Chaos, Quotes, Farewell To A Friend And A New Story Published by BJ Neblett

This used to be my playground...

I've been doing a lot of thinking here recently... one of the perks of having time on your hands. Only sometimes the things that I get to think about are not always pleasant or happy... one of the perks of life. A quote I stumbled upon sometime ago popped into my mind as I was dealing with some personal issues. Why such a quote would make its presence so powerfully and literally at such a time is another question to ponder at another time. The only thing I've managed to come up with in the last 3 or 4 weeks is another quote from American poet John Greenleaf Whittier:
                       "Of all sad words of tongue and pen
                        The saddest are these: It might have been."
Powerful words indeed. Give them a ponder yourself sometime along with the ones that seem to have taken up residence inside of my brain:
                        "And I'd chose you; in a hundred lifetimes; in a hundred worlds;
                         in any version of reality, I'd find you and I'd chose you."
                                            The Chaos Of Stars

I've got more thinking to do...

New Stories, New Magazine!

Hello again! While beautiful weather, softball and other outdoor activities are claiming a lot of my time these days, I nevertheless have been finding plenty of time as well as inspiration for my writing. Several new short stories are either in mind or in the works. A couple of new romance stories for Romance Magazine as well pieces for eFiction Magazine are coming up in the next few of months. But the big news for June is a new story being published in a new magazine. Paradox Ethereal Magazine is a free online publication exploring art, culture, romance and all things beautiful. It is an interesting, intriguing, well conceived and beautifully presented publication, available monthly for free download in either html or pdf formats. I have a short story in June's issue, which is slated to hit the internet about Monday, June 1st. I have included a direct link below. I hope you enjoy this offering as well as the entire magazine. Please be sure to leave comments here, as well as for the editors letting them know what you think. I am looking forward to a long association with Paradox Ethereal Magazine as well as continuing to publish stories in Romance and eFiction Magazine. As always, I will continue to keep you posted on new releases right here.
Thanks for your continued support and comments. Look for a new short story as well as new poetry published right here. See you on the softball fields and at the Mariners/Tampa Bay games this weekend!
Peace,
BJ
