I've posted the first part of my longest story (to date), Judith. It's a "vampire" story, and I've been told that it's a bit Anne Rice-ish. I take that as a compliment, but I can see how it may not be too, especially in the light of her latest work, "Blood and Gold" (or whatever it's called), which I haven't even finished yet because of the over-writing, generally not good writing and, amazingly, the unbelievable typos and fuck-ups by the printing (doesn't anyone use editing or proofing anymore?) Anyway, I'm still a huge Anne Rice fan, if only for what her books all meant to me when I first started reading them.
But, I digress...
What I meant to say was that I've posted the first part of Judith. If you look at it in terms of Microspft Word (in Carrier New font, 12 pt.), I've posted the first 17 pages of about 73 pages of text, so you see how much more is on the way...
Anyway, enjoy your day...

I've decided, due to some of the work I've been browsing out there on the web, to include this "journal" section on the site. Now, I'll be perfectly honest right up front, there won't be daily entries here, there may not even be weekly enties sometimes, my life does tend to re-focus often. I don't know if that makes me irresponsible, over-extended, an ADD candidate, or what, but that's how I am and for those of you who don't know me in the "real" world, I thought I'd warn you.
That said, what you probably will find here are the often wandering, often rambling, often incoherent and maybe even inconsistent thoughts that fly through my head and I feel the urge to write down. You may get me working over new story ideas. You may get my political views. You may get a rant on something that happens to me or in the news (Enron, anyone?). Right now, you're getting me after one too many margaritas at Tia's last night after work...and I haven't had my coffee, yet. So, there's a chance, albeit a small one, that this might be the only entry you ever see! I may wake up and think this is a stupid idea, like many of you might be thinking right now.
Anyway, this is going to do it for now, anything else I may decide to put up will be here later. Bye...
