Country Cars, Trucks, and Tractors: December 2013
http://countrycarstrucksandtractors.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Country Cars, Trucks, and Tractors. Relics and restorations from the farms, fields, and boulevards or along country roads. Tuesday, December 31, 2013. The 1967 Pontiac GTO. Those fond of Pontiacs likely debate if the 1967 GTO presents the most attractive styling of this model. I'm not a fan of muscle cars in the main, but I do take a second look when a "Goat" comes into view. The 1967-1969 Plymouth Barracudas present some similarities, grill-wise. Wonder if such is a coincidence? A Feel Good Novel.

Livestock and Landscapes: Cherry Plum
http://livestockandlandscapes.blogspot.com/2015/05/cherry-plum.html
Rural scenes captured across the countryside and along country roads. Wednesday, May 6, 2015. The Cherry Plum tree in our backyard. The one my wife shook too hard while harvesting its bumper crop last year. It cracked open but a wire, a deck screw, and a few tie-down straps, and it came back this spring with hope and renewal.

Livestock and Landscapes: Appaloosa Eyeball
http://livestockandlandscapes.blogspot.com/2015/06/appaloosa-eyeball.html
Rural scenes captured across the countryside and along country roads. Wednesday, June 10, 2015. Can't decide if the glint in this fine horse's eye says "Serenity" or "Mischief". It appears it's amused at something, possibly the photographer. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Feel Good Novel: POV is
http://afeelgoodnovel.blogspot.com/2015/06/pov-is.html
A Feel Good Novel. Sunday, June 28, 2015. A writerly term for Point of View. Quite important when crafting fiction, especially. When one’s reading a novel, he or she will encounter a POV, sometimes labelled or confused with Voice. Here’s an example of third person POV and following, the first person POV. First: “I scolded myself, poking around the study of Miss Manners. Private matters here, squirreled away. Yet, those intriguing cubby holes of the roll-top lured me. Or, perhaps. Yet, those intriguing cu...
