PRICKLE FORREST CHRONICLES SEPTEMBER 2020 NEWSLETTER Prickle Forrest Chronicles By Chrissy Hartmann September 2020 It’s fall. The leaves are changing. Wood smoke is in the air. Cider is pressed.

Pumpkin spice seems to have found the … Continue reading PRICKLE FORREST CHRONICLES
PRICKLE FORREST CHRONICLES July 2020 (Posted 07/29/2020 By Chrissy Hartmann No Fourth of July celebration. No community celebration of Independence Day. The city not festive at all. The town sits stagnate in the presence of this pandemic. But is it truly a pandemic? Or is it the figment of fear? The hot humid days of summer have arrived. Unfortunately, with this pandemic it makes it difficult to cool down. No fun filled days going to the local pool unless of course you call ahead for a reservation for a quick dip. Needless to say, the air conditioner is getting … Continue reading Prickle Forrest ChroniclesJuly 2020 Newsletter
PRICKLE FORREST CHRONICLES May 2020 (Posted 05/17/2020 By Chrissy Hartmann Spring’s arrived! Easter’s passed. Normally a celebration of rebirth. But not this year. Sure blooming flowers fill the landscapes, Blue Skye’s hang overhead, but life itself casts a shadow over the splendors of Mother Nature. Death invades the land. Liberal instability longs for conquest. Concepts of destruction feed our fears. But always remember, Good trumps evil. The Darkness fades from light. Strength, resilience, and patience create survivors. Learn from it. Keep faith. The good shall win. And once again, the colors of happiness will bloom and this evil … Continue reading Prickle Forrest Chronicles May 2020 Newsletter
BACK TO THE MOVIES… It’s been some time since I visited the movie theater. I hadn’t wanted to go not because of the movies out there of little quality, that’s a whole different story, but I hated being a bother to my fellow moviegoers. No one likes the constant questions to describe what’s going on in the scene and I detest over explanation. So what got me back into a theater seat? I’d heard movie goers with disabilities were having much success and actual enjoyment because theaters now equipped themselves with the latest adaptive technology for everyone to participate in … Continue reading Back to the Movies…

What’s the most irritating thing for a writer? I know most would say writers block, but not for me. For me it’s when I’m on the go and an idea hits. It’s not the idea that’s irritating, it’s the fact I have no pen or paper near by to jot down my thoughts. But with technology these days, that scenario is pretty much obsolete. Below is a list of iPhone apps I find helpful as a writer. 1. A novel idea by Shawn Svacha This app is great for the new novelist on the go. The cost is well worth … Continue reading Aps for Writing on the iPhone
