There’s a pome in that there beer

I’m still not really doing #napowrimo, but I posted this for NERAX. (A cask ale festival running in South Boston until Saturday 4/6.) The Reaper appeared, To swipe some beers, But never fear, NERAX is still here!

How do you do, haiku?

I wasn’t planning on doing #napowrimo, but this came out over beers and grammar. The flexible rules Of English define meanings That speakers renew.

Old Sun rising on a new year

Okay, let’s try this again. It’s been way too easy to just share cool stuff on the obvious platforms. This year I resolve not to allow them to seduce me into neglecting my own platform, such as it is. So anyway. Today there’s a way cool video of a sun halo in Sweden from the […]

Pipevine Swallowtail

Oh yeah, there’s this thing

It’s been a long time since I posted here, but I’m still doing a little bit of writing every day. A tiny bit of writing. A teeny, tiny bit of writing. But September 4 is the anniversary of the day I started that streak, so it’s a good a time as any to come back […]

Story #10 is delivered

Just when I had decided not to worry about writing flash stories in order to catch up to the story a week pace, I wrote a flash story. It’s about 400 words that I guess are all right. I’m calling it “Special Delivery”.

Story #9 is done, but that’s it

So maybe I can stop using exclamation points. Story #9 is “Moving Out”, about 700 words about making a big move. Actually I finished it a week ago. Last week, I was sort of hoping to write a bunch of flash fictions. So I went back to my Boskone notes for inspiration. This year, one of […]
