RUNNING TO STAY IN ONE PLACE

I am beginning to confuse my various blogs.  My latest count is three: one dealing with writing and publishing, one dealing with oil paintings (mine) and the third, this one, dealing with the inanity and insanity of life. I've had to write all my blog addresses (not to mention my social network addresses) down in a notebook just to keep up.  And it's late and I'm tired.

Might as well see if I can include a link in this post, which originates at Posterous. So here goes:

This is an oil portrait, 6"x6", of my good friend Colleen Ross, a remarkable painter of beautiful women. We have never met, but I used a grainy photo to paint from and she actually loved it. I haven't painted in a year and this was to get my feet wet.

What I have been doing is publishing my humorous detective novel, LIE LIKE A WOMAN, on Amazon.com in both trade paperback and Kindle format. LIE LIKE A WOMAN is the first in the Bree and Richard Matthews mystery series. It's a terrific read if I do say so myself and I'm working on the second in the series, DIE LIKE A MAN even as we speak (blog).

I've also got an author's page now on Amazon with my syndicated blog from wordpress.com. Writing two blogs might end up being a nuisance, but I don't publish my artwork in the other one; it is strictly about writing...
