Imzadi Publishing Accepts The Bombastic Adventures in The Arizona Desert

9/30/20 23:07 Home

Good news my dear friends, my novel was accepted by Imzadi Publishing.  I mailed the contract yesterday and based on the wail the mail has been moving in this country, the publisher should have it in two weeks.  The Bombastic Adventures in The Arizona Desert is expected to be published in July.  

The house is coming along.  I painted the other bedroom since Emma, Bella and Matt are planning to visit.  Now, it looks like it will be the Halloween weekend.  It will be the first time in three years since I slept in the same place with my kids.

Meli is working.  We are on Zoom together.  She is playing music and both of us are doing our things and yet we are together.  Earlier, I ran for 8 miles and now can feel my body slowing down and asking if it is time for bed.  Thinking about the morning light falling through the brittle leaves.  There are some maples that are still green, grasping onto the summer even in October.  Made it back home for church and I’m thinking of the miracles, praying to God for something specific, and yet I felt a little awkward, don’t put God to the test.  I am praying the spousal via 

I’d like to get back into the challenge I gave myself last year, a blog entry each day, even if they are short.  Maybe this time, I will share more poetry?  Whatever, even a stream of conscience. 

Cleaned the house.  Yesterday, I cleaned the windows and wished Meli was here to help or to keep me company.  Then today were more chores.  After a few hours or being in my sweaty clothes I took a hot shower,  the steam was flowing out the open window and the sunlight was bright in the small room, open shades, there’s no one living behind this house to peer in, so I took my naked time and got dressed.

I spoke with my brother, my sister Eileen for a few seconds, Mom and Dad and caught up for a few minutes.  And here I am listening to music my love is playing, and I am really impressed with this Spotify list. 

Reading Raymond Carver, shorts from Cathedral and Labyrinths by Jorge Luis Borges.

Thank you for reading this.
