Brief insights into my writing world. |
|
I started my blog in June 2016, intending to have a place to get my stories in the hands of readers. I started with one follower -- my wife. I post a daily quote, as well as short stories and vignettes. Alas, current events pull my attention and I've added current events to the mix. You can find my Tavern Tales at: https://jjshaun.com/ Enjoy! |
| First Reader and I spent the last couple of weeks on the road. We traveled to Central California to attend my 😳 50th high school reunion. Because I prefer to drive across our beautiful country, we packed the car, picked up a friend (and former classmate) on the way out of Colorado, and hit the rowdy road. ~~~ Read the post and see the pictures at Revisiting the Past  |
| It’s been five years since the Cameron Peak Fire ravaged our neighborhood and stole our home. Barely half of us who lost homes have rebuilt. Some decided it wasn’t worth it or they were too old to start over rebuilding in a wildfire zone, so they moved. A few survivors sold their properties and left our mountain community. A couple of folks have since passed. ~~~ Read the full post at Rebuilding the Dream: Five Years Later |
| Here is another story I wrote for a writing contest. This time, I needed to use these phrases in the story: a dog barked; the salt was tipped over; an empty bird feeder; sound of wind chimes; the mailbox was full. ~~~ Read the story at The Old House . |
| Here’s a story to start the month of October out right. What’s really out in the woods? ~~~ Read the story at Whispers on the Wind |

, but my laptop's running 10. I suppose I should do something about it... but I didn't earn those Procrastination MBs by taking the bull by the horns (which, to be honest, sounds more than a little dangerous).
