I’m a writer. I’m working on a Mystery/Thriller/shooting/extortion/sexual tension/big money, kind of book. I want the story ot punch like Raymond Chandler, dance like Damon Runyon, and sing like D. H. Lawrence, with a midnight smile from Hunter S. Thompson.
A paper route, mail order sales, bagging groceries, selling tile, grout,

the back stroke at the Venice Beach Saturday Swim when I was six,
and an honorable mention for my pencil drawing of a tug boat at
the San Diego County Fair. Add a self straightened broken toe,
three cats, and who knows how much Agent Orange.

Day 29
Been to the Coffee Bean. I'm all coffee'd up. Time to type.As promised, less about my mundane daily activities, (Which NFL game to watch, rantings about contentious computers, movie reviews), and more about writing. I'm trying to coax writers to visi...
Day 28
Colts vs Ravens, or Cowboys vs Redskins. Which to watch? Commentator saying, "Redskins will implement their running game much of the day." Decision made, I'll go with the Colts/Ravens. Tedious running game? Not today. I like the Alley-Oops!As you wel...
Day 27
