This was originally an online journal. Now, it is a place for the "journal", Bible teachings, essays, and other writings. There aren't as many Bible teachings on here as I would like. I hope to get more on here soon. You should see old ledger pages as the background to these pages. If you do not, then hit the "refresh" button on your browser.
The "journal", is a "public" journal. Hopefully I will have wisdom when I write. The "private" journal is handwritten onto physical paper and that isn't available to most people. (Some people put their private thoughts on paper, but they don't keep them, "private". A lot of trouble can happen when you do that. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4450116.stm )
This journal is what I am doing instead of writing a "blog". I think this will be cheaper in the long run. (To read a history of my "blogging" efforts, see the "Old Blog Posts" below.) On top here, you will find the pages that I write to on and off. Below the green divider, (border) you will find, "one off" things I have written. Let me know if you can read the text on this back ground. Let me know how you like this. You never know what may end up on these pages. Keep checking back here to see what has been added. There will probably be, content suitable only for "adults" on here. If you don't consider yourself "adult" yet, then you might not want to read this. Ha! (It's not that I get really "obscene" or anything. I just write about things at times that are not for children's eyes.)
If you have any comments to make about the stuff on here please click here. I will respond sooner if not later.
Thanks!

My Life Lessons What I am learning in life + "Getting Better" A sometimes daily journal of sorts. My efforts at "getting better" in life.

(A New, New Testament Interlinear) |

Writing About Books.
(I write about
books.) I write about various aspects of books.
Garage sale finds and other things that come up as "we" collect books.
[Yes! I have frogs in my pockets.] I
write about books we have and things I've read. You never know what might
end up here. If you want to see how I came to
collect books, see also the section below on "Collecting".

 Radio Dramas and other fiction that I wrote myself. I am learning and experimenting. I am not sure these will always be very good. I am always looking for ways to improve. Let me know what you think. (I know, some of the text on the index page is difficult to read. I wanted the back ground to show up. I think with some effort it works ok.) |

My journey as I write a novel, "The Book-Case Conundrum". This may not make much sense to you, but you can read it none the less. If you'd like to make any comments on the "Book-Case Conundrum", please see the feedback page I did up for it. |
