The Story's End
The end is just the beginning.
Snowed In
We moved to North Carolina to escape the ravages of winter. We didn't completely escape it. As much as we dislike ice and snow, sometimes it is rather beautiful.
Happy New Year
2024 is done. 2025 is here. Maybe we should just leave it at that.
The Moon-Eyed People of Appalachia
What dwells in those dark and secret places where the sun dims to dusk, and all is swallowed in shadow. || Flash Folklore / Campfire Story
Crepuscular Dreams
A poem.
Panster-Friendly Story Planning
Writing is hard. It's even more difficult if we spiral down a rabbit hole of wasteful exploratory churn. Fortunately, modest planning techniques can help pilot the narrative back on course, no matter the medium: corporate presentation, how-to manual, flash fiction, novel, memoir, or even a sonnet.
Adrift
A poem.
Life and Loss
Existential musings on an introspective year of mourning.
My Mother, In Memoriam
In memoriam, Carol Marie Colombo Warner, June 18, 1941 to November 14, 2022. Delivered as spoken eulogy on December 17, 2022, Hope Lutheran Church, Cranberry Twp, Butler, PA. by Todd Warner. (Note: originally 'Adrift. Untethered.' Title changed to avoid conflict with a similarly titled poem.)
More Puppies!
We were not looking for a dog. We vowed that our next pup was going to be an older rescue dog. Oops! Meet Huck!
Starlink For The Win!
For eight years we have been plagued by mediocre to horrible rural internet. No longer! Starlink FTW!
Amazon Customer Service and the Case of the Mysterious Package
Mystery solved! Well, not really. But the customer service interaction was, at the very least, entertaining.
