Rules Are Meant to Be… – #JusJoJan

Broken and bent, that’s what I always say. Actually, I tend to say: “…rules are rules. Until you can change them, follow them.” But, that’s the boring day-to-day me talking, not the rule-breaking-damn-the-torpedoes me who wishes he did radical things. So, what rules(s) am I breaking and bending? Well, I’m either breaking the “I don’t... Continue Reading →

No Power, No Pics, No Pens

I mentioned last week that our daughter Faith and I had toured the Mark Twain House in nearby Hartford, CT. I think I said something about an event, but I know I didn’t explain what that event was. It was an opportunity to write for three hours in the library of the Mark Twain House.... Continue Reading →

Maybe Less Random Than I Planned

I’ve been debating whether or not to publish this post for quite some time. The tag line mentions “Random Thoughts” but there seems to be a well-established pattern. Also, there seems to be some confusion. I’ve answered questions in response to comments, in response to emails (yes NoFacilities has an inbox at gmail dot com)... Continue Reading →

Schedule – Pattern – Rut?

After reading Deborah Drucker’s recent post: “Appointment to Write,” she and I exchanged a few comments. I mentioned: "I am plodding along the same path/rut I’ve been in." It probably wasn’t the best choice of words, but Deborah's response got me thinking about schedules and habits and ruts and where they all intersect. I'm not... Continue Reading →

Watch the Gap

I didn't participate in SoCS and I miss the permission to ramble on. I was on the road last week, and, as often happens I'm caught with a hole in the schedule. I wrote the posts for last Wednesday and Thursday before I left. I wrote Saturday’s post in the airport and I gathered ideas... Continue Reading →

The Novels of English 202

When I receive Linda’s SoCS prompt has a lot to do with how I respond to the challenge. That’s because Linda says that, in addition to not editing, there should be minimal planning in our responses. That’s harder to do than Linda thinks, especially when I look at the prompt during lunch on a work... Continue Reading →
