OK, prepare to laugh – perhaps uncomfortably, BUT I hope uproariously — as you read this one! It’s about bike seats and private parts… I have a bike seat that fits me very well. I’m broad-beamed so I have a broad-beamed bike seat that keeps me from chaffing (most of the time) down under… […]

On misgendering: Yeah, I do it, too, even with myself on occasion. Yesterday when Lisa and I were driving to the bike shop to get my bike tires replaced (I got a flat on the Orting Trail; more on that in a minute, since I’ve now introduced it as a topic), she confessed to

I just looked at my writing income so far this month. It has reached FULL-MONTH pre-COVID levels already. I hope it continues!!! All of the recent client testimonials have been terrific, too, even though I didn’t quite meet expectations for one of them (more on that shortly). And because I didn’t, early this

Where’s your happy place? Have you identified it yet? Is it the same place as your best friend’s? I’ve discovered that mine isn’t. And that’s okay. But I need to keep that in mind so we don’t butt heads. As many interests as Lisa and I share (goats, biking, learning,

I wrote five 700-word articles for a new client. If he likes them, he will hire me to do 25 more. They’re a challenge because they’re all on the same topic, which doesn’t come with a ton of talking points. So,

My three newest clients are very happy. I know — nothing new there. But every time I make a client deliriously happy, it feels like the very first time, so I’m going to celebrate! I’ve been a published writer since 1969 and a copy/content/feature writer and editor as a freelancer since 2008. (All

Drove to Seattle today for my pre-op screening. Passed it with flying colors . 30 Days… So, now the countdown begins… As soon as I got home, Lisa and I drove to Orting to do our “bike thing”– 15 miles round trip on our bikes. We do our best to ride three

My 10+ year old 18″ Envision monitor has been trying to give up the ghost for the past several days, so this morning bright and early I bought a 21″ HP model, and I love it! What a difference 1o years makes in the resolution quality of a monitor. This one is so much

Tonight I’m recalling warm Warner Bros. memories. Working there was a lot like being on the Starship Enterprise. It was a physical manifestation of IDIC (Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations) in Action! I was just lying in bed thinking about some of the people I met, knew and adored at Warner Bros. when
