About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

Finding The Time To Write

I am supposed to be editing one of my stories so I can send it to a
Literary Agent.
I would like to get published but the odds are astronomical.
Especially now.
I heard one agent say in a podcast,
"Stop sending in stories about viruses killing everyone in the world. It's been done."
She also went on to say since everyone is in quarantine,
agents all over the world are getting twice as many manuscripts from wannabe writers,
such as myself.
I will not be discouraged though.
I'm not trying to become rich
and famous.
But if I made a little money from my writing,
that would be icing on the cake.
We all know that a good cake is just as edible without the icing though.
I would really like to see one of my novel length stories get printed.
It is a goal I have.
You have to have goals after you retire in life,
or boredom will eat away at your essence.
There is no other reason to retire than to have the time to do the very things you love to do in life.
Otherwise,
keep working.
You have to have something to do.
So if I miss a day of writing on this
Blog,
just know that I am either editing my latest novel,
learning how to play the
Hurdy Gurdy,
or spending quality time with my family.
Because,

That is my story and I am sticking to it!
