Saving Thinker's Corner

Thinker's Corner was my very first blog. I started writing it way back in May 2005 when it was located at Lulu.com, where my paperback books are still published.

As of February 2009, Lulu.com will no longer support blogs. There was no way to import a non-Blogger blog to Blogger so... I migrated Thinker's Corner to Blogger, post by post, with all the original Lulu post dates intact.

I hated to scrap my very first blog. But I didn't migrate all 70 posts because some of them are duplicated on Thinck Tank, my second-oldest blog, located here at Blogger, and some were just no longer relevant. A little more than half of them survived.

It took me two days.

"Blind Fool Running" is a completed novella.

I finally completed Blind Fool Running as a 31,000-word novella. This is my seventh book, the first book under my literary pen name Jonco Bugos and my very first novella.

I plan to publish this book in 2009.

Author's Note: No, "Blind Fool Running" by Jonco Bugos has nothing to do with the Jonco Bugos blog. Jonco Bugos (my alter ego) is the pen name I use for writing literary fiction and for writing the Jonco Bugos blog and the Think-A-Holic Lounge blog.

Mike the Obscure

There's another side of me that first showed his inscrutable face in 1994. I call him Mike the Obscure. This is what he looks like:



He has a quirky habit of putting everything that happens in life into neat little nutshells. Mike the Obscure started ghost writing a blog called "25 Words or Less" in 2007 that is supposed to be written by me and I can't seem to stop him. So, I simply indulge him.
