I’m it in Rising Author Tag

Posted on December 12, 2018December 11, 2018 by Loni Townsend

Despite the low rating by critics and the sort, I enjoyed the movie Tag. But this blog post has nothing to do with that. Author C.G. Coppola tagged me in the Rising Author Tag. Not sure that I’m a rising author since it’s been years since I put out anything beyond a short story, but…

Time Flies As They Say #MyFirstPostRevisited

Posted on March 8, 2017 by Loni Townsend

Have you ever wondered why I started blogging? Most likely, you haven’t. That’s perfectly okay with me. But Sarah Brentyn at Lemon Shark created a blog hop called My First Post Revisited. She tagged me, and—with much cringing—I jumped back in time to six years ago to a blog that’s been hidden from public view…

Vanishing Squirrel Act

Posted on August 24, 2016August 23, 2016 by Loni Townsend

Imagine me staring at my computer wide-eyed and a bit bewildered. Two weeks. Somehow, somewhere, two Wednesdays came and left before I had the chance to process what was going on. Call me a slacker, for that is what I am. Had I been paying attention to the days, I might have made party decorations…

Let Me See Your Face … Again!

Posted on March 30, 2016 by Loni Townsend

Two years ago, I posted about Gravatar. Seeing that the great A to Z challenge is starting this Friday (even though I’m not participating), I thought it would be a good time to revive this old post and share again. It might help with growing blogging relationships. Do you know someone who is bad with…

Things About Me

Posted on March 18, 2015March 31, 2016 by Loni Townsend

Before I get into the main post, I wanted to ask that you please check out The Ancient. I was fooling around this last weekend, and found that you can almost read my whole story in the preview. And as a writer, I have that deep-seated desire to be read. Even if you don’t pick…

The 777 Challenge

Posted on December 10, 2014January 9, 2017 by Loni Townsend

Chrys Fey tagged me in the 777 challenge. For the challenge you have to choose a WIP, go to the 7th page, scroll down to the 7th line, and share the next 7 lines or so. I debated which WIP to open. I could do the one I just finished, but it’s a short story,…

Sunflowers for Tina – #LifeIsGood

Posted on September 8, 2014 by Loni Townsend

Today, the Internet remembers Tina Downey. She was a bright spirit with the motto “Life is Good,” and she left us far too early. I didn’t meet her until this past April, when I participated in the A-to-Z Challenge. Even in that short time, I was amazed by her upbeat attitude in the midst of…

Civil War World?

Posted on July 8, 2014 by Loni Townsend

If you haven’t seen, Elizabeth Seckman is hosting a blog challenge to celebrate the release of her book, Bella’s Point. The only prompt is: It was the year 1865… With a prompt like that, how could I not write a story? The tricky part is this: when I write something outside of the Niniers, it’s…

IWSG – Vacation

Posted on July 2, 2014 by Loni Townsend

Today is the first Wednesday of the month. That means, it’s time for Insecure Writer’s Support Group! You can find the sign up for the IWSG here. We owe Alex J Cavanaugh a huge thank you for thinking this blog hop up. Writing time is one of those valuable, limited resources. Lately, I’ve been too…

Welcome to my blog. I post here on Wednesdays most of the time, but you can find me on social media any day of the week. My topics include my stories and writing, life at the Town's End, creating and tinkering with graphics, things I learn and think might be helpful to others, and the occasional amateur photo. Thanks for stopping by! I hope to see you around.
