Steve Orlandella loved to write. By July, 2016, he was on a roll – brimming with ideas for his blog “Stevespeak”, his next novel CASINO KILLER, A Vic Landell Mystery, and witty, satiric, sarcastic Facebook posts. He had fun writing, then reading and re-reading what he had to say. I think he had more funContinue reading “A PROJECT WORTH DOING”

I vow to replace it every time I look at it. This morning, I took a walk around the patio, making aContinue reading “SATURDAY IN MOUGINS – January 20, 2018”
JANUARY 13TH, SATURDAY, in Nice. 2018.
Patience is not my strong suit. I have spent most of my life trying to conquer my need for instant gratification. Do it now; figure out how to deal with the consequences later. Another way to say that is, stick my hand into the fire; then figure out if it is hot. Or, out ofContinue reading “JANUARY 13TH, SATURDAY, in Nice. 2018.”
