#PennedPossibilities 985 — How long have you been writing or when did you start?

I have been #writing for going on 29 years. Started when my dad gave me his old college typewriter at age 12 and have been writing something since. I spent a lot of time in #fanfic world while branching into my own #stories.

I still have those first stories I wrote in my archive. #writingcommunity #indieauthor

I haven’t been able to find any #obit #stories on the great British #sciencefiction #writer, #IanWatson, who reportedly died today, but I did find this insightful, entertaining piece he wrote about #StanleyKubrick and #AI in January: 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

If you're looking for a cool podcast of interesting stories THAT AREN'T ABOUT POLITICS, I'm really enjoying
"Talk Story with Aunty Piilani".

Episode 25: The Call of the Kitchen - Talk Story with Aunty Piilani | iHeart

<p>In this episode, Aunty Piilani begins her Michigan chapter, starting in Lansing and adjusting to a completely different life, climate and pace before eventually making her way to Eaton Rapids. But once she gets into the kitchen, things pick up. We hear about the early days of Piilani’s Restaurant and Catering, her high standards for her staff, and the reputation she was determined to build — even if it meant she felt like she was 'Lady Gordon Ramsay.” And yes, this is the episode featuring the infamous pineapple incident. It’s a quiet start with flashes of the fire to come in our next episode.</p>

"We are producing our reality through the #stories we choose to tell & the #metaphors that we use to narrate them."

"I realized ... #education by science is also a kind of education by #poetry.

And if you are willing to feel at home with the strange wonder that is our cosmos, to grapple with the abstract, then you are better positioned to resist those who are hoping to take you for a ride ..."

Where Physics Meets Poetry: On Language and the Power of Metaphor

When I was 16 years old, my beloved college counselor told me that it was a good thing I wanted to be a physicist because I wasn’t much of a writer. We were close—I had her home phone number for em…

I wrote a short story (around 500 words), about a short scene I had in mind.

A man and his companion

In the late morning a big man comes into town with a black dog without any clear outline. The man is carrying an M4 rifle and a kevlar vest. A scar is visible on his cheek. The scarf, he was wearing, gets thrown around by the wind. With no hurry, he walkes over to the saloon. While many people are staring at him, he acts as if he doesn’t notice it. Reaching the saloon, he goes inside. The voice of the barkeeper was to hear: “Dogs not allowed.” He nods and commands his dog to lay down next to the steps to the saloon.
