Brief insights into my writing world. |
I started my blog in June 2016, intending to have a place to get my stories in the hands of readers. I started with one follower -- my wife. I post a daily quote, as well as short stories and vignettes. Alas, current events pull my attention and I've added current events to the mix. You can find my Tavern Tales at: https://jjshaun.com/ Enjoy! |

As a US citizen who has worked their whole life, contributed to the promise of a monthly payment for life after retirement, and taken an oath to defend the US Constitution, I’m done with the Robber Barons ripping us off. So, I stood in the cold, making my voice heard and presence seen as one in a sea of many. ~~~ Read the full post and see the pictures at https://jjshaun.com/2025/04/06/hands-off/ |
I spent the better part of the week wondering how badly my system crashed. As it turned out, not as bad as I feared. ~~~ Read the full post at https://jjshaun.com/2025/03/30/recovery/ |
