This is the beginning of a story about two men; however, only one (at most) will survive.

I have been writing for fourteen years and have fifteen books on Amazon/Kindle. Some horror, some twisted, some experimental, some essay and a few historical.
I think that now I will really, really, really retire and just write.
Lets see if I can do retirement correctly this time!
The Short Stories of Waldo 
Aha! But told first person via journal? I love that kind of read-between-the-lines story– reading with blinders on.
But what else would a fisherman have with him other than a fishing log. So he had to use whatever means he had. Thank you for reading this. I promise it will have much more than an owl and a few sattelites floating through the night sky. Wally
Anna, We miss you. Have not seen a post in almost a month. Hope everything is OK. I had some trouble with my WP interface a few weeks ago and hope I did not miss something. Be good. Oh nevermind being good. Just have a good time. Wally
Wally! You dear man. I’m just waiting for these kids to go to school! Thank you for the note. I’ll be back soon, with so many things stewing to be said. xoox
