    By wildone

    First thing first, I really need anyone who is thinking to enter our yearly Anthology, please see Val's Thursday blog and if you fingers haven't started typing, get them going! As you read this, I am indisposed. Read into that what you want . But I'm up by a lake in the mountains looking at the colours change for fall.  So next week in the northern hemisphere, we flip into fall, autumn, whatever you like to call it. Down under the equator, they are about to hit spring   What is y

Csr Book Club Selection: Bonds Unbroken By Cia

Wow, last month of 2013! This month our book club selection is one of my stories. Thank you Renee, Mann, Jo Ann. I hope you enjoy this story. It is part of a contemporary paranormal series that can each be read alone, but they are interconnected so they read the best in order. So, this month you can read the first, and shortest, of my Carthera Takeover Tales, which is handy with the holiday and all. Bonds Unbroken By Cia   Word Count: 37,760   Description: The Carthera are a

World Aids Day

Today is December 1st and it is World Aids Day.   AIDS   Yeah I grew up in the time that terrible thing reared its ugly head and made everyone afraid. AIDS was a death sentence when I was a teenager. There wasn't a chance of survival. It was just a wasting death.   1988 when I was in school there was still so much that wasn't known. People thought it could be passed by sharing needles, drinking cups, spit, and you name it. That made everyone suspect. Eventually it was known to be passed du

Diamonds

Sonnet No. 120 [November 19th, 2013 – 9:14 am]   Before the Supreme Court stood – Edie Windsor – On her breast, her wife's diamond 'ring' still blazed, Forty-six years after Edie was first dazed That the woman she loved was proposing to her. A private woman, the press she would endure To end bigotry, and all were amazed, Telling a great love story, she was not fazed, For it was time for justice to transfer. Love endures, thus diamonds are the symbol – Tough too, like Edie and

Oh dyer of mine, Dear Dyer of mine, Please reveal your secrets divine, What concoction have you created dear, Of your colors and godforsaken water! My heart’s all blue in love so profound, My cloak’s soaked in saffron unbound…     How am I to complain of my tale? I like a stubborn asked you to color my veil, Oh! Your colors penetrated my fabric, insane, Deep within my heart ‘n soul everything’s dyed of your stain, Color my heart away, Oh this feelin’…     Dyer, Are you

My Friend Stephen

In college, I had a friend named Stephen R. I actually had a lot of friends named Stephen, but he was honestly my favorite one. We met one afternoon in Kent Dining Hall at the University of Delaware at the beginning of the 2007-2008 school year. I was eating lunch, and this tall, lanky blond kid who was pale as fuck asked if he could eat lunch with me. We ate lunch, then we hung out in his room. Stephen had this small single at the top of Sussex/Squire Hall. We got high, then spent the day walki

My Friend Is In A Coma, Part II

The memorials have already started on Steve's Facebook page. My friend Ian told me that Steve was still on life support the last time he talked to his dad, but they were basically planning on taking him off it to let him pass in his own bed instead of a hospital. It's entirely possible that he passed after Ian talked to his dad, hence the memorials.   I can't do the Facebook memorial just yet. Not until Ian confirms it to me on the phone.   There are just so many memories that I'm runn

Nano at last!

I remember last year I had heard of Nano and truly wanted to do it..I was all set and had a story forming in my mind....when tragedy struck. My father-in-law died on November 11th and all hell broke loose in my personal life. Writing was out of the question and wasn't even on my brain again until sometime the following March!   Finally though, working through things and with help; life went on. When this November rolled around, I was determined to do it! I had two writing buddies that would he

eBook Review: Catch a Ghost by SE Jakes

Catch a Ghost by S.E. Jakes My rating: 4 of 5 stars   I hesitated to read this book based on the cover title. I adore contemporary paranormal, but I have a... bias, we'll call it, about ghosts. I'm glad I gave Catch a Ghost a chance, however, because it's nothing like what you might expect.   I adore military fiction lately, especially anything that throws in otherworldly info for effect. The spit and polish is missing from the story for the military vibe... but that's because these guys ar

The Vigil

I have waited many nights like this Through the dissident thunders and winds running wild Through raindrops trickling from the broken windows I have waited in my vigilant silence   So dark your visage yet tranquil as smoggy mornings I have spent many nights trying to discern their silhouette Against the many shades of grey my vision had painted In the bleak canvas of nature’s blasphemous hawking   I fear her call, the insistent solicitation of a harlot Aware of nature’s charm in begu

Now the Fun Begins

I finished NaNoWriMo! I’m a winner! I feel really happy and accomplished and proud of myself and very happy. Look, I got a certificate and everything!     Of course, this doesn’t mean that the novel is finished. Far from it. I’ve mostly finished all the chapters, and mostly done it the way I planned. But this is just a rough draft. Currently, the sequel to Nemesis (the proper title of which will be decided at a later date) is a collection of loose scenes, it feels like. That

Writing Prompts #282 & #283

Another Friday has rolled around. Here in the USA it is Black Friday and all the retailers try to get shoppers out and spending their holiday cash. Hopefully before everyone rushes out to do that I can gather a few interested souls in writing a prompt story or two.   Prompt 282 – Creative Tag – First Line “I’ve never had to tell this to anyone else, but I suppose it is time I did.”   Prompt 283 – Creative Tag – Birthday Gift You weren’t exactly looking forward to your birthday but arrived as

My Friend Is In A Coma

My friend of 6 years, Stoner Steve as I've referred to him over the years, is in a coma after overdosing on heroin. He's had brain hemorrhaging and things aren't looking good for him. Our friend Ian let me know in a post over Facebook.   I'm in total shock. Complete and totally. I had just talked to him on Facebook chat November 20th. According to Ian, Steve's dad found him on the floor on Saturday morning. They took him to the hospital, put him in a medically induced coma, and things were l

Just went through my annual performance review...

I just went through my annual performance review, today. I didn't know what to expect to be honest; I knew I did well, kept costs down, increased cash overall by about 35%, and made some damn good projections of receivables based on historical data. I also maintained a tight leash on state based tax agencies and hounded them for refunds due to technicalities of our rate adjustment versus their standard rate that we were automatically paying based on employees. (Tax stuff, but basically, if an em

Let Kids be Kids

Right, I am somewhat in a dizzy miffed off mood today. So this one is a bit of a rant.   There is something that I really just do not get! What is it about sex with a child????   Right, sex is about giving pleasure and taking pleasure right? It is about enjoyment and climax and orgasm right? It's about love and lust and emotions. And you can get ANY of that from a bloody kid???   Ian Watkins today pleaded guilty to a series of depraved child sex offences, including the attempted rape of

Life in Iowa so far

It's been amazing living on my own again, Oh I have missed not having to fight for the shower or the laundry room.   Things were a little rocky when I left home. My brother didn't take it so well and was upset he couldn't update my computer and that I was not paying for him to come with me. So what did he do??? Got into a fight with my dad and bent the fender on my u-haul trailer. My dad fixed the trailer pretty well since U-haul didn't notice. Since the cops were called and I am the one who c

Prompt du jour #4

I don't think anyone took the prompt last week, so without further ado this weeks prompt.   Prompt du jour #4 – Creative Tag: Mystery There’s a killer on the loose, and everyone in your community is scared. This is startling to you because you sense that the serial murderer is targeting a select class of citizen. Who is he/she and why are they targeting them?

lyrics

Written as lyrics for Mendelssohn's Song without Words, Op.30, No. 3 in E Major. Some recapitulation is necessary to accommodate the couplet. Listen while you read.       Sonnet No. 113 [November 13th, 2013 – 7:10 am]   Mendelssohn wrote his lovely Songs without Words, Where harmony alone carries content – And this vibe from a cold sleep came by thirds To wake with its pulse by ardent intent. Sometimes feeling alone is the message, And word following word just lets it flow; Like
