I finally published my two new writers this morning: the flash fiction story “Big To Small” by L. A. Fields and the article “To Blog Or Not To Blog” and the erotic poem “Love Speaks” by Shan Jeniah Burton. Their work is on the front page. Check the page out before their work rotates to the archives.

Hello, everyone: North and South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Asia. And a special shout-out to readers in Australia. The Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette has fans all over the world. I think the reason for this is the magazine’s commitment to good writing and it’s unashamed focus on sexuality. Why such an emphasis on sex?
Without sex, none of us would be here.

Well, it’s Friday and you know what that means: karaoke tonight at Del’s in Bloomfield, Pittsburgh’s “Little Italy”. It’s around 10:00 a.m. on another beautiful day in the city (high 81 and sunny), but the Old Soldier still has to do several things before setting off for karaoke tonight. Right now I’m frying up a mess of home fries for breakfast to be chased down by several cans of beer.
Retirement is wonderful.

Behind The Scenes: (June 1, 2012)
This week I’ll be publishing a new flash fiction story from a guest writer and an article on blogging and an erotic poem by the same guest writer. Both writers are women. I told you women liked this blog.
Now the Old Soldier is doing his laundry and getting ready for karaoke at Del’s tonight.
That’s about all I have to report today. Keep reading and keep writing that flash fiction.
