This week’s prompt is ‘Past, Present, Future.’ My song does not contain these words per se, but enough of the lyrics are about what has happened earlier in your life and about your personal future. Why else would you need to ‘design your universe?’ I chose this song because I …
Audiobooks have intrigued me for years, so I jumped at the opportunity to have some of my books transformed into audiobooks by Wordwooze Publishing. However, now that I am in the short story business, I didn’t know how to solve it. I don’t like my own voice and accent enough …
Listen to this post: Last week I had a mini-epiphany. Not a big one like when I realized that I, too, would one day become a sixteen-year-old. Yes, I clearly remember realizing that. Or when I decided to dedicate my life to sex, at least writing about it and making …
