Call Me Krakatoa or Vesuvius
My (Temporary?) Semi-Retirement from Substack
Now that I’ve posted all three books in the Taterskin & The Eco Defenders trilogy here (one chapter at a time), and new AI images are being generated at a much slower rate than previously, new substack articles from me will be quite scarce for an indefinite period of time, and possibly forever. This site will continue to exist, but will be dormant (mostly inactive [“mostly dead”—Princess Bride], but not impossible that it erupts from time to time), akin to Mount Vesuvius and Krakatoa (west of Java).
I am currently working (part-time) as a “Catcher in the Rye” (babysitter) in an after-school program of 1st to 3rd graders, and am gathering insights, information, and stories/experiences for what might possibly eventually result in some substack articles about the experience/the kids, or even become a nonfiction book, particularly on kids within that age range (changing their names, of course, “to protect the innocent” [which is really a valid reason for anonymity in this case, not a cop-out]).
The whippersnapper writings (if they do come to fruition, and which have a working title of “Schooltime Grandpa”) will concern these young ones’ thoughts, personalities, and experiences — but even if that does happen, a full accounting (book) won’t be completed any time soon — probably not for at least a couple of years, and more likely several. In other words, don’t hold your breath.
So for now, thanks for reading, and I’ll “catch you on the flip side.”
Book 1 of Taterskin & The Eco Defenders, “Wonders Never Cease,” can be found here.

If you like the Taterskin & The Eco Defenders series, you will probably also enjoy the “Warble McGorkle” trilogy (search for “Warble McGorkle” or “Blackbird Crow Raven” (my nom de plume when writing fiction) on amazon to find the three volumes)
