About Me

Almost anything gets old. New projects keep me interested and that includes writing/publishing.

That's the short list. Now its women's fiction and associated publishing. That's my wife, Mala, in the picture with me. She writes under the name Annie Rogers. She'll chime in here from time to time.

I can't resist posting this.
In my last post I mentioned my 100 year old aunt who died six months ago. Several days ago I at last received a final check from Social Security. It came after they requested a birth certificate (presumably to prove the person they paid benefits to for 35 years had actually existed) her death certificate ( Yep. She's dead. That's why I'm asking you to stop sending money.) and a marriage certificate (Sorry. She was never married and I have no certificate proving a negative).
Today I received the following letter: (Our government at work!)
"You will soon receive a check for $(amount deleted) because we owed money to (your aunt). Do you think we are wrong? If you disagree with this decision, you have the right to appeal." Blah, blah, blah.
