Welcome to Thursday Doors! This is a weekly challenge for people who love doors and architecture to come together to admire and share their favorite door photos, drawings, or other images or stories from around the world. If you’d like to join us, simply create your own Thursday Doors post each (or any) week and then share a link to your post in the comments below, anytime between 12:01 am Thursday morning and Saturday noon (North American eastern time). If you like, you can add our badge to your post.

I’m trying to keep these posts low on text during May for two reasons. One, I have announcements related to the Thursday Doors Writing Challenge (TDWC). Two, I had an entry this week that which was quite a bit of reading. I hope to have another entry on Monday, maybe not as long, but more than a normal week.
So, today’s doors are the more doors from Simsbury, Connecticut, and some doors I gathered on the way to and from Simsbury. Actually, although not important, Simsbury is a town I travel through on my way to our daughter’s place when I’m trying to avoid the highway.
Last week, I had a picture of an odd building. i mentioned wanting to learn more about it. It’s part of the Simsbury Historical Society campus. It’s shown and described in the photos below.


Regarding the Writing Challenge. We have ten very good entries, and more on the way, I’m told.There’s still time to join us. So far, we have poetry, short stories and blog posts. That’s the best part of TDWC–anything goes. Visit the challenge page. Find a door that inspires you and write something. In addition to the fun of participating in the challenge, you benefit from the promotion around the TDWC. Last I checked, there have been almost 70 clicks on the links to the entries list at the challenge page, and I will be promoting it throughout May and into June.
To read the entries that have been written, and / or to pick a door and start writing, check out the TDWC Page.

All five of my current books are now available in audio book form thanks to Amazon KDP’s Virtual Voice process. The voice is AI generated, but I can honestly say, it’s pretty darn good. The audio books are reasonably priced (all below $7 US) and, if you already own the Kindle version and want to add an audio version, you can do that for $1.99. There is a five-minute sample on the book page for each book. If you’re interested, click on any of the Dreamer’s Alliance book links below the image or on the link below for my latest book.
