Welcome!


Welcome to Write Up My Alley, the blog page for author, C.L. Beck.

First, let me say that I'm also C. Lynn Beck and C.K. Beck. Uh-huh. I know what you're thinking, "Oh boy, this writer has a multiple personality disorder!" Naw, I just have several pseudonyms. To be truthful, I'll answer to almost any name, including Hey You ... although, I've never actually written a book with that byline.

Second, it seems now might be the time to mention that, although C. Lynn Beck is perfectly capable of writing serious, adult stuff ... oops, that sounds bad ... serious, grown-up stuff, C.L. Beck and C.K. Beck are much more fun and will probably do most of the blogs. Not all, but most. After all, one of the three will need to announce upcoming books, write book reviews, and act like a responsible adult.

So, there you have it. I've told you all about myself, without really telling you anything much at all.

Oh, one more thing. There should be a new blog out here at least once a week, on Monday. With a little luck there might even be two a week. But any more than that would be stretching it.

Thanks for stopping by to read. If you have a moment, please leave a comment. I'd love to hear from you!


What's playing on my radio: Nothing
What's playing on my TV: Nothing
What's playing in my head: Daniel, by Elton John (And I don't even like that song. Ack! An earworm!)

      Mystery Man,

      Ohhhh, there's nothing I love like as much as a good Mystery! :0) By the way, happy anniversary, Mystery Man! Thirty-six years, who'd a thunk it?

      Rebecca,

      Aw shucks. (Blush.) Cat's got my tongue now.

      Ronda,

      Yes, it's hard to believe I finally did it. Now if I can just find an alarm on the page so it'll remind me to write on Mondays.  

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting. And for giving your opinion on who to have host the blog!

      Marsha,
      I thank you, C.K. thanks you, C.L. thanks you, C. Lynn thanks you. (It's too early in the morning to decide who I am, so I thought I'd be all three!) Oh, and the Mystery Man thanks you.

      It was so nice of you to stop by and leave a comment.

    Oooh, a new blog. How exciting. I'll be watching you -- no, not stalking you.

    I'm looking forward to sharing your thoughts. Oh, and congratulations for leaving a footprint in the blogosphere.

      Hi Watchman,

      Ooo, you are a bad kid! Figuratively speaking, of course. (I'll let you figure out if it should be the "bad" part or the "kid" part that's figurative. )

      You sounded so sinister that I hid under my bed with the dust bunnies. I'm sure glad you left your URL so I could figure out who you were ... those dust bunnies were making me sneeze!

      Thanks so much for dropping by and commenting.

        Are you sure it wasn't the marshmallow chicks you brought with you that were making you sneeze?

          Watchman,
          Hey, how did you know I had marshmallow chicks roosting under my bed? Have you been peeking?

          Oh, I see. You thought I brought them with me? Nope, they live under there in order to keep the dust bunnies from getting lonely.

    Loved LOVED LOVED the horse story. Can't wait to read more. Some times e-mail gets eaten up, like horsey oats.

    What will you be blogging on? Childhood memories, tainted by years of knowing better?

      Watchman,

      So glad you liked my story in Cup of Comfort for Horse Lovers. Horses, ya just gotta love 'em. Even when they won't do a consarned thing you want, and blow horse goobers all over you!

      As for what I'm going to blog on ... WHAT? I'm supposed to have a theme? I thought I'd just write about whatever came to mind. Like what I had for breakfast. What I had for lunch. And what I was planning to have for supper. That would give me three blog ideas a day. Oh, what a wonderful muse I must have!

      Shirley, (aka Sweeta Juanita)

      Well, it would be awesome except that two of me keep trying to turn everything into a joke ... hey, have you heard the one about the typo in the church bulletin? It announced a church luncheon and read, "Lunch will be gin at 12:00 noon."

      (See what I mean? C.L. and C.K. just love those kinds of things

      All kidding aside, thanks for stopping by and commenting. You are indeed, a Sweeta Juanita!

      Firetramp,

      Glad you enjoyed the blog and got a laugh out of it. I'd say something witty, but my brain shuts down after 11:00 at night.

      Oh heck, who am I kidding? My brain only functions for one hour a day, anyway, and even then I have to give it a constant supply of Hostess snacks to keep it going! The other day (probably during my one functioning hour), I came up with a great idea for a T-shirt to wear at book signings. The front would say, "Books by C.L. Beck" and the back would say, "Body by Twinkies".

      Okay ... maybe you had to be there during my one hour to get it.

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
