The Bloggy Part: I’ve been in a bit of a creative rut lately. That is, until I was chatting with Dark Overlord the other day. During the course of the conversation, two great flash fiction prompts presented itself like peacocks at the peak of mating season. Feathers out, strutting their…

Shopping… Wheels… Audiobooks… Gin…
The Bloggy Part: This morning I found myself thinking, “When I look back on 2020 and the pandemic, what sorts of things will I remember about this experience?” I’ve found comfort in plants and online shopping carts. We now get our groceries delivered to us like we are pharaohs. (Now…
