Senseless acts

I don’t like to watch the news and I don’t read the newspaper.  I figure if something is really newsworthy and important I will find out about it somehow through different means.  Why?  Years ago I decided I no longer wanted in my life the kind of negativity that the news media promotes.  Watching and [...]

Mother’s Day

by A.J. Llewellyn
It’s Mother’s Day again, my least favorite ‘holiday’ of the year. It’s a terrible reminder that I don’t have a mother. I lost her when I was six to the ravages of colon cancer. This time last year, I blogged about my favorite memory of her, which was waking up in the middle [...]

Changing How We Write

Actually it changed years ago with advent of home computers. It’s in the past few months I’ve seen what seems to me to be more changes. Maybe it’s because for the last ten years I drove to work (no public transportation) and now I’m back on the bus.
I hated writing in school. It seemed like [...]

Happy Friday

Hello everybody
I am looking forward toward the monthly chat that will be held all day, this coming Sunday. I will be giving away my books, One Dangerous Woman, along with my Xmas book, Ferver Black’s Christmas Wish along with its sequel, Ferver Black–Back to the Darkness.
I may have to ask my friend Desiree De Cleeves [...]

A slippery slope

Good Morning everyone,
I want to start this post off with an apology. I missed my blogging day last week, simply because I forgot. I really don’t have an excuse except that I lost track of the days last week.
So, I was surfing the internet this morning while I tried to figure out what I wanted [...]

Copyrights

As a lot of you know, I work in a photo lab as my day job. Note, I do have a day job which means my writing income does not support me. I wish…
There are many different types of copyrights, photo, literary, musical and other types of media. Even owner’s manuals for different brands of [...]

The Asthma Monster

Please excuse the lateness of this post, things have been going crazy around my house. While chaos is nothing new in the Hecht household things have been even more fun lately. It all started Thursday when my daughter came home from school sick. She had that look all kids get when they’re ill. The [...]

Happy Anny & Contest!

Amazing how time flies!  I’ve been published now for a year.  Wow.  Since that time I’ve had several stories released at eXtasy Books and Devine Destinies.  My first book which was released on May 1, 2008 was Deliverance.  It was the first book in the Si’Ludo Sisters series and received some really great reviews.  Feel [...]

Love Beyond Death

By A.J. Llewellyn
 
I took my precious dog Venus for a late, final walk for the evening last night. I’d had a long, productive day and I always enjoy our last walk. The pavement outside has usually just been watered and Venus loves to put her nose to everything, picking up every fresh scent. A few [...]

Living in Mayberry

The name of the city where live isn’t Mayberry but we’ve been compared to it. Even at 50,000 - 55,000 residents, we still have the flavor of a small town and I like it.
Back when I worked at the police department, under the old chief who was pretty awesome, the motto was “no call too [...]
