When might be the last time you browsed through the zillions of available titles on Smashwords, Kobo, Diesel, Amazon or any of the myriad of other places where unknown and independent writers put their stuff? Recently? It's been a...

Xavier Bage I couldn't agree more. There are unknown gems in the heap and perhaps they will never be famous and rich!

Lenny Miller Awesome. Thanks for the tip. I think I found myself one of those gems. Yeah, true. Great talent can be hidden within self-published, less popular works. I like how you describe it and have found a liking for it. :D As a small-time writer...

I sometimes wonder how much more productive my life would be without screen time. Internet, computers, smartphones and Netflix included in screen time. Life is definately easier with technology. But does it make us happy?

To begin, I'm not any sort of competitive player. However, I've been playing since I was in my teens (now in my 50's) and once I get the game under way, I have better luck in spotting some positions and pins and such I can take...

Connie I don't like playing against people who lose their queen just to take mine, LOL! The computer does that, and it is very frustrating. As far as opening moves, I don't really have any suggestions. I always open with the king pawn. Then usually I try to get my...

When I go to the town centre, I walk through a park. Near a kiosk and a small building with loos/bathrooms are two chessboards (I'm using this term although it's wrong because there are no wooden boards but square slabs of black...

I love music and basically listen to all genres. For a while now I've been thinking about which albums do I consider the 10 best of all time. Right now I'm leaning towards Neil Diamond's Hot August Night and Bob Dylan's Highway 61...

Well now, when you are a newbie the first question always is- what should I write about? As a freelance writer, I always seem to have plenty to say and plenty to write about. So I decided to use my first post as an introduction to...

Mistyck Moon Thank you Roddy! We did sell the van because we could not afford to get it fixed and we are looking for a class B or class C RV that we can pay cash for and fix it up our way. I will be sharing pictures of my time in Yellowstone and Death Valley and the...

snowy @RJamesDryer Well far safer is probably a overstatement. Some say it causes a certain type of lung disease from inhaling. I used to write articles about vaping. You could not use the word "safe" when it came to vaping.

Mistyck Moon I am not a smoker and have never smoked. But I am also fascinated by the vaping fad. I think if it helps people stop smoking then its is great. But I have seen many who vape and still smoke as well. I find the whole mindset quite interesting.

Nick R Thomas I know a guy who was a very heavy smoker and then took up vaping. He has become a real advocate for it and even attends vapers' conferences. Over the years I have worked with some colleagues who were such heavy smokers that I couldn't imagine vaping working...

snowy I don't think vaping is safe, but I personally know a couple of people who were smokers and vaping allowed them to quit, all in all, it is probably a bit better.
