September 19th is "International Talk Like a Pirate Day!" (Yes, this IS a holiday.) So, buckle your swashes and enjoy a fruity rum drink with the crew!

Q: What do you call a sunken pirate ship that trembles on the ocean floor?
A: A nervous wreck!

New chapter has been submitted for posting. I hope you enjoy it. - K

The first chapter of my new story, HUMMINGBIRD, has been submitted. I hope everyone enjoys reading it, when it posts. When the story begins, Ysabella d'Santos is a frightened 10 year old girl, and faces being sold into slavery. However, before this can happen, she is rescued and brought to a new life full of wonder and love. Lifelong friendships are forged. As an adult, she finds that she can give back to the community and people who are important to her. From the courtroom, to the barroom, follow her as she goes on a journey of self discovery. Once again, Pixel the Cat is a BIG BIG help with his editing.

I'm not sure if it is allowed for me to say or do this, and I will understand if this blog entry is removed.

Like many people here, I will go see what stories pop up in the "random selections" list. I just read something that made me cry because it was so beautiful. "I will visit her grave someday" by Harrison0978, was posted back in 2013. It's not a very long story, but it has a very big impact.

Take a moment to read it, but have a box of tissues handy.

Happy Father's Day to all the Fathers/Dads out there. And to all the "Daddies" as well.
