Hi all,
It’s been a very long week—what do you mean this is only Tuesday?
Today, and much of the week, I’ll be with my family helping out where I can. So this blog post is going to be really small, but I made the promise to post on each Tuesday, and a Substack on Thursdays, so please go and read the existing posts on both.
Let’s see what I can write about now.
Let’s start with a simple questions:
How are you doing?
Have you been staying creative?
I know it isn’t always easy, but we have to keep at it.
Creativity can start very small. I once wrote a murder mystery that began by describing fruit falling from a tree outside my window. It was quite a nasty little murder.
Have you ever seen something odd in the street. Perhaps a shoe, and wondered how it got there? I do that all the time, stories can come from all most anything.
I think I’ll turn this little thought piece into a great blog latter, but for now, I think this is all I can write.
Thank you all for sticking around and being creative.

This one’s going to be a bit short folks.
I am in the midst of working on a Bible lesson I’ll be giving in Sunday School this weekend.
But the devil is putting up obstacles in my path.
No, I do not blame the devil for this. I don’t give credit to the devil for anything I do in my life. That’s not taking responsibility for my successes, failure, or mistakes.
It would be easy to blame him, especially when something goes wrong at absolutely the wrong time.
I am near finished in writing up this Bible study, but I want to include three or four drawings to illustrate parts of the lesson. So I turn on Photoshop and my Wacom table, which I use to do my webcomic and other artwork.
However, as I start drawing my mouse begins to slow down and it becomes a struggle to make the sketches.
Hopefully the computer isn’t going to crash on me. If I can’t do the drawings I’ll rework part of the lesson, but I also plan to use my laptop in class. It’ll be doomed if that happens.
Even if that happens, I refuse to give the devil credit for messing up my work.
I do know that I’m going to have to buy a new computer soon, but please dear God, not yet. I need a stable job before that happens.
It’s also the reason I have the Ko-Fi link on my page here. Any help is appreciated.
Talk to you next week and I’ll let you know how this turns out.
Thanks, God bless.
