RETOOLING BLOG!!

On August 13, 2021, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

So, I’ve been out of the game for a while. To be more specific, I have not been writing regularly for more than a few years. I AM still working on the fourth Sheriff James Pruett book, newly named “Border Land”, but I have been in self-imposed exile from my soul for a stretch. When […]

 

The 90s: Arguably The Best Decade In History For Top 100 Movies

On May 16, 2017, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

   Lately I’ve been writing blogs, stopping around the 2/3 mark, and moving on to another subject. Sometimes I think writer’s muses catch viruses akin to the flu, or maybe a better comparison is a computer virus; everything works fine for a while and then, progressively, chaos ensues, and the mind wanders away, confused. Nonsensical comparisons […]

 

New Town, New View, New Book (Same Me)

On April 10, 2017, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

Does anyone make major changes anywhere is the vicinity of their 50th birthday and not be accused of some type of midlife crisis? First of all, obviously there’s some truth (a LOT of it?) to the statistics that a higher percentage of men and women make a relatively bigger life change near midlife than any […]

 

A “Stop Sign” Moment: Happy Birthday, Fletch.

On March 5, 2017, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

As we move through this thing called “Life” faster and faster, days like hours, months like days, and years disappearing almost before we’ve realized they began, there are always “stop sign” moments. No matter where you are in your personal situation, no matter how healthy (or otherwise), regardless of how fast that motor-scooter is zipping […]

 

I’m Baaaaaack

On March 3, 2017, in Announcements, Miscellaneous, Surviving, by rsguthrie

Just a quick blog snippet—hmm, I think a “snippet” would actually be considered a short piece snipped from an existing blog. This is more of a really short blog. No, too short (and lacking too much substance) to actually be considered a blog. Tell you what: if “snippet” isn’t close enough, have at it, let […]

 

My Dad, The Writer (Who Knew?)

On August 26, 2015, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

I’ve tried not to make a big thing about reaching the age my father died and that his father survived heart attack number one. Does such karmic, heredity reality give one pause? Sure. But I had a nuclear stress test done by a cardiologist a couple years ago (before losing 120+ pounds), and passed with […]

 

Amazon Review Process Does NOT Protect Your Trademark

On May 15, 2015, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

A few weeks ago I received some emails from a person who was clearly not lucid. The person was also tweeting gibberish with my @rsguthrie name in the tweets. I never responded to him, naturally hoping the delusion would solve itself. There was nothing threatening or dangerous in the posts or emails, so I assumed […]

 

Who Devalued Our Work?

On May 11, 2015, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

One of the things I have been working to learn in my copious spare time is web design. No, I’m not yet attempting to build pages (although if you are just starting out and don’t have the $$ for a top-tier professional, comment here and I will email you and see if we can work […]

The Internet: Also A Place For Anonymous Abuse

On April 22, 2015, in Uncategorized, by rsguthrie

It’s funny when I think back on the first days of the Internet, for me. You see, that last part is really important because the “Internet” has been around a lot longer than most people think. The large, interconnection of nodes (or computers) began as a government project called ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network)—eventually, […]
