Haiku – 6/25/2020
A voice stretches far
Reaches out into the world
Opinions abound

My friends and I have started doing a Podcast together once a week and then I got the fool hearted idea to do one on my own. Be forewarned, I relate my voice to an old shoe. It is nothing spectacular at all. The links below will lead you to both of them.
Audible Extacy Blog (me and my friends): Currently we are deep diving Van Halen albums.
Here is the link: anchor.fm/theaudibleextacypodcast
Songs You Don’t Know by Heart (yours truly): This Podcast is unearthing the deep cuts of Jimmy Buffett.

Haiku – 6/24/2020
Cat purring softly
Lying in the windowsill
Gentle life of ease

Cat in the window
Watching the world move outside
Eyes filled with wonder

And in case you need a laugh today.

Bright red eyes watching
Studying its nice warm prey
The beast stands, waiting

Day starting to turn
Edging slowly into night
Time for it to feed

Saturday morning
Looking at the sharp grey sky
Hoping for sunshine

Sipping on coffee
Waiting for caffeination
Mental wakefulness

Tiny baby bird
Singing and chirping loudly
Freedom from the nest

Moisture like a thin wet veil
Covering the day

Volcanic mountains climbing
Salty air whispers

Muggy grey morning
Dark, threatening clouds linger
A new day begins

This picture came across my Nest Hub Device this morning and it stopped me for a moment. As I stared at it this Haiku started to form. Inspiration comes at the most unusual of times. And if you ever thought about a smart device you should start with the Nest Hub. Of all the Devices I have owned (and I have tried many from Google and Amazon) this is currently my favorite. That’s it. You are now free to move around the blog.

Haiku – 6/2/2020
It crawled from the sand
Filled with evil intentions
Ready to consume

I just released a new cover for my short story “The Living Sand” and it is a terrifying one. It really fits the story so much better than the one I had attached to it. The old cover (below) looks more like a kids story – one where kids go on adventures by the sea shore and hunt for pirates and buried treasure. The Living Sand is nothing like that. Two boys discover a beach and find a warning – create life in the sand and life it will have. Well, they do just that and chaos ensues. That is why the new cover works so well. That creature in the picture looks like something brought up from the depths of hell. Anyway, if you want to read it or review it check out the information at the bottom of the page. You are now free to move around the blog.
If you want a copy here are two ways to get it:
- Send me an email: atothewr@gmail.com. In the header put: I would love to review The Living Sand. Then let me know what you use to read ebooks: Kindle or Something Else. I will send it to you and all I ask is for you to give me a fair and honest review.
- If you are able to buy it and do want to support me the links to purchase the story are posted below.

A soft brown squirrel
Rustling and hopping around
Searching for some food

A swinging hammock
Rocking gently with the breeze
Ocean in motion

Did you hear?
You didn’t.
Well, the pirate king has a new album out. I am of course talking about Jimmy Buffett and it is a great one from start to finish. Anybody stuck inside and needing a break listen to it today.

A peek of sunshine
Washing away the thick grey
Momentarily
