March 12, 2017 Tasting Notes My Beautiful Wife and the Heir Apparent have been away for a couple of weeks. Too long, really. Still the time intervening between departure and return must be filled. I’ve been reading, caught up on some films, gotten a solid push on the second draft of “Boss.” Productive, I think.… Continue reading Tasting Notes. Resurrected Post.

NanoCon Mk. IV. Resurrected Post.
March 5, 2017 NanoCon Mk. IV Here’s a bit of news I, at least, found interesting. I’ve been asked to be the Guest of Honor (note the capitals, because I’m kind of a big deal, y’know?) of NanoCon Mk. IV Science Fiction Convention. The con will be March 24 and 25 in Longview, Washington. If… Continue reading NanoCon Mk. IV. Resurrected Post.
Somnus is AWOL. Resurrected Post.
February 26, 2017 Somnus is AWOL There was a period of about six months following the birth of the Heir Apparent during which I was functionally a zombie. A decent night’s sleep consisted of perhaps four hours, broken into two-hour blocks. Ah, good times. But gradually the HA began sleeping through the night on a… Continue reading Somnus is AWOL. Resurrected Post.
Idle Plots. Resurrected Post.
February 19, 2017 Idle Plots Pardon me while I ramble on a bit. This is primarily (or perhaps entirely) for my benefit. Consider it musing or work notes. Geography dictates the battlespace. As a rule, soldiers aren’t herded together onto a broad, featureless plain, formed up into ranks and columns, and marched headlong at the… Continue reading Idle Plots. Resurrected Post.
Savage Journal 1
I began playing around with the notion of writing an extended, serial story many years back. It ended up in a condensed package under the title Savage Journal. (Still available floating about on the web somewhere.) But I thought it might be fun to run it as originally intended here on my web log. Let… Continue reading Savage Journal 1
Between the Covers. Resurrected Post.
February 12, 2017 Between the Covers “What are you reading, Ken?” I assume you are asking for purposes of today’s post. I’m glad you asked. As usual, I have several books going at any one time. This week I finished “The Hunted” by Elmore Leonard. Typically outstanding work. It is also an example of how… Continue reading Between the Covers. Resurrected Post.
No Time to Binge, Doctor Jones. Resurrected Post.
February 5, 2017 No Time to Binge, Doctor Jones I’ll be driving MBW and the HA to a restaurant later this afternoon to watch the Superbowl with friends. In part this is to see friends. Also in part because I wouldn’t be able to watch the game at home. See, my house gets crap TV… Continue reading No Time to Binge, Doctor Jones. Resurrected Post.
More Too Late Movie Reviews. Resurrected Post.
January 29, 2017 More Too Late Movie Reviews I don’t get to the movie theater much, maybe once a year. So movies are a home affair, on variety of screen sizes, and generally a matter of compromise. As I was, temporarily, a bachelor this weekend, I was able to skip compromise and select whatever I… Continue reading More Too Late Movie Reviews. Resurrected Post.
Rest. Resurrected Post.
January 22, 2017 Rest A few days ago I finished the first draft of the novel I’m working on. Huzzah. Glory and trumpets. Time to set it aside, gain some distance from it so I can approach it with fresh eyes for the second draft. Normally this means moving on to the next project. Now,… Continue reading Rest.
