager 1 probe was speeding out of our solar system, it turned its cameras to the rear. Looking back, as though taking one last, fleeting glance back at its old home, it snapped a single image. That image is above. Requested by Dr. Carl Sagan, the image is one of Earth, our home … Continue reading The Pale Blue Dot
