Hi! Last Sunday over on Substack, I posted “The Most Influential People In Ancient History” (pt. 2), about Homer and Sappho. I mentioned that there’s been different theories about Sappho’s role (whether she ran some sort of “school” for young ladies or taught them or what) and those ideas, some of which started back in…
Hi! I’m back with my latest video effort! Although this site still needs 3 things done before it’s 100%, it’s so, So, SO nice to get back to doing videos! And this is the result! ๐ Yeah, this one was a challenge! I think I ran more clips for this one for it’s length (just…
Hello! Last week on Substack, I posted an article, โThe Most Influential People of the Ancient Worldโ. It got a really awesome response! Thank you so super-much for that! ๐ Part of that article was about z Hittite prince, Zannanza, son of ล uppiluliuma I. To recap, ล uppiluliuma sent Zannanza to Egypt at the request of…
Hello! Here’s a new video from Dreams of Summer (the second book of A Gem-bright Year). Iโm in the process of getting back into this story and there videos. Enjoy this meeting between Shinotori and Lady Kiyohara in a summer field! ๐
Since I’ve posted up to Ch.20 on Substack, it made more sense to post all of these to get caught up. Enjoy!
There’s a nice stream near where I live, but I’ve never seen nymphs like these there. I wonder who they’re waiting for? I hope they won’t have to wait too long… ๐
The next Thursday afternoon, around 1600, my phone lit up with Coleโs number. Thursday is one of my short days and I was in the kitchen with Tee, waiting for an early dinner to be delivered. It was my turn to pick and Iโd ordered butter chicken curry. I usually pick Indian when we order…
Itโs 3 oโclock and Iโm sitting at my desk with my head in both hands. I sucked at the meeting and Mannyโthat is, Mr. Tedros, as Iโd better be careful to call himโgave me stink-eye when we broke for lunch. I canโt say I didnโt deserve it. First, we are behind and while thatโs mainly due to factors beyond our control, I was so scattered…

โฆ Some rain must fall. They say it likes itโs a bad thing. ๐ I love the rain. I love rainy days. Theyโre so peaceful and the sound rain makes falling through the leaves is the most soothing sound I know. Sitting on my veranda with a cup of hot tea and watching the rain…
Iโve been messing around again, trying to get some pics to illustrate these chapters. Riley created those amazing pics of her super-amazing-hot volleyball players! It must be her wizarding skills because getting the old reliable image model (Flux 1.1 Pro) to cooperate pool-shooting pics was a challenge! After a bunch tries, I finally got two, but they donโt have much to do with my prompt!…
My most ambitious video yet, from “Dreams of Summer”!
Iโve been fooling around a little, think of getting a pic of Jae. And Tee. I know some people might prefer to just go with their imaginations. Others like an image. I can feel either way. But here goesโฆ Iโll post these two. Hopefully thatโs OK? Jaelyn Alexander (Jae) Teagan Alexander (Tee) Thank you more…
