489- MY THREE (3) BLOGS...AND WHY I LIKE RESEARCHING, COMPOSING And WRITING THEM ALMOST AS MUCH AS MY FIRST NOVEL, THE SERPENTINE BOND!.....

****WHY ARE MY ORIGINAL-STYLE BLOGS SO DIFFERENT and UNIQUE? Most are brief!...they cover an unbelieveable variety of subjects, from history mysteries, to love stories, to ponderables, to national issues with thinkin' topics, to reveting trivia, to bits of humor, to issues that you forgot about....
A) For once, now, my thoughts are mine, they belong to moi and not a single, solitary other person! And THAT is mighty refreshing, period. They are thought up by me, for me and of me. If anyone else cares, would like to, they may read them..also. 'the squire's way' is a social commentary, having created and taught special and unique Sociology Socratic-style classes for a spell.
B)This first blog, 'The Squire's Way', 'The Squire's View', is so varied that it takes an evening or three to peruse them. My faves? Too many but there are the ones about what love is, especially the one from recollections with my grandparents Willie and Carl. Local and Virginia historic lore! William and Mary stories! Heroes! Ponderings! Young Virginians who have been taken from their existence too soon! Ponderings! NEAT stuff!....
C) The second blog, 'The Squire's Political Views', is my very own personal conclusions about the direction, or lack of direction, for our country's government. I "see" a real travesty developing and evolving for the soul of our once powerful country. They're my honest thoughts and feelings, not yours!
D) And my 'Mountain Tales'.... This native Virginian remembers and spins true tales from my neat youthhood...listening to family and their friends who came to visit on Steffey Street.
E) And MY first novel, The Serpentine Bond!, is complete, with ever soooo slowly and carefully going over all 600+ pages, making sure that all the facts are matching and correct. What is now taking many weeks? That last chapter, bringing the fascinating adventures' and characters' plot about the lives of seven (7) university chums, to a crescendo that will not be solved until the very last page!!! And, yes, it is true that the plot never ever reveals on what campus TSB! is located. Shhhhhhhh....someone slipped to me, the author, that TSB! has a clue or three hidden deep inside the novel suggesting that much of it takes place in a university town feeling a lot like C-Ville! Once, by the way, the bonded seven venture out before Christmas break to another historic school down the Interstate to experience a unique pre-exam campus celebration around the "oldest continuously used academic building in America"...the reading of the story of the vile green Grinch, with songs of merriment and plump cookies by hot cider!
And the second novel? Meet Me At The Wild Cherry Tree!...a 300+ page romance tale about two munchkins meeting one summer at a treehouse. They don't meet again until thirtysomething.......
