What's in a name?

 I had no idea that each full moon had a name. 

Tonight is the November full moon AKA Beaver moon. I will be hanging my jewelry (dangling from the windowsill) to recharge them. I do this monthly. I did miss last month as it was rainy. No moon power. 

Here are the names for those interested. 

I've heard a few of them before:

Traditional Full Moon Names

  1. Wolf Moon – January
  2. Snow Moon – February
  3. Worm Moon – March
  4. Pink Moon – April
  5. Flower Moon – May
  6. Strawberry Moon – June
  7. Buck Moon – July
  8. Sturgeon Moon – August
  9. Harvest Moon – September or October
  10. Full Corn Moon (Harvest) – September
  11. Hunter's Moon (Harvest) – October
  12. Beaver Moon – November
  13. Cold Moon – December

A week back, I took a photo showing a ring around the moon. It is meant to be good luck to see that (according to Japan) and for my birthday next month, I7m allowed to get a new MacBook Pro 13 inch! It works!

I'll repost that image here for those who didn't see it in the original post. 


I took this photo with Google Pixel 5 Night Shot mode using Android 12.

Writing Software

My old MacAir can't handle more then 2 GB memory. Can't upgrade. Stingy Apple. I still use it for writing. But, I am growing tired of old version of Scrivener and I have been looking around for other stuff.  (Image: Pexels.com Free stock images) I'll post my fav, a little later.

If interested just highlight the software and right click search for... Works a charm. I could be like those Internet blogs that have aff...

Pen Names

Hello all, I'm debating on whether or not to us a pen name for my crime novels. You see, way back in 2001 when I made my first sale, I used the name Richard Lee ( http://threeand10.com ).

Although I announced the name change to my massive Ning group, MySpace and Twitter, not a lot of people took notice and The Last Church didn't sell as well as it should have with the Richard Lee brand. I had no idea about branding back then. Now, I do. In 2015, I returned to write under the Richard Lee brand and some comments I got were: I wondered what happened to you. Welcome back, Dude.  Missed you. Are you still writing? etc. My books now sell in several languages. Richard Lee wrote horror and science fiction (usually blended together).  Now that I'm writing crime, ( http://www.thriller.nz ) I decided to switch to my real name, and start crime fiction branding (no idea how to do that). But, now I...
