By George! They’re on His “Manbits”
The year 1829 closed with little of His Majesty’s situation changed. This was as he preferred it. He still dodged official business. Indeed, he would go so far as to ask parliament to appoint someone to act and sign papers in his name. Parliament told him that the only way they could legally do so would be with reports from His Majesty’s doctors that he was beyond help. Such reports would have to made public. You know, like the situation […]
Check out my Cover Art
What do you think? Frankly, I’m a little disappointed. Even though I’d heard many, many authors complain about how little control they had over their covers, and knew they also received information request sheets from the art department, when I got mine, I dared imagine what kind of cover I would like.

Suzie’s House 136: Pants First
Good thing he automatically put his pants on first, or it would have been really, really embarrassing when Ben walking into the room with Lisa. “Oh! Oh, I’m so sorry.” Lisa went bright red. She put her hand to her face like she’d seen something she shouldn’t have. His BVDs maybe?
Ashes
When Beth entered the room, the urn full of ashes sitting on the mantle piece chattered. Mother. Never could stop telling her how to live her life. Beth set the urn more firmly on the mantle, muttering, “Stupid trains.” She left the room. The urn shook and moved, edging toward a fall. There were no trains. Click on picture to go to hub.
