This is a test to see if we have been permitted to use our blogs. I am dubious as all of my emails to Google and Blogspot have been ignored, and I was even polite in them! Perhaps they think I have died, or something. Well, I am going to have to get used to this. I'll be back, I think and hope.

Adrian, I hope to hear from you soon. I have patiently been checking every so often. We have missed you.
ReplyDeleteI have tried to correspond with Google, but they do not respond, I am guessing, as they want to shake down Biden to do their bidding, whatever that may be. As a Conservative I am the enemy. I may set up somewhere else and will make notice here as I have two or three new books to finish.
DeleteDear Anonymous: Sorry for my absence, but there are only so many hours in the day and I am on a "book writing" kick and just relased "Vanishing Ships" on Amazon.com offering the "ebook" version for $2.99 and I think many will enjoy it as I have solved a problem that has been costing us about a trillion Dollars of container ships and cargoes annually. It can be cured by uploading a new computer program to our existing "GeoSatellites" used by map makers, etc. Check it out at Amazon.com.
DeleteThank you for your concern: I have been drawn to other areas since the election and have been thrown a few "bones" by national magazines looking for new ideas, styles and people but nothing has clicked yet. We are in a strange time in media as well as the economy and realty of our nation today. I will keep trying with the Googles, but they are ignoring me to date.
ReplyDeleteI have been away. Hoping that you will be able to resume your work.
ReplyDeleteI am going to approach Google one more time as they have locked me out of my 20 blogs in their system, but left them up to collect the "hit" revenue they get from advertisers who put ads on my pieces. They have long stopped paying me thus the reason for leaving my blogs up. If I can get them to relent I will continue setting up new blogs here. If not I will go elsewhere and leave notes like this on my others, but pointing to my new location.

Dear Friends: While I hope to return, I have been busy, but the Google people continue to not respond to my emails. This remains to be no place for a political conservative to make written offerings... Hopefully, Soon.,....
DeleteA lot is happening out there, Ladies and Gentlem, and we have good seats!
DeleteI have always done this blog as a laid-back, service to those who do not want to take all this too seriously, have been very occupied with book writing, etc. but have decided to get back to this and learn what people are thinking and how anxious they are about it.
ReplyDeleteI am learning that the book market has all but died, but then I should have known as I live in a small northern California town and of the four local bookstores two have closed! 50% and both going down within a month of one another. As well, the Amazon account that I have done most of my books on has virtually died. OK, TV has been responsible, but there is still nothing like a book. It needs no electricity, is "forever" and rather soothing when you see it in your bookshelf. Apparently not for long.....
ReplyDeleteJust poking my nose in today after a week of listening to many prognosticators predicting the end of America, some blaming Donald Trump, of course. I wonder what you think?
