Inside Library John (July 2020 in Hindsight)


I'll blame the oppressive heat ofJuly for my lack of creative output.  That way I won't have to dig too deep into my own mind and its shortcomings.  Truthfully, I keep hearing a very logical voice advising me to give up.  I haven't yet, but I wasn't inspired to do a video for The FreakOptic Files this month.  Hope that's just coinky-dink.



On a positive note, the library has reopened.  It was initially strange to once again be among the books I can no longer read, but it's beginning to feel natural again.  It's almost like the last 4 months never happened, with the exception of rearranged furniture and the front desk fish tank.  At any rate, downloading series & films from Netflix & Amazon to watch offline is so much more comfortable indoors.  Never mind there are now over 40 cases of COVID-19 in my county. 😬



In other good news, a copy of DARK EXCURSIONS exists in the Northwest!  I don't know if this copy is now a coffee addict on a search for Bigfoot, but I hope its readers find something to enjoy.  They tweeted me a very nice pic of my difficult-to-photo book.  Seriously, the glossy cover has given me hours of photographic frustration



Oh, and Laszlo is getting bigger and bigger. 


In conclusion, July has been a bit of a teeter-totter month.  I'll be fine as long as the person on the other end doesn't jump off while I'm up in the air. 


Catch me in August! 

Thank you for reading or listening to my half-blind words. 

Freak Out, 
JLH

P.S. I wrote what might be one of the more important posts for this blog in July...

  2. Despite the reduced productivity, this seems to have been an eventful month! I wouldn't beat yourself up too much about July - Personally, I finished with one less blog post than I had anticipated. Oh, and Bigfoot can't read my copy of Dark Excursions until Nancy and I are finished with it! ;)

    P.S.: Laszlo's looking good! :)

    1. You make some valid points, Barry. Thank you!
      I felt lazy in July. Maybe Laszlo wore me out with his endless energy. lol

      Poor Bigfoot. 😂
