Surfing in the Storm

-
Many years ago I wanted to put together a band.
I knew the mood and the name, but this is s far as it went.
Hurricane Dorian was a near miss, but where I live we barely got wind and rain. A few miles away got over 8 inches of rain. Here, barely an inch.

Selfish I know, but I like a near-miss better than the alternative.

My life has become a hurricane in the past few years. And I think I found my feet, to stand on my life and ride through the storm.

And the only way the storm will end will not be good for anyone but me. I do know that.

But it is my intent to ride for as long as possible.

Storms are not a new idea. For me or many of the people I have known.

(I found this under "drafts" from the beginning of the confinement. I decided to post it, despite being over a week late.) I'm trying to get rolling for production. The Confinement has me living in solitarty and getting judgemental a**ho**s judging my reaction to it. The Lockdown is not really any different to me.

Going to help me with a problem at the house. And they stopped appearing long before the threat of plague was on the horizon. i have someone who bring by groceries, once a week, spends 10 minutes talking and is sometimes back for a quick visit. it doesn't equal the "hour in the yard" and interaction with food delivery to a cell in real prison solitary. A friend had two of his sons come over to spend the night, twice in two weeks. They help with chores aro...

SSC 13 is done. I wanted to add more, but enough is enough. It will go out in the next day or so. I'm also putting some polish on ORFA , in a vertical, letter-sized edition, for Skyrealms of Jorune . I have some work yet to do for that world, but this marks the end of the Segment: Sho-Caudal project. Thirteen issues, about 300 pages. I had about twenty people around the world supporting me on this and I hope they feel I did right by them. I had hoped the book(s) would provide a stream of income through Amzon.com, but that is not happening. It may build for something good later, but for the moment I need to shift lanes. MDJS  stands for  More Damn Joe Stuff , was intended as a project to garner support from Patreon to accomplish specific projects. There are several tracks - 12-Step Recovery, Role Playing Games, Self Education, and some personal projects. The Patreon channel will show as MDJS, with tracks for: Role-Playing Games - Old-style tabletop, penci...
