ChatGPT – AI Writing
Ruining the market? I read an article about how ChatGPT is now the author or co-author of over 200 books on Amazon. It is expected that there are many more that haven’t disclosed the use of ChatGPT in the writing. I briefly toyed with the idea, thinking that it might help me be more confindent…

My Handprint Painting
My painting I’d like to describe and explain about is my handprint painting. I did mostly cool colors for the handprint. I actually painted my hand and pressed it to the page to make the handprint! I had to wash my hands after that, but it’s ok. Making a mess on your hand can be…

“I happen to be painting a very large bruise”
The title for this blog post is a little strange at first glance. The title was from a comic strip, Big Nate. He was hogging the reds and the blues and when Mr. Rosa, the art teacher, came and saw, he said “I happen to be painting a very large bruise”, so that’s where the…

50% Evil (Part 1)
What if 50% of the people you know were evil. I know social media and even news media make it seem like you should be scared of everyone, because evil is so rampant. But I know the truth. The Karulans are here, and they have been for centuries. They appear to be normal people but…

The Sea #2: The Reasoning Behind
The painting I’d like to talk about today is a work called “The Sea #2” by me! The squid in this picture has 11 tentacles because of a birth defect. The squid is sad because it’s injured, and the waters are murky, when they once were crystal clear and there was nothing to worry about…

My Second Painting
My name is Carolyn Phillips, and I’m the 9-year-old daughter of the creator of this website. My first painting I’d like to describe and explain about is my painting of an Orangey Yellowy squid, titled “The Sea #1”. I did that one because… well, it was cute and fun. It has some lush, green plant…

Writing Samples Coming Soon
The point of this blog (I think) is for me to be able to practice writing fiction. There will be lots of posts where I talk about random thoughts or ideas that I have. Perhaps some posts about tools that I use (because.. why not?). And there will be samples of fiction writing. Now, to…

The Blog Has Been Deployed
I finally created a new blog. Or at least, I completed the install for it. I haven’t posted anything on it yet, and right now if you were to go to it, it wouldn’t respond. (The site is ‘stopped’ in IIS). My intention is to get a post published on it soon. Probably in the…

The World Revolves Around Me
The site name (TheWorldRevolvesAroundMichael) came from a joke with a radio show. In the early 2000’s there was a morning radio show with “Beaner & Ken”. I used to listen to them on my way to work each day. One of the things that I liked about the show was a weather segment with ‘Vulcan’.…

Why Do I Think I Want to Write?
I first latched onto the idea of becoming a writer because my daughter mentioned wanting to be an author when she grows up. She was in 5th or 6th grade. She is an avid reader and the idea of being an author appealed to her. She even started writing stories for fun. I don’t think…
