How much is too much? Anything is OK in moderation, I’ve heard. Think about that. Anything? Of course, we don’t take that saying literally. If we did, there would be a lot less of us around. There are somethings that I enjoy, that if I enjoyed them too much, wouldn’t be enjoyable anymore. The firstContinue reading “Moderation”

Funny Fridays: When Does This Become That?
I started this a few weeks ago, so now I feel compelled to come up with something to amuse readers each week. As you may have noticed before in some of my earlier posts, I have an odd sense of humor, which borders on the surreal at times. If this is your first time here,Continue reading “Funny Fridays: When Does This Become That?”
Thursday Thoughts: Poetic License
Thursday Thoughts vs. Thursday Ideas. Why do we like alliteration? Probably the same reason that we get annoyed when the gas pump goes to $20.01. We manipulate language, like music, to create a pleasing sound. Kids love saying rhymes, lyrics and poems usually rhyme, and when they don’t, it can be a bit unsettling. ItContinue reading “Thursday Thoughts: Poetic License”
Creations from Quarantine
Today I am going to share some of the poems that I wrote this year. Most writing, like music, art, and all the other expressions are meant to be shared-I say most because there are some on my creations that are just for me to enjoy. 2020 is a year that will not be forgotten,Continue reading “Creations from Quarantine”

I don’t want to give away any clues, but most of my desks in elementary school still had holes in the upperContinue reading “Things I used to…draw”

Some examples: I think that I’m a funny person. I like to make people laugh. I also haveContinue reading “Miniscule Mondays”
Funny Fridays: Humor/Humour
I like to think of myself as a humorist/satirist. Making people laugh was a goal of mine from a young age. Many of my stories, blogs, and poems have a humorous tone to them. I’ll start this weekly segment with some reposts of my writings. Humor/Humour What is funny? Anything that makes you laugh, IContinue reading “Funny Fridays: Humor/Humour”
Interview, Part II: Leon Stevens, Reader, Interviews Leon Stevens, Author
I have done a few interviews on some book blogs this year and have always enjoyed it. But then I thought, what would I say in an interview as a reader? Solution? Interview myself! So I did. As you can see, this is Part II, where I interview myself as an author this time. LeonContinue reading “Interview, Part II: Leon Stevens, Reader, Interviews Leon Stevens, Author”
Why I Write
I sent this to my newsletter subscribers earlier in October: I want to thank you for taking part in my writing journey. Writers write to share their ideas, visions, and emotions, and I hope that you find my weekly rambles entertaining. I write in a lot of different styles, which may or may not be the best wayContinue reading “Why I Write”
