Medic stuff over 4 NOW. Still feel hostile, though. Cranked over Bush & Kerry! Want to know why B wears military-looking duds. LQQKing forward to debates.

I am so loving this summer. green and gold. Nice big check yesterday. It's wonderful to get paid for my words. It makes me humble. And makes up for the hours of rewrite. Working on the new Erle & Stumpy story -- Erle opens a diner with a black Navy (is that confusing? colorwise?) cook named... ta -- DA-- what else? COOKIE! I know you're waiting for a new story but it comes when it comes. Hope you're enjoying the one at www.footstepstooxford.com. Read the editor's bio. It's great. My town is so small that the meter reader does double duty as the bomb-sniffng dog. (my joke of the day)

Mirror Pie
by
RD Larson


I stumble, the mirror falls, shattered.
I pick it up, a broken pie in slices now.
My image fractured, my faith and inward self.
This glittering vision is it real or is it fool's gold?
A slice of self is all I see, A slice of self is all I show.
Other slices of the mirror pie are secrets
never shared. Ala mode. And not.

I'm so opinionated that I can't make up my mind. But then sometimes I do. I like Bush's dog. I love my dog. I don't think Bush's got the overview. But then how can Kerry since he's not privy to all (ALL) the secrets of the Power Train. Also how come Condi isn't in CHARGE of all INTELLIGENCE?  I somehow thought that was her job. She ought to get with Jack Bauer in the next 24 and see what he knows. Ever see Three Days of the Condor?  me, too. When that old movie was made there was intelligence "gathering" -- so what happened.
Hot as fried snot here today. For me anyway.  Just read http://coolshots.blogspot.com/2004/07/am-in-am_23.html of beFrank. Cool site and well done.

Well, I didn't submit Sea Phantom but I did submit "K9 Delivery" more suited to general audiences. Hot today.  Wonder about the 9-11 commission?  Me too. Haven't heard any more about the food for oil scandal either. Bush has such a smirk. Cheney's so big business. Edwards is so slick. Kerry is so chameleon. What a decision.  Good for Puff Daddy though! Get out the vote.
Sign up and do your job and I will too. But if you don't I won't either. So there. :P

I'm thinking I'll submit the story called for lack of better title, Phantom of the Sea, to the local fair. I don't know. I'm so shy. Bad form for a writer. As writers we have to promote our books all the time. I like the way the story reads -- the revenge and finality of it. Still recovering from invasive procedure but then knowledge is power. Too tired to write much today. I've been unable to sit still for long. It was suggested I wear a sign saying, TYPE A ON BOARD.

My little black dog tried to fight with a pit bull tonight.
Lucky him -- the dog couldn't get out of the big red truck.

Romance?  A little humor?  Going to the beach? Go to the site above. My story, Flora is number #2. Copy it and paste it in a new document.  Print it out or suck it in to you Palm or keep it on your PC desk top.  Don't like Romance or Cats?  Send it to someone you know does. What you can do for me, if you read it and like it, please go back to the site and say something NICE about it

here's a good story with a kicker for an ending. Geoff is so good to read.

Me? Just going to hang by a hangnail for the time being. Ye gods, but it's a bit grim so far. The smallest of arrows falls the biggest of men. (and wor-mans, too!) ---->----->-®

Sunny here today. Having oysters. That's white right? But no salsa on them. I bought some green sauce. Green like my eyes. Tomorrow night it's clear liquids and I don't think that means gin and tonic. Oh am I ever bummed out! Bummed get it? (y)

I've been working on my website. I've got a story of mine up there. A great story about the Prince of Foxes by Will Gray and a sci-fi by Geoff Nelder.

Go thru the pages. see what you like. you could even find a picture of a NEAR MISS.

With me it's always a NEAR MISS!

I hope you writers out there didn't blow off your fingers playing with fireworks. The world needs writers to show the secret truths of life.

Big time happy fourth to you one and all, American or not. Let's hope that next year this sad Country is truly happy. Without a war and without Bush. Thank you servicemen and women for being and doing. Thank you founding fathers (and mothers) for this great country. Don't drive drunk and don't play with guns. Or run with scissors either.
