Walking Through The Valley (Book) http://www.Writing.Com/main/books.php/item_id/1183984-Walking-Through-The-Valley/month/10-1-2009 Pretty damned bold to make a statement like that, now wouldn't ya say? But then, we all know I'm just that kinda guy. Right? In this first of two planned posts today (sorry, fans) I would like to tell you just a little bit about why I review reviewers. It started early this morning, when I was perusing another blog by my friend [Link To User planne...[Read Full Post] Sun, 01 Nov 2009 00:04:58 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/674076 It isn't news to anyone--I suppose. Calendars are a very important device for those of us on this journey. Doctor appointments tests, travel to different planets for a quick lobotomy--these and more are significant issues that must be dealt with. I am preparing my November, 2009 calendar. I am not happy. I have several calendars in my apartment. They, when cur...[Read Full Post] Thu, 29 Oct 2009 17:46:01 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/673790 Several of you have asked about the latest medical news. I have posted a blog entry on it [Link: 'here.'] It's current, for the most part. It may explain some of the things I have been tangentially referring to since coming back to this Blog. I hope you will read it. It matters. In His Care, Budroe...[Read Full Post] Tue, 27 Oct 2009 12:59:54 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/673501 I am back on the WDC site. I am back because, just like in the beginning, I want to learn more of my craft. I want to become a better writer. Writers write--every day. I am participating in the [Link: '2009 National Novel Writing Month'] activity. I have joined the WDC NaNo groups and will be representing WDC and FMWriters groups. One of the ...[Read Full Post] Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:16:42 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/673470 Life picks up speed at such times. It's a pleasant change from the usual daily schedule, and puts a lot of pep in my step--so to speak. Today will see us visiting one of the Southern Illinois towns that are so picturesque. It is a college town called Carbondale; I'm sure many of you will know of it. Carbondale is the home of Southern Illinois Uni...[Read Full Post] Sat, 24 Oct 2009 13:05:35 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/673105 Imagine. Among all the different things that we experience along the journey, there are so many new people, events, and experiences which we must somehow assimilate into our daily lives, now that we have learned we must come to grips with this new reality. It can get very confusing, and more than a little intimidating along the journey. Some things, ...[Read Full Post] Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:45:38 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672428 Friends: Nearly two ago now, an item "hit the wires" concerning me. In all that time, I have said nothing, because I felt there was nothing to say. Since returning to Writing.com, I have learned in a personal way that many persons other than myself were negatively affected by that item. While I believe the damage done is the responsibi...[Read Full Post] Mon, 19 Oct 2009 13:23:28 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672409 Well, here it is, once again! I am participating this year in the crazness, along with at least 250 other WDC members. I have joined the NaNo Write-A-Thon Group for this year's fun and frivolity! I do support the activity. This year, however, my words can create GPs for several good causes. Perhaps your cause could use some GP's as well. I n...[Read Full Post] Sat, 17 Oct 2009 03:24:36 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672080 "Book of the Year Awards" "DIY Convention Awards" "The Edgars" "2009 Independent Publisher's Awards" $25.00 per entry, up to $75.00 per entry, per category (Limit five categories, per title; limit five title)...ouch!

Most of that was due to my inability to have an online connection at all. That absence was, for some, a welcome reprieve from the carryings on of a crazy man. Some of the many friends of this blog, who had blogs of their own, seem to have disa...[Read Full Post] Thu, 15 Oct 2009 10:38:25 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/671833
