After the last post, I had a thought. ChatGPT isn’t that great at coming up with a story, but what if you gave it an outline? I wanted a story that had an open ending. Mostly I decided that anything I use AI for I’ll put it up for free (details, including link below). So…
Is this the Beginning of the End for Writers?
I’ve had ChatGPT play CLOSAT. If you never heard of CLOSAT (acronym for Character, Location, Object (of contention) Situation (triggering) Action, Theme), it’s a game that could help encourage writing, especially if you are struggling to come up with any new ideas. You can check out my first post on the game here. A few…
That Took Long Enough
I finally finished the edits to “The Gathering.” My daughter is currently working on the cover, and I’m taking a couple of days off before rereading it to do another slew of minor edits before formatting it. Remember when a week seemed like forever? We are already at the end of the first month of…
Getting started (late) in the New Year
It seems to happen consistently. The beginning of the year, and an illness takes hold, making me postpone everything I wanted to start, including recording a video a day… Except that’s not the real reason I stopped two videos in.

I believe this would help keep miscommunication-based fight to a minimum, help people with mental disabilities (like ADHD and schizophrenia). And the ability to connect to the internet at will sounds awesome….
Stupid Ideas can lead to Good ones
… Or so I’m told.
Adventures in shopping locally: Beef
My husband and I wanted to fill our freezer with beef. He finally fixed it enough for us to use. The cover still needs a replacement seal, but since it’s winter, we’re not worried about energy loss. A couple of years ago, we tried the Meat Market west of Tyler. The meat was great, but…
Trash Taste Take on the American People
“They [the media] are doing you dirty.” – Connor. I love watching non-Americans who are not Journalists talk about the US. Their perception is a lot more down-to-earth. They discuss their visit to the US and one racist encounter – in Detroit.
What new things to expect?
I woke up feeling better, but my back still gets stiff every time I sit for long periods of time. Reaching down for anything is out of the question. I have been taking this downtime to make plans and hash ideas. One thing I put on my to do list is to change my blog…
