Trying to do a little spring #fitness and dug out the ol' smart scale. Naturally the cheap #batteries it came with had exploded. After looking at what they're called I can't even be disappointed. They made no pretense about it.

#homeschooling quote of the day: Son complaining about his history lesson, "I don't want to learn about the 30 years war b/c it isn't as good as the 100 years war!" Erm... I pretty sure that's not how that works, kid.

You know the story: Rival gangs. Full-on turf war. Rumble in the 'hood. Who do you think would win? (P.S. Also not sure how Strawberry Short Cakes might tip the balance of power in all this.) . #meme #mylittlepony #carebears #mylittlebrony #whowouldwin #christianauthor #christianwriter #cleanmemes #justforfun #funnymemes #strawberryshortcake #saturdaymorningcartoons #cartoon https://instagr.am/p/CK99q8uA1ZT/

COVID-19 and NaNoWriMo, Both!

COVID-19 and NaNoWriMo, Both!

 Hey everybody! Just wanted to check in.  It is November, which, you may know means NaNoWriMo, aka National Novel Writing Month, aka “write an entire book in one month”, aka “interrupt me, and YOU DIE month”. Usually I blog on the experience, but this year, as of yet, I have not.  The reason for that is simple:  I decided to go ahead and catch the coronavirus in the start of November.  Yeah,…

Why We Should Stop Calling 2020 A "Bad Year"

Why We Should Stop Calling 2020 A “Bad Year”

First off, how ’bout that image, eh? 😂 (And, yes, I know about the flammability difference between helium blimp verses a hydrogen zeppelin.  But the pun wouldn’t work if they were both zeppelins, so cut me some slack, ok! 😫)

Anyway, I thought I’d jump into a pet peeve of mine today: people referring to 2020 as a “bad year”.

Even now I struggle with a similar line of thinking that a day is either…

5-Day Fast (FMD) - Did it work?

5-Day Fast (FMD) – Did it work?

Context – My personal story:

Okay, this isn’t a fitness blog, but here’s the deal.  Lately I’ve been trying to think of ways to get in better shape.  This spring I’ve been going on a 5-mile walk every day, which has been good, but now it’s time for something more.

Just for a frame of reference, back in highscool/college when I used to work out, I weighed a pretty consistent 180.  A few years…

Pandemic Owners Manual

SARS, Bird Flu, West Nile Virus… It seems like every few years there is some new dread disease that is going to kill us all. Yet as of the time of this article none has had the same level of cultural impact as the latest plague du jour, coronavirus. (One might even say it has gone… viral. 😜)

No!  Don’t leave!  Last pun. I promise, okay? ✋

My point is (and the reason I felt the need for a blog…

Clive Cussler

One of my major writing inspirations died this week. :_( His story: Multiple bestselling action/adventure author Clive Cussler died on Monday in his Arizona home. The facts surrounding that can be easily found on your mainsleaze news media of choice or wikipedia, but I wanted to chime into the conversation with my take on his work and how it has influenced my own.    First, if you’re not…

Author Business Plan

The main purpose of this post is not only to check in but also to provide a little more information around what “Edmund Lloyd Fletcher” is about as an author.

Backing up a step, I was recently reading an ebook that said, “the reason why most authors fail is that they do not treat their writing career like a business”.  The book went on to explain how most authors don’t have a business plan.
