Monday Morning Musings

Honestly. I have made every attempt to be politically correct over the past year. I have tried to avoid demeaning remarks and cheap shots. After all, my intent is to entertain and not provoke or inflame. I saw a comment on Facebook on the weekend that caught my eye. A friend from Halifax was expressing disgust and outrage at the level of discourse from our provincial politicians who are in the throes of an election. The negative advertising which is so pervasive in the United States has crept into Canadian politics and it’s not going down so well. When I saw the comment I felt I had to weigh in so I immediately penned a new story called “Playing in the Mud.” Coming soon.
I was at a family dinner yesterday and heard a story that I thought was hilarious. It was about a couple who were going through an acrimonious divorce. That’s no laughing matter but when it came to dividing assets, they reached an impasse over the piano. “Playing the Same Tune” takes a look at what happened to the piano. Not an easy thing to divide.
I have submitted the last of my stories to the editor of my book and we’re still hoping to publish in late October. In addition to the paperback version, I am hoping to make it available as an e-book.
I am also working with a web designer and you should see a new look in the not too distant future.
Phil and I did a dry run of our upcoming show at a local senior’s apartment building this past Thursday. We had a great turnout and were well received. I have a few surprises up my sleeve for the big event.
Have a great week.
