It Was Just A Life

Welcome!  And yes, everybody does, myself included. So don't argue.

At the bottom of the page I wished everyone Happy Holidays, and said I would see them in 2008.

Well, today is October 22, 2008.  Can we just say that the main thrust of the year 2008 was too wild a ride to really do much beyond the occasional post on on the blogs and leave it at that?

Thanks.

At this point, most of the writing is going to be on the blogs, so if you are interested in the rather humorous day to day working and living with Tomas Hradcky, Independent Film Composer and myself, as music c0-producer go to:

Partners on a Dime

If you are interested in listening to Tomas Hradcky's music or watching some of his film clips, go to:

Tomas Hradcky

If you want to wrangle around politics, go to:

What Happened?!

And if you are interested in a all American chicken soup mixture of humor, life and ranting, go to:

Bobby D. the Crow

The blogs are where all of  the writing action is right now - there will be no book reviews up for a while, and unfortunately, the biography of Warren King is going to be dormant for quite some time, as both myself and my subject have gone through some serious physical trauma (me) and health problems (him).

So hey!  It is nice to be back, and right now, it is great to be alive. My hope for anyone who visits this page is that they are not succumbing to fear, and are grateful for every day they draw a peaceful breath.

If you wish to e-mail me directly, the contact link is at the bottom of the page, righthand corner.

THE SPRINKLES OF THIS AND THAT FROM LAST YEAR, BELOW

*** October 17th, 2007***



A new short story in the "Short Stories" section.   I know, where else would it be, must this woman constantly state the obvious?  Well, yes, because I am stumbling around this web page business as if I owed the Mafia money and they just took it out on my fingers.  Redundancy is my only reality in this realm. 

And just a note, if you like to read what I write, there is almost always something new on one of the blogs.  It would be a great help if you noticed grammar and punctuation errors - I definitely welcome error feedback, as I am usually trying to write as fast as my brain is shouting, and a poor comma doesn't stand a chance in that boxing ring.

See you soon!

Also,  added a few more pages - William A. Mahan is my father, and he gets his own
page.  I do not even know where to begin with him - unique character, that guy.

A new addition on the William A. Mahan page.  He is very much on my mind today, probably because I received my husband Abel Jaramillo's ashes on Halloween night, twelve years ago, and in East Los Angeles, November 1st and 2nd are All Saints Day, and the Day of the Dead - much more the true Halloween spirit than the white or trying to be white folks celebrate it. Just my opinion, anyway. And the kids are pretty cute.....BUT
Day of the Dead is about honoring your deceased family.  Maybe I will go tomorrow, and tell you about it.

Thanks for visiting!

Just discovered Veracifier.  Wow.




December 7th, 2007


Well, we are at the end of the year.  I have added a few links on the links page, and a short story, not written by me, will be coming to the William Allen Mahan page, and memoirs, well, at this point, what is new is how I feel about the whole idea here at the end of 2007.

Happy Holidays everybody.  I will be back on this page in 2008.
