Honest, Direct and Hits the Mark

So I ran across this over at yubtub and it really cuts through the soft and squishy clutter of slippery excuses and coddling consolations that just don't motivate or help one to get anything done. Ever.
The only way to get anything done is to get it done; only way to write is to write.
Thank you Alexa for some great advice.

Three Little Words...

So, with the demise of the Three Word Wednesday blog, the adventures of Bernitte and their serial Red Handed has been on hiatus, much like Bujilli. I considered making use of various random generators out on the web to provide a fresh set of three words every week...but none of them really quite hit the spot, not like the Three Word Wednesday prompts. It was a fun weekly challenge, for a while, a nice companion to producing a new episode of Bujilli's misadventures in Wermspittle (and Beyond) every Thursday and the Eight-Word Serial I was doing for Zeelia as well. In a way the Three Words challenge was a sort of warm-up for Bujilli & Zeelia both, and I have missed writing those serials quite a bit. Stopping wasn't exactly voluntary, but I don't wish to bore anyone with the gory details of my little excursion into serious illness and slow-going recovery. Let's just say that 'I got better,' (...more or less...) and leave it at that. I've spent a l

Index: Friday Flash Fiction by Garrisonjames

Friday Flash by Garrisonjames The goal is to post a brand new piece of flash fiction every Friday. Most flash fiction clocks in at under 1,000 or 2,000 words, but can be as brief as 365 words, 101 words, 140 words, five or six sentences, even just six words. There's a lot of room for experimentation and exploration. The Friday Flash meme is hosted by the nice people at the Friday Flash website. Sometimes I use the prompts, or I use other prompts, other times I don't use any prompts. It all depends on my mood and the phase of the moon. You can find out more about the challenge, and what stories are available each Friday by clicking over to the  Friday Flash G+ Group. . Stories are listed from Newest to Oldest.

AEDM2017, Day 30...Last Star on the Left

Art Everyday Month  is an artistic challenge established by Leah Koildas at her blog  Creative Every Day . She explains it pretty well on a page dedicated to the  Challenge. Essentially, those participating set themselves the goal of producing some one creative work each day for the entire month of November. In some respects it is like  Inktober , which I opted out of due to a lot of scheduling conflicts...but maybe next year I can do both challenges. So, for this year, for Creative every Day Month, I will be posting fresh new drawings and other artwork here at my personal blog. some of these will get statted-up as critters for our  Hereticwerks  blog--you didn't really think otherwise did you?--but some will be just for the sake of trying some technique out, or to do something I haven't done in a while. Today I did this... Oh go ahead and click on it. You know you want to... I wanted to do something with light, so a star sounded like a good idea and since the
