War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Hot and feeling hot this late-afteroon Monday here in California’s Central Valley — just another drop in the bucket of weather going abnormal on the normal (for climate change). I came across the story when it happened last week, and spied this tweet this afternoon as a remembrance: As a former journalist and a newsroom…
Bypassing the horrendous news cycle this late-afternoon Friday here in California’s Central Valley, I’ve instead punched-out another pleading overture to please buy my novel, “Brown-Eyed Girl With A Cold Corona,” and help an old guy who’s always dreamed of being a novelist. Actually, I’m already a novelist (‘Corona‘ was published in March of last year…
In lieu of the normal political/climate change clusterf*ck reverberating across our life screens right now to a near-real-time post on a TV binge I’m currently undergoing this late Wednesday morning. I am way-crazy repeat viewing of various shows kind of person, certain series that make me feel a certain way for a small amount of…
Of course, due to the hardcore musical fact Led Zeppelin’s 1971 “Stairway To Heaven” is so known, so overwhelmingly continuously common, the riff of all time can’t be played without a music-store employee going “a little funny in the head” without the proper drugs to soothe the earworms.

Here we are with another plea this Saturday afternoon to please, please buy my novel, “Brown-Eyed Girl With A Cold Corona,” on sale now. In effect, though, in about two weeks, ‘Corona‘ will actually have been on sale for a whole, full-year — I self-published in March 2022 via Outskirts Press — and being shitty…
In the spirit of a brand-new year this Sunday evening, so it is with another call-out plea to please buy my novel, “Brown-Eyed Girl With A Cold Corona,” self-published last March by Outskirts Press, and help generate a literary following of some note. And, too, make me some money, which is not such a terrible…
Barbara Walters seemed like Queen Elizabeth — she was always there. And now there’s a gap in life and a hole in the history of the now. I came of age under the journalism of Walters and the notion of shit that’s taken for granted nowadays was on the edge of breaking news for more…
Once again another plea to please, please buy my novel — “Brown-Eyed Girl With A Cold Corona,” self-published via Outskirts Press last March, and help an old guy grow older a bit more gracefully. Or maybe more delightfully, or dexterously — whatever My author’s page at Outskirts is here. The Amazon/Kindle page is here. A…
Cloudy this late-afternoon Sunday here in California’s Central Valley — a preview of winter. And a change of pace with some music to serenade the anxiety building to Tuesday as so much shit from democracy to the actual, physical environs of our living spaces is on the line in the election. Shitty to have to…
Darkening skies to the north this close-to–noon Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley — NWS has forecast a big chance for rain in the upcoming afternoon, 90 percent maybe, and tomorrow, too (40 percent), even into Thursday (30 percent), as the seasonal wet season kicks off. The NOAA predicted a lower-than-usual rainy season and even…
