Let's talk about writing or the arts for a change. I'm weary of discussing politics with fools. #author #novel #writingcommunity #arts

How is the writing going, you ask? I just completed all 45 chapters of my next novel, a sequel to Heart in the Jungle, spiced with espionage. Next is a hard edit of my draft, but, like an artist, the details of the final strokes are very important. #author #novel #firstdraft #WritingCommunity

To go where no one has gone before, especially when it's urgent. This is how my imagination works, as it did last night when I was replacing the toilets flush flappers. #startrek #enterprise #author

I stand with Ukraine, not Russia! Who in their right mind in the United States thinks Putin is a good guy? Oh wait, I just remembered who and apparently not in his right mind!

This photo from the early 1980s was a time in Camelot when fortune in love and family was all I needed. Everyone in this family moment--my beautiful wife Carol, Mom, Dad, in-laws, are now gone. But I dwell not on what I've lost, but remember how lucky I was to have them in my life.

Today (Jan. 20) is a very special day in the USA. Today we celebrate Martin Luther King Day to honor this great American and his legacy. I don't know of anything else today worth celebrating. (photos by FLauver)
