Spam, wonderful spam

Spam.
It used to be that when we heard this work we thought of a canned meat.
The makers of spam should sue the internet, probably Al Gore since he created it. Who turned this word into a bad one?

  • Progress on Novel #3

    I discovered this neat little widget by browsing onto another writer's blog. I thought I might use it to track the progress of my novel--to see if it helps keep me on track.
    When a burglary goes awry, the thief ends up with an orphan...and a whole lot of trouble.

  • About the picture

    The picture at the top of my blog was taken while I was the editor at The Piggott Times, a small weekly newspaper in Piggott, Ark. You'll note on the bookshelves behind me at the bottom right, a "Chuck E Cheese" picture of me with my daughter, Brittany. Just to the left of that shelf, you'll notice my old Linguistics textbook--Dr. Foster would be proud. On the shelf above that, it is difficult to see, but an Arkansas Razorback "hog hat" sits proudly. It is one of the originals! On the shelf to the left of that is a book on Lincoln--I'm continually trying to enlighten folks as to the evils of this former U.S. President. You'll also notice the fan. The publisher was too cheap to spring for decent air conditioning, and in the hot summer months it was a literal sweatshop.
