Novelist Online Onpaper offers my thoughts on writing, reading and publishing--and sometimes the world--at the very least on the first of each month and more often by whim. Periodically, I will review novels from the present and the past, published online or on paper. Hopefully, I won't rain on any novelist, especially those seeking their audience without the help of traditional publishers. My novels are available via Kindle, Amazon and Smashwords through my webpage: www.kennethccrowe.com
No five-year
plan for me
Aging limits
my outlook
so, each
day I wake up
looking
forward to
breakfast
and dinner,
speaking to
my children,
watching
films and news on cable,
reading novels
and poetry,
Newsday,
NYT, Washington Post;
inspiration
to write poems,
pretzels,
caramels and cookies,
going
to sleep at night
The
experience of pleasure
coming at
an unexpected time
can only be
described as sublime,
as treasure
without measure
The thrill
of a meal
A great
cable film
A
chocolate-covered
A stunning,
red sunset
Pleasures
anticipated
are not the
same,
limited as
they are
by a mental
frame
