Winter blues

MikeNelson9 Comments

It’s been an interesting last few months. I finished “The Deathbed Confessions” and looked around to see what was next. The answer was not nothing, it was ‘I don’t know’.

I usually have a let down after I finish writing a book and it takes a month or two to get over. Because I have ADHD I can usually substitute another activity, i.e., make up a ‘necessary’ home project that I can lose interest in when it’s half-way finished, or make a wood project out in the shop, but not this time. Besides it’s too cold out in the shop these days.

Then I got Covid, which led to pneumonia and I lost an entire month feeling sorry for myself. Now finally, I’m coming out of it and it’s time I’m told to get back to work. Thank you all for your patience. I’m interested to see what the next few months has to offer.

5 years of bliss

I remember many times in my life, both young and old, when my elders would attempt to impart wisdom upon me.  It usually came in different forms.  Occasionally, it came while they cradled an injured limb of mine.  “Trying to hurry causes accidents.” Or after they had just administered a […]

Memories of Christmas

Aged in the mileage of life They place me in the comfortable chair in the corner. Present but only as wallpaper on this Christmas day. Out of the way, an observer of the vigor of their youth,             Safely beyond the chaos of bright wrapping paper flung in haste,                         […]

Readin’ and Writin’

                As the character, Barney Fife, Don Knotts once uttered some incredible wisdom.  When asked if he was afraid, he replied; “There’s nothin’ to fear but fear itself—and that’s what I got—fear itself!”  I’ve always thought that was a statement of profound wisdom.  Incredibly simple, incredibly true most of time.  […]

Country roads

I drive down country roads, far from scheduled time and harried people.  The road, bordered by 3-strand barbed wire fence that defines pasture and contains the placid cattle that walk the same cow path that their predecessors walked, barn to pasture, pasture to barn.  These trails, so worn that they […]

Wisdom of Age

The world glides past, beyond my closed window and door It’s pace unchecked by my age and infirm. The sound vibrant with worldly life mocks my lust For peace And lost youth. But the current is now too swift For one such as I to swim Or be swept on […]

He’s had a good day

In the sun-bright room, he stood at the window. Cradling his favorite stuffed toy, he idly caressed its ears as he gazed out into the summer heat. We were late—again                But it only mattered to me He would be patient, he didn’t mind                He would not watch the […]

Quinn

Yesterday, I sent two different manuscripts to the publisher. After a recent health scare, I decided it was time to stop dragging my feet and get to work, so I did. I had two very distinct and different ideas for stories. One was to write in the fantasy genre that […]

Recalling the Self

Recovering the Self          In many ways, my life has dictated the course of my writing.  I have held many occupations over my seventy-four years.  I have worked on six of the seven continents and visited all fifty states.  I’ve worked as a skilled criminal, a machinist, a soldier, an […]
