May 14, 2022: The Saturday Report!

Did a little reading today, a little writing, and a little dog-walking.  It looks like winter is finally in the rearview mirror - but, to be fair, the last time we made this assumption it snowed and the temperature dropped.  Still, Akemi is cautiously optimistic that she can finally wash our winter gear and put…

May 12, 2022: Wine, cheese, cured meats, pasta, ice cream – and lots of walking!

Whew!  That was quite the wine & cheese soiree last night.  We ended up sampling 14 different cheeses, 8 different varieties of cured meats, Akemi's home baked bread, and 5 bottles of wine.  Considering only five of us were drinking, I thought we did pretty well all told. Me plate - round #1. By the…

May 10, 2022: Countdown to Wine & Cheese 2022!

In preparation for tomorrow night's wine & cheese soiree, Akemi and I spent the day shopping for - you guessed it! - wine and cheese. Apparently white is the way to go, but I couldn't resist rounding out the selection.  To be honest, I'm the further thing from a wine aficionado - but I know…

May 7, 2022: Projects update!

Weekdays.  Weekends.  It's al the same to me.  Such is the life of a freelance writer. I sent my agents that feature script last week and am expecting them to read this weekend and get back to me next week with feedback and a possible preliminary game plan.  Their response - and turnaround time -…

May 5, 2022: Starstruck! Happy Birthday, Suji!

Check out the Birthday Gal!  17 today.  Old enough to drive, yet not quite old enough to drink or buy smokes.  Still, she had a pretty good day - two walks, special treats, apple slices, and some peanut butter and jelly ice cream.  Wishing her a very happy birthday - and, hopefully, no tummy issues…

May 2, 2022: Book Club Inhumed! Script work resumed! Donuts consumed!

Yozo! No Baron's Book Club Blab Blog entry today as I, sadly, was unable to read a book last week given that I was wholly focused on my first feature screenplay in, oh, roughly three years.  Still, I'm heartened by the fact that I have 73 books under my belt some four months into 2022…
