Re-Introducing Vree

A year ago this month, I began a blog called Vree Erickson. It was about a recurring main character from my years as an author of Fantasy/Sci-Fi stories. That blog preceded this one by three months. It was short-lived in favor of blogging about more than Vree and my writing endeavors. In the first post … Continue reading Re-Introducing Vree

Ghost Dogs, Story 2023-0320

Many years ago I wrote a story for a high school English class.

New Year, New Ideas, New Goals

I love writing fiction. It brings out my inner child. The story world of my books is a playground in my mind where my characters can run as fast as they can, jump far, fly if they need to, fall and skin their knees if they must, and end up heroes if I want them … Continue reading New Year, New Ideas, New Goals

Ghost Love, Story 2022-1004

Halloween grows closer and I’m in a ghost story mood. This short story about young Vree Erickson and a ghost appeared earlier this year in my post of June 6. Vree Erickson’s pleasant expression changed to surprise, then to shock mixed with fright. The air in the dugout became thin and dry, as though an … Continue reading Ghost Love, Story 2022-1004

Doing What We Love

After blogging for eleven years and seven months at a WordPress site that featured my artwork, I shut it down so I can spend more time writing and keeping up this website/blog. That doesn’t mean I’ve given up on making art. On the contrary. In my post prior to this one, I showed a graphite … Continue reading Doing What We Love
