CANCER RECOVERY: ONE MAIN KEY

I’ve got a serious cancer recovery question in the vein of what came first, the chicken or the egg, after reading this. Maybe this isn’t the right place to ask, but come on blogosphere. The BBC reports, “HPV vaccine linked to ‘dramatic’ drop in cervical disease.” The next research I want to see is a […]

BLOG PLATFORM, WRITER PLATFORM, LAUNCHES MEMOIR

We’ve got a joke, or more accurately my blog efforts get ridiculed, around the keyboard. Goes like this: “Why do you always write about yourself, or put yourself into every post?” I answer by spelling memoir, as in memoir blogger. “M-e … m-o-i-r. You can’t spell memoir without M and E.” Hilarity is supposed to […]

TONY ROMO WRITNG COACH

    Tony Romo is getting great press as an NFL color commentator. His MVP showing in the AFC title game earned him the sort of career extension anyone would hope for. And he’s a second year guy in the booth. What if Tony Romo was a writing coach, as good a writing coach as […]

FAKE NEWS SHARED BY BABY BOOMERS, BUT WHY?

    For online fans of social media there’s a drumbeat across many platforms saying the same thing: Baby boomers share more fake news than any other demographic. The usual cutoff age is sixty five, so I’ve got another year before I hit that wall. If you are a boomer I’ve got a question: Do […]

SOCIAL MEDIA SUPER STAR IN THE WINGS

    News reports about social media and the ‘new awareness’ we all need to observe will never keep grandma from posting new baby pictures. ButI think I get the point of the warning. From my census training I learned how to gather visual evidence at the door if a citizen didn’t want to interact […]

Google Blog Search, Lessons Learned And Ignored, But Maybe It Was Me?

    What do you get when ‘mayan calendar’ is the number 1 search term on any blog that isn’t related to the Mayan Calandar?   I don’t want to talk about it. Yes, I do.   How about ‘sniper equipment’ in the number two spot? Must be a military site, or a kook site, […]

Cultural Exchange Without Leaving Home

  Last night my cultural exchange student, better said as ‘our’ cultural exchange student, prepared dinner for seven.   And the kid can cook.   I know the difference when someone mails it in from the kitchen. How? Because someone I know tried doing it for years.   Me.   Now I’m much better and […]

Today Is A Special Day For Someone, What’s Your Day Like

  Coaches have had a grand time reminding their athletes that, “There’s someone somewhere training just as hard as you. Time to step it up.”   They say this right after you’ve had a special day of success so you won’t let it go to your head too fast.   Or, “Someone is training harder […]

MEMOIR BLOGGER TALKS TO WRITER, GETS LOST

What’s the difference between successful books and the others? Books that get read and those that just get bought?   Empathy. Do you feel it? Does the writer make you feel it? Empathy and suspense, enough suspense to turn the page.   I met a writer, which is who I’d expect meet in a writers […]

BLOG TRAFFIC: CLICK THROUGH READER CAN’T GET NO SATISFACTION

    Does blog traffic show up unexpected? What makes readers stay and look around once they do find you on accident?   First, it’s not an accident. At least blog traffic shouldn’t be accidental. That’s why we buy and install Genesis framework on a wordpress platform with a News theme from Studio Press.   […]
