Followers

Followers is a new badge to Gnu News. So glad to have Jeannette aboard.

So much new stuff is happening in personal communications, like - face book has led to a number of old friends that were emailed on a regular basis. There are also many friends who are in the past.

With all the ways we now have to keep in touch, there is no reason to be lonely. So... click the followers button at the left and sign up. We look foreword to hearing from you. The telephone can be intrusive but not so here. Leave a comment at your leisure. If you are doing face book, or have a blog let us know.

until then...

Facebook

So many are in a tweeter over Face book. It is easy to see why. My family has joined in the parade... and so have I. Suddenly, MY friends are YOUR friends. I haven't uploaded a recent pic, still looks too much like the one at the Post office.

Email was a leap foreword over the telephone, (you can answer at your leisure),and then along came Immediate Messaging, to get all of us up to speed in typing our conversations in real time.

So, it's answer the phone, screen your calls, let the answering machine get it, wait for the voice mail...

There are many ways to communicate these days _ or not.

Remember when we had only the family visit? No phone? - visit in person! DO NOT send a telegram - or DO NOT write a letter. (There will be no mother-in-law jokes, please).

Until next time... keep looking up.

Trans Figuring Ivan

The novel is finally in the hands of the publisher. Trans Figuring Ivan should be available, baring unforeseen circumstances, in book stores between September and October of this year.

We have been beating the heat of what promises to be a--l o n g hot summer in central Florida.
Writing another novel and doing some traveling keeps us out of mischief.

Miss blogging and reading other blogs. Winter time seems best for that venture. Most of the bloggers I know are busy with other priorities as well.

Hope to be filling posts again soon. Until then... keep looking up.
