Writings about Ataxia, being DeafBlind, family life. The best life can offer!


Happy New Year

Hello my readers!

Welcome to 2019!  Seems a weird number: 2019, as if one is counting backwards, 22, 21, 20, 19, 18, 17.  Oh whatever!

For me, 2019 will be a year of the blog!  And, hopefully, the year of the much awaited, seldom heard of, frequently ignored completion and publication of my future best-seller, award-winning, bread-winner fictional account of a story of miscommunication gone fatally bad.

Yes, I’m talking about Ballad of a Falling Man.  I started it many times, if you troll my blogs you’ll find an introduction somewhere!  Oh what the heck, here is the link!  But, that should not stop you from trolling!

And, also yes, I am being overly positive!  Is that a tad too much?  Okay, maybe I won’t win a Peabody!  Maybe it will sell only 47 copies.  But that is 37 more than I expected!

Let’s get this rolling!

Have yourself, your family and your friends an amazing year!
