We were both much younger then.

They sound like fun!

So I can sit down, watch TV, make a snack, and do a load of laundry? Hand me some Swedish meatballs.

It's a fun park with great fans. I've never seen baseball in NH...

I used to know them, but I forgot.

Enjoy! We just saw the Portland (Maine) Sea Dogs - great game, but it doesn't count for this list.

41, with baseball in 20. Still need to get to ballparks in Texas, Florida, and Seattle.

Daddy School - Chapter 1 (fiction) | Writer Nat Swift Get more from Writer Nat Swift on Patreon

I started posting my old Kindle Vella story on Patreon so I can get back to it. It's a mystery about a girl searching for her dad after he's kidnapped by someone nefarious from Daddy School. Maybe two someones. Maybe more.

There are two chapters so far, and I'll post chapter 3 in a few days...

Corny. I'd tell bad jokes. Not sure if that's a job in your world, but I'd be good at it.

I mean I can do more if this is going back around again...

Update: it was awesome, and dogs are awesome.

Ellie was right - I loved it!

He looks like a fine outstanding young man, I think he does.

So I don't need to put my hair up under my hat?

It's pretty amazing!

I totally forgot about it at first, but when I re-read BLUE SKIES to prepare for writing FROM NOW ON, I realized it had to be really important.

#TimeTravelAuthors July 2025 prompts Day 25: Jewelry or fashion in your story

Day 25:

In both BLUE SKIES and FROM NOW ON, Annie gives her dad a charm necklace with glittery pink unicorns to wear for good luck while skydiving.

I guess it kind of brings good luck in the end...

I flipped over in a canoe today for the first time since boy scout camp, when we had to do it (and flip it back up again) to earn a merit badge.

And you know what, it's still a lot of fun.

We're seeing Superman tomorrow.

The last time I remember being excited to see a Superman movie was 1980.

Every single line in that movie is delivered perfectly.

That's a great list.
