On Friday night, I got to watch these boys [men would be a more accurate word, considering they’re in their 40s now] rock it out. My goodness, it was amazing! A total flashback of my childhood, except I was able to drink a beer simultaneously. More to come later in the week once I can…
This Friday, I’m going to be participating in something I am not proud of, something that is incredibly embarrassing to admit to even my closest friends. To make things worse, I’m bringing a friend with me. What is this shameful event that I speak of? This Friday, June 21st, I’m going to a New Kids…
OK, have you ever noticed that when it rains, it pours? Well, the same also works for POSITIVES in life, too. On Monday, I was thrilled to learn that my school’s portal, Connect, had picked up an article I’d written about Twitter and how I used it to network and gain a relationship with a…
Yesterday afternoon my school, Full Sail University, announced the release of it’s ninth volume of The Aviator, a literary e-journal comprised of student work. I had mentioned a few weeks back that The Aviator had accepted a few of my pieces, so I wanted to pass along the information for downloading the newest edition of…
So, today has started out pretty awesome, as I noticed that the school’s Online Newspaper and Student Resource, Connect, has picked up my article, “How I Tweeted My Way to a Great Logo!” Woohoo! Hope you enjoyed the excerpt! You’ll have to be a student/staff member to read the rest. 🙂 Optimistic it’s going to…
With your first breath, you stole our hearts. Perfection in its tiniest form, you hold us in your little hands. The love we feel for you is indefinable, permanent, and preponderant. Your eyes, gateways to a soul in its most innocent and purist form, I could look at you for hours. Your little toes, individually…
A good friend of mine posted a challenge in our writer’s group to try and emulate Ernest Hemingway’s 6-word story [For sale: baby shoes, never worn] by crafting our own story in less than 10 words. Everyone contributed some AWESOME [mostly sad, surprisingly] short stories. It’s impressive what you can do with a limited economy…
This is a photo I took while riding [as passenger] down I-4 on the way to the beach. It feels like it’s practically begging for a story to be written about it. I’m posting it now as inspiration – both for my readers and for myself. My goal is write a piece of flash fiction…
Since I’ve been inconsistent and sporadic with my posts the last month or so, I figured sharing a poem I wrote about inconsistency was fitting. Enjoy: In a lubricious world, I seek Stability. Â Concrete foundations, Crack Under even the most purposeful steps. Â Walls of stone and brick Crumble With the passing of the…
I’ve been missing in action for several days on both of my blogs. Despite my personal life slowing down [no more brothers or sisters to get married, woohoo!] and my school schedule leveling off, I’ve not found time to post on here in several days. Why, you may ask? A few nights ago, after getting…
