Starting a blog

17 Oct. 2010

My Porch of Happiness

This is the first evening of "my blog." I don't know what the word "blog" means or where it comes from - I'll google it (smile) and find out.


Who the hell am I, you ask? I write Science Fiction stories. I try to be nice to people and not be the ass my closest friends (which I am lucky to have any at all) know I am very capable of being.


I plan to keep a journal here on my blog--it is a rather cool word, isn't it.  I will also write essays and post(when and, if, I do actually get them written)them here as well. By the way check out Michael Chabon's website for some of the most illuminating and delightful essays.


My story-in-progress is currently entitled, Silver Wheel. It's about a civilization of very highly advanced aliens who decided to make contact with Earth by sending a young Haitian boy a communications device by FedExpress. Well, I'm off to write.


Goodbye for now Computerland-Internet-WWWworld. Take care of your circuits.
