Shopping
One of my favorite gifts to give is a book, but it can be really hard to find the best book for each person. I tend to read by author, collecting everything that author has written. A friend was able to find a missing book from my collection and I was so pleased, no words…
Web Design
My website just keeps getting better all the time and it is thanks to Bryon Craig and his magic computer skills. If you are a writer and looking to start a website for promotions and marketing, I cannot recommend him enough. Message me and I’ll put you in contact.
Review from teacher
Your visit was so meaningful! Evidently one student was scheduled to have a very special meeting to talk tech with someone in our building and turned them down to come to class. They didn’t want class to end (as you noticed). What you don’t know is what was next for them in the schedule. You…
Weather changes and seasons
Much like the seasons here on earth, on NewEarth the weather and seasons follow a pattern, but then the pattern is not always neat and clean. A frozen storm in the middle of fall can melt and leave a muddy dead autumn in its wake, or spring can arrive latter than expected. Summer can be…
Fifth grade class
I had a wonderful opportunity during the month of November to be part of a fifth grade groups adventure in writing their first novels. They did a spectacular job and oozed enthusiasm. What a great group of students in Kodiak, Alaska. The world is a better place for having such wonderful creative people as part…
Different
Having taught high school for so many years, I have a unique perspective on human nature and behavior, because teens often do not have the civilized veneer of most adults and they say what they think. That being said, the drive to conform, to be the same is hard wired into our instincts. Even when…
Bentars And Others
New art is being posted, so look at the glossary under NewEarth discussions to see some of the animals. It may surprise you how alike your image and mine are of the animals.
Thanksgiving
Over the last week I was visiting family and having a grand time so I didn’t do much blogging, but I ate a lot, so that should count for something. I am hoping that everyone had a wonderful holiday. For those who recently lost a family member, you have my heartfelt sympathy. Those first holidays…
Thanksgiving
My list today is shorter, but no less important. Modern medicine is a winner on my list from antihistamines to antibiotics, heart transplants and cures for cancer. I am a fan of medicine, healing and research.
Thankful List
At this time of Thanksgiving, like most Americans, I start making a list. I thought I would share a bit of it here as much of it is reflected in my stories. Hot and cold water in the house is always on the list. If you have ever had to pump and carry water and…
NewEarth
One of the best parts of creating a world is deciding what type of creatures to put in it. If you get a chance stop by the glossary and see some of the artwork associated with the names of my animals.
Tea suggestion
Orange juice is a great thing to add to black tea, it not only adds flavor and sweetness it enhances the flavors well if you add ginger and other spices. Of course fresh orange does the same, but the juice can be concentrated. On a cold night, add spiced rum.
