had over 1,200 entries and that was getting close to full. I don't want to trim it by deletion. I did that once, much to my dismay. Will be used more for poetry.
Watt's Gnus (18+) On topics and today's gnus. Definitely opinionated. Set to 18+ for a reason. #1439092 by Kåre เลียม Enga
come out of a need to share interesting stuff I come across. When I was young I did a small newsletter named as such. (or was it column in the newsletter? Been 30 years... I think.)
is where I put my flash fictions. Maybe someday I'll figure it out and have enough good ones to publish. Ratings vary and some are hidden from view.
I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

is for posting personal blog entries in hope that folks will comment and post their blog entries there as well. I will be commenting on all blog entries posted. It's my effort to rebuild a blogging community.
Lots of things checked . That's good, right? Or did you just list those checked? Doesn't matter. Sounds like reasonably good trip. Relax now and recover.
At least the Lions made it forward. The first time since 1991.
It was a winter 80 here with cool shadows. Started with rain by the shore that washed out to sea. The sun tried to dodge the clouds all day, but it was a losing battle. Did flash green as it ducked goodbye heading your way.
Maid of the Mist Most Macabre You capture the purpose of this blog. Balance is elusive for me. If I'm depressed I can see my accomplishments. If I'm smug I can see the pain. If I think I haven't lived... I must admit that I once was alive.
Ah, this is life, the mundane mixed with moments of wonder. We need to eat so ,we think about it, prepare for it, do it. We need to socialize so, we seek it out wherever we can find it. Sometimes, we need to wander without any goals or purpose. We observe. We marvel. We breathe. Not everything requires scheduling.
30DBC: How much of your own life or the lives of people you know do you put into your writing? Do you mine your past for inspiration, or do you create wholly new places and characters?
Depends...
Many of my poems are for people or based on people. Some mildly fictionalized...
The Zmitri poems are for my friend Gary. The idea is two individuals connected throughout time and the cosmos. Not very radical but most poets don't write about that. And not unique. When I watched "My Roommate is a Fairy Fox" (Chinese) I was gobsmacked on how they handled two characters still attached after 1,000 years. The theme of loyalty and forever being thankful uplifted me. It makes me want to edit my Zmitri poems and share them.
My chapbook This and Every November is a collection of 22 poems written for specific individuals.
And I would be remiss if I didn't mention my Latter-Day-Vampire Bawang. S/he is totally fiction... or so I thought... until I met Wesley/Catherine on a bus out of Boise.
IMHO, regardless whether characters (or places) are fictional they will always resemble someone or some place.
The trick is making the reader believe they are real.
