Cloister-Case


Alas, it is time for me to shut this down for awhile.  For I just don’t have enough energy to accomplish all that I have been given to do, with one book being yet to reach fruition while others are in desperate need of some more pruning.  Therefore, I need to stop publishing “stuff” here.

As instructed, I have already taken down the books on the Amazon Kindle platform in favor of making them available as a free PDF when they are finished.  No, I have not been assured that they will be any more palatable to the tastes of most, but at least they should be a little more grammatically-correct to those allergic to incorrectness.

Hopefully, I will be back at adding to this mess here in 2-3 months, but don’t think that I am disappearing from cyberspace altogether.  Oh no, I would not want you-all to forget about me.  So, I will be leaving comments here and there from time to time.

 Yeah, that’s actually me as I now am up there on the left.  Be assured that it is out of great concern for the emotional well-being of all of the lovely lasses, who will be surely missing my “stuff” so desperately that I included the picture.  I am sorry for not letting them down easier, but I figured it would be better to make it clear that I really don’t look like [Sam Elliott] or [Tom Selleck].  Yeah, I suppose I could have not made it so abundantly clear.  Sigh.

 P.S.: Just in case you are wondering how Arlynda can stand to be around me, I will let you in on the secret to my romantic success.  Okay, also wearing a festive garland of lettuce leaves and tomato slices most certainly doesn’t hurt.  (TMI?)

    Alack and alas, indeed! But best wishes and good luck! And great that you will be checking in periodically. I sincerely hope that everything goes very well for you and Arlynda, bacon body spray notwithstanding.

    Well, that's disappointing. I'll be keeping a check on you...and the way time flies of late...you'll be back in no time at all.

    Take good care, the both of you. :)

    Bacon body spray, I should have expected that one from you :) So apparently the attraction for Arlynda is that you remind her of a BLT......LOL
    Don't stay away too long, I need your comments to keep me laughing

      Thanks for stopping by, my dear Ann!!! It was brought to my attention that it might be a little too much to reveal how we experiment with different combinations of condiments to spice things up from time to time.

    Hello Jerry!:) Oh dear, just as I get back to blogging you are leaving. I'm sorry I am so tardy in my visit to you, but when I took a three months break from blogging, I only went to my computer twice, and made no visits at all. Thank you for including "Breathtaking" on your Sunday Drive. Your visit was, appreciated.

    Take care, keep well, and return with renewed energy
    Happy New Year.

      Thanks for stopping by, my dear Rick!!! It's ironic that you mention humor, for most of the new book is actually rather dark. Hopefully, it will be finished soon.

    Jerry, I am sorry that you're closing for the time being. I haven't been visiting blogs as much as usual but I always feel kind of disappointed if when I finally DO visit, my favourite bloggers haven't posted or are taking a blog break. I will look out on my feed for when you get back!

Since the Blogger spam filter has been found sorely lacking lately, I will start moderating comments. Be assured that I am only interested in deleting spam. So, if you feel a need to take me to task over something—even anonymously, go ahead and let 'er rip, and I will publish it as soon as I can.
