So the Mrs. is a science teacher up in Indy. Which means that we get in a good number of trips every month up that way for socializing purposes.

Much to Be Caught Up On: New Poems to Be Published
Had to take a wee break from this whole blogging thing. I’m working on Library Science Degree and getting ready to finish work on my Fiction Manuscript for my MFA out here at good ol’ IU. All in all the summer has been pretty busy, which explains a lot in terms of not getting atContinue reading “Much to Be Caught Up On: New Poems to Be Published”

He was always a big fan of Freddie Hubbard and used to play a great number of Hubbard’s tracks, particularly so when old Ed Love was feeling aContinue reading “Look out it’s Freddie Hubbard time.”
The First One – And We’re Off And Running
A great illumination so often starts with a whimper. Perhaps so with this page. Amidst a rather thoroughly cold spring day in Indiana, I’m taking a breath from the revision of a fiction piece I had in workshop last September. As promised in my most recent publication in Front Range, it is one of thoseContinue reading “The First One – And We’re Off And Running”
