It's A Blitz; A Blogging Blitz

In an intense, energetic, concentrated attack we blitz you. Actually that is the definition of blitz but that is not the point. I’m here to tell you a story. Where were you in May of 1977?

Well, I was at the drive-in not knowing my baby sister was being born. Back then there were no cell phones or pagers, if you missed it, you missed it. Now I hear you asking, “What was so important you would miss you sisters birth?”

Sunday's Ripples; Are yours in Color?

There by the fountain pond, in a beautiful tree lined park sat a woman. She had come to the park to escape the dullness of her life. “Get out be alive,” she thought but the dullness only jaded her view.  Looking out into the vast landscape her eyes found the pond. “Where has all my color gone?”

She gazed deep with in the water, as if the pool of liquid held a clue. The deeper she stared, the darker the water grew. “You hold no color, only fathoms on my soul,” she cried. “Where is my color?” again she asked.

Alex J. Cavanaugh.. This is For You

In honor of my fellow blogger Alex J. Cavanaugh I am dedicating this post to him. I am not doing this for his lovely contest, where you may enter to win a copy of his latest book. No, I am doing this because he has been so kind as to follow and comment on my blog, he has become part of my blog family. So, we do help family members don't we?

Alex is a Sci-Fi writer on a journey of discovery. You never know what you might discover over at Alex's place; books, movies, music, he covers many things there and is always insightful. I love his guitar and his sense of humor along with the fact he thought me worthy of following. Hop on over and check him out, hopefully at the end of this post, you will be able to watch the trailer to his new book. (Sorry Alex, I was to tired to figure out how to make it fit in the column.)

To ALL my other followers, most of whom are new, I wish to also at this time extend my deepest appreciation. You have bestowed on me a large dose of confidence, made me feel as though I can still do something right. The act of following someone or leaving a comment should never be taken for granted and I want you to know I do not. For being a part of my blogging journey I owe you a huge thank you, THANK YOU. You do not go unnoticed.

Now without further ado, Alex's book trailer. Enjoy!
