PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING SEPTEMBER 14, 2024

 Maybe it's my age or flair for nostalgia, but I remember Saturday mornings past when all I did was just sit in front of the television and watch the various animated offerings between the three (yes, only three back then) networks of the day: ABC, CBS and NBC.

Times have seriously changed over the years. There are a LOT more channels than there ever used to be but far less cartoons to watch.

Then again, my Saturday yesterday was mostly housework when I wasn't trying to post THE WEEK IN REVIEW for The Free Choice E-zine.

In any event, I have managed to get some writing done on SOLITAIRE 2: THE AGENDA this past week when I wasn't addressing and dealing with other obligations.

Although I'm still on Chapter 32 at the moment, I'm well into the 55,000+ word neighborhood and another major action sequence.

Wish I could say more, but after my author's bio there IS a sneak peak of the work in progress at the end of CODE NAME: INTREPID CLASSIFIED, VOLUME 3, available in print and e-book on Amazon. (Nice lead in, huh? 😉)

With “Storm Front” by series creator Robert J. Mendenhall, John L. French's “Operation Wayback”, Brian K. Lowe's  “The Alpine Affair”, Brian K. Morris'  “Heavenly Unbound”, James Palmer's  “Feat of Clay” and my story “Operation Colossus”.

Lot of adventurous great reading there.

Better get back to writing now.

Take care.

STAY SAFE!

And I'll see you around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING SEPTEMBER 14, 2019

It's Deja Vu. AGAIN!

I initially thought I was being a bit sarcastic when I subtitled last week's Progress Report ♫If it

weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all,♫ which is also a line from an old Hee Haw routine.

However life seemed to have other ideas, for I not only had to deal with everything I was originally aware of that might interfere with chances to write, but by Wednesday I also wound up with a nasty head cold too!

Of course, I did not set out to get a head cold.

No one in their right mind does that, and I am certainly sane.

But regardless of what I wanted, I got one anyway. 😡

The sinus pressure alone kept me from wearing my reading glasses most of the time, which also kept me from seeing computer screens, the newspaper, etc.

So... no writing. 😢

I am thankfully feeling better now.

Hopefully by tomorrow I can sit at the computer long enough to seriously get back to writing.

It was all I could do yesterday to attempt taking care of The Free Choice E-zine as its Editor-In-Chief.

In any event, take care and I'll see you around the Internet.
