Bumps In The Night (E) That feeling you get with your head on your pillow and the room goes cold. #2330556 by BrokenRing
Good morning evening, all! I am pleased to report that tales of my demise have been highly exaggerated, and I am back in business. Apparently, last evening's celebration took something of a raucous turn — we'll let the police blotter remain the only record of the details — and my laptop was included in a round of drinks. As I'm told will happen with these finicky electronics, the encounter with Italy's finest left the numbers and top row of letters completely incoherent and no longer able to function in the manner they were intended.
Enter my daughter, as heroic and devoted an offspring as anyone has ever been blessed with. Let me tell you what this capeless superheroine did for her old man. On the last day off of her rather skewed work week, she put on outdoor clothing and drove to Wal-Mart ON BLACK FRIDAY to secure her silenced father a replacement keyboard. Thanks to her efforts, I am no longer muzzled, and will be able to post the second "Sunset Beach" story late tonight or early tomorrow as planned!
Isn't she incredible?
To whom it may concern: My computer has packed up, and this tablet isn't going to cut it. I think the issue is with the keyboard, so mission 1 is to get out and get a replacement. If that works, I'll see you in a couple of hours. If I need a new computer, I'll let you know. That could take a mite longer.
I've been here about six weeks, and have been sharing my writing journal as a blog called The Daily Grind. Realizing that I've set off in the wrong direction, I've changed the name to The Phriday Philosopher, and the content to... Well, swing by and see for yourself, as I offer my first post of the new look, "Changes" . Let me know if you like the new format and if there's any subject you'd like me to talk about or questions you'd like to ask. I've been enjoying your work here; I'd like to think that you might enjoy some of mine! ~ Taylor...
Good wee hours Friday morning to you! "The Friday Philosopher, 22 Nov 24" is up and ready to be perused. This week I'm talking mostly about where my philosophy of reviewing is headed, so If you've an interest or a comment, I'd love to see you there! ~ Taylor...
Hello again, friends. I come before you today with another "Friday Philosopher" feature, this one concerning my new series that's just getting underway. I invite you to take it out for a spin and see whether you'd like to add it to your regular rounds. I'd love to see you there! "The Friday Philosopher, 15 Nov 24"
I've been conflicted about posting these updates every time I add a new entry to my blog. On the one hand I'd like to have scads of readers offering up lively discussions on every entry I post. On the other, every entry I post isn't that interesting. My blog is, first and foremost, a personal journal, and reading about how "Today I did a review and wrote a scene" may not really be that interesting to everyone. So I've decided that when I offer a discussion point that goes beyond that simple laundry list, I'll post it here. Like today, for example. If I keep it interesting enough, the readers should start coming, right? Well, that's my hope, anyway, so let the experiment begin with "13 Nov 24"
I should let ya know, blogs don't get a whole lot of traction here for whatever reason. I poured a ton of effort into blogging about music (ten entries in September, eighteen in October) and hardly any of them received notice until I name-dropped Taylor Swift in the most recent one "Blank Space (ID cover)" Whereupon my stats shot up to record numbers mysteriously for a couple weeks afterwards, but without meaningful interaction. Just saying...
I normally wouldn't share news of an ordinary blog post here, but I'm excited. Today, for the first time in two years, I have a story off and running, and I anticipate it continuing for the foreseeable future. Join me in my celebration, should the mood strike you, at "The Phriday Philosopher"
I've added a new entry to my blog, an actual post this time instead of just a journal entry. Come join the discussion with "The Friday Philosopher; 8 Nov 24" Is it a date?
