Wedding Day

Okay, enough Saturday. The wedding, which was a Jewish wedding, was held on Sunday. My sister converted, so that gave us the opportunity to see something we haven’t seen before, and learn something about the Jewish faith. This is my newly-minted brother-in-law Barry. He’s a good man. They visited us… Continue reading

Back to the Wedding Weekend

Okay, I’m finally getting around to posting a few more pictures from the wedding. Where did we leave off? Oh yes, the science museum. After the museum closed, we all went back to the hotel. Here we have a kid pile. Olivia, Haley, Russell, Reanna, and Audrey. Olivia shows something… Continue reading

Times Gettin’ Away From Me

Wow time’s gettin’ away from me. Thursday since my last post? Really, it’s been a tough few days. I did manage to finish my edits of the story I wrote with Ruth Nestvold. She has it now. In addition, I scrapped a story-in-progress because I found it lame. I’m using… Continue reading

More Wedding Stuff

Here are the next set of pictures. Reanna enjoyed a hot chocolate moustache during saturday’s lunch. After lunch, we went to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. We had to wait in line. Here is Russell, the girls’ backs, and Dad wearing a very smart cap. Here are Mom… Continue reading

We’re Back

No, I haven’t forgotten about the blog. I’ve been exhausted and swamped between work and homework help since we got back. As an aside, are you getting as tired of politics as I am? I finally found something that says it all for me in this presidential election. Say no… Continue reading

This weekend my sister Kori was married to a wonderful guy, Barry Stevelman. This was the first time I’ve ever witnessed a Jewish wedding, so it was quite an experience. We flew in from Phoenix yesterday morning and met the rest of the family at the hotel in Denver. The… Continue reading

Collaboration Redux

Last September (as in 07) the Codex Writers Group held a captive collaboration contest. I was matched with the esteemed Ruth Nestvold. She has a bit more of a track record than I do, so I was thrilled with the match-up. It seemed to work well, too. Unfortunately, we both… Continue reading

Are You Sneoome Who Can Raed Tihs?

A Step Forward

On Sunday, I took my turn having a manuscript raked across the coals. This time it was a story called Karoshi. The response was pretty favorable, and the other writers in the group all gave some good input. I went through and edited the manuscript tonight and I think it’s… Continue reading

Story is Up

“Swirling Beneath One Thin Ring” is now live at The Martian Wave. You can see it here. I learned today that this will be the final online version of the magazine. After eleven years as a quarterly on the web, they are becoming a biannual print magazine. It has been… Continue reading
