Good afternoon…an update about today, from the desk of Jayce Wellspring…
Today has been a day. I got started early and began by drinking a cup of coffee, followed by yard work, and it culminated in loading up some things at our cabin. Now, I am home and sipping coffee. I’ve not accomplished much writing recently, and I’m worse off for it. I did finish A… Continue reading

Wishlist…?! Prompt Answer…
This question threw me for a loop for a second. My wife said, “I wish I could spend more time remodeling my home into a state of completeness.” That’s a pretty good answer. I wish I could spend more time looking up at the stars and enjoying the quietness of a simple life. Two answers… Continue reading

Tattoo?! Daily Prompt Answer…
This won’t take long, for I have no tattoos. However, I once wanted one of a Celtic cross with bloody dog tags hanging from it, and a scroll draped over it that read: Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. If I had got the tattoo… Continue reading

Describing me…Prompt Answer…
What is one word that describes you? Man, I hate these questions. Mainly because I don’t see myself the way other’s do, and it wants me to describe myself. Hmm. Loyal, that’s a word I use to describe myself. Truthful, brutally so, but that’s another word I use to describe me. Stubborn. Grouch. Friendly. Redeemed.… Continue reading

It’s A Wonderful Life in rainy Mississippi…A morning musing from the kitchen table…unedited…
I’m up and about this morning, but I’m not in a hurry to do much. The weather is rainy, as it has been all night, and it shows no sign of relenting. I cooked breakfast for my wife, and as we sat at the table and ate, I stared out at the back patio. “This… Continue reading

Anxious?! Prompt Answer…
What makes you most anxious? I struggle with severe PTSD from my time at war, and many things make me anxious at times. Sometimes, it’s Middle Eastern music, other times it’s a scarred face or nightmares. There are many triggers, and I do my best to avoid them. Let’s face it, being anxious is no… Continue reading

Burn…an old short story gets rewritten…
Red trails of light glinted in the surface of the puddles of water outside of the bus terminal. Normally, tires whined on the dry pavement, but on this dreary day they made a sloosh sound. I sat on a damp bench underneath an overhang and paid little attention to the hum of life that went on… Continue reading

Good afternoon!
Howdy from North Mississippi! I’m just sitting down to write a post for my blog. This morning was full tilt. My wife and I went down to the VA first thing this morning for some lab work. Then, we made our way toward home, making intermittent stops along the way. Last night, I rewrote and… Continue reading

Prompt Answer…
What is the last thing you learned? Man, this thing doesn’t ask the easy questions, does it? Once again, I will assume its referencing writing. I’ve learned the importance of rewriting recently. For instance, my current project is Rhianna’s Tearful Chalice. I’m only ten pages into the rewrite, but the scenes seem much fuller, more… Continue reading

Good morning…
Howdy. I’m sitting at my kitchen table and sipping on my first cup of coffee. My wife, Chassidy and I have walked Casanova and Chunk this morning. Both dogs play underneath my feet as I write this. Play is the wrong word. Act out rambunctiously is a more apt description. Chunk’s bigger than Casanova, so… Continue reading
