{The Sunday Post} — Gunsmoke & Grit

**April 26, 2025** - Guess who’s back! I’m hoping to hit publish at the stroke of midnight this week—let’s keep our fingers crossed that technology is on my side! This past week hasn’t been a whirlwind of excitement, but hey, the Kansas City Royals have been on a winning streak, so that’s something! As a proud cord-cutter, I’ve found myself tuning into baseball games through an app. Currently, the Royals are sitting at a decent 13-14, not too shabby, right?

Now for some thrilling news—I’ve launched a new blog, Gunsmoke & Grit (https://gunsmokeandgrit.blogspot.com/)! I wanted to dive into the Western genre, knowing that many of my readers might not share that interest, so I created a space dedicated solely to Western Fiction. I’m starting from scratch on a free Blogger site, and while it’s a work in progress, it just went live yesterday with my review of Hanging Justice by Jake Logan, the old paperback I mentioned in last week's post. It’s a bit lonely there with zero followers, so if you’re intrigued, I’d love your support!

{Sunday Post} — Bookish Adventures

April 18, 2020 - I hope you are all doing well! I'm feeling surprisingly good lately—maybe finally shaking off that pesky flu. My sleep has improved, and my reading enthusiasm is slowly creeping back. As for my blogging? Well, it’s a work in progress, but I promise more reviews are coming!

Oh, and Happy Easter to everyone!

{Sunday Post} — Old Western Gems!

What Am I Reading?

It's that time again—another late-night scramble for my Sunday Post! To be honest, I had every intention of posting earlier this week, but life threw me a curveball, and here I am, squeezing it in at the last possible moment.

Last week was a whirlwind. I didn’t even get around to starting a new book until Friday night! But I'm thrilled to dive into Robin Cook's Bellevue. This medical drama has a fascinating Gothic vibe that keeps me on my toes. As of page 203, I'm hooked! I expect to wrap it up by Wednesday, which will pave the way for my next read: Mark Greaney's Midnight Black.

What Am I Reading?

It's getting pathetic at how slow my reading has been lately. I've put bookmarks inside Midnight Black, Bellevue, and Shot in the Back, but I've yet to begin reading any of them. I'm currently reading an eBook, so when it's finished, I'll move on to one of these if I don't get distracted by other things.

{Sunday Post} — Spring is the Season of Renewal

Billy Burgess Sunday Post ,

Have you ever felt completely burnt out—physically, emotionally, and mentally? Well, that’s precisely what I’ve been experiencing when it comes to writing, blogging, and even reading. After a much-needed short break, I’m back and bursting with renewed focus!

What Am I Reading?

As I pen this on a Saturday afternoon, I’m diving headfirst into chapter seven of C.J. Box’s gripping Battle Mountain, and I’m determined to finish it by Monday. On my Kindle, I’m engrossed in Ted Bell's Monarch by Ryan Steck, with my sights set on wrapping that up by Tuesday. After that, I’ll be diving into the thrilling worlds of Robin Cook’s Bellevue and Mark Greaney’s Midnight Black.
