I've been looking through both of my journals and I am stymied. I have only seen one entry on my friends list. I know I have been remiss in not posting but, heck, that's what is expected of all us shy and aging recluses. I must also admit that I haven't written anything much at all, especially erotica.

I don't think I've ever gotten over that feeling of apprehension just before posting an entry.

I have a couple of things I want to post about, one being a memoriam for my Uncle Roy who passed away last week. I have been trying to compose that post but I just can't find the words or decide which stories to tell and what to leave out. I will tell that story in due time ( Read more... )

Wht do you do when one of your friends has her first book up on Amazon? You get all your other friends to buy a copy, or go have a look. I at least want to recommend the book. I bought an ebook copy and I can recommend it as a very good read. It's a book for young people, dealing with young people's issues. Go have a look, buy a copy and read. ( Read more... )
