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 Daily Grind"
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?
I've started a new blog, "The Daily Grind" Not sure how interesting it will be to read, as it's sort of a diary of my activity here, but you're all welcome and will be warmly greeted should you choose to interact. The first entry, "Continuity" , consists of the previous entries that I was keeping in a static item. This seems more conducive to interaction, so here we go. Wish me luck!
I've been talking about jump-starting my writing for some time now. Part of the reason I'm here is that I hope to get inspired again. Might be working. This story isn't new, but it is the lead-in to a series that has me excited for the first time in years. Let's hope it continues! come join me for the first of my
Really hope you like it, and even more, that I find it intriguing enough to keep going. Oh, and be sure to open the folder notes and read them; they provide a lot of context.
Good morning, all. I came here two weeks ago to read your fine stories, and I have found some that are quite enjoyable. Now we're entering a new month, and I've been looking for ways to get more involved. The first one I've come up with is to offer a monthly award for the story that most impressed me, so I've set that up, and you can check it out at the link below.
May you be blessed with great ideas, and the time to pursue them! Taylor
Good morning, fellow travelers, and I hope it finds you all writing! I joined the site ten days ago, and shortly thereafter posted an old short story from my archives. I wasn't initially going to promote them at all, being as everything I have to offer is old and I'm really here to read and review your fine works anyway, but I decided to post one promo every time I post a story which I don't expect to be that often, frankly. So, here's the promo:
More importantly, in the course of reviewing I occasionally encounter a piece of exceptional quality, and I post them as I find them on the Highlighted Items section of my Biography tab. Whether you're looking for a technically and artistically proficient story, or just want to see what I look for in an author, that's where to go to find them. And that's it for this particular missive. Looking forward to seeing you around the site.
