This beginning section was a way to 'save', and a workspace for the books I was working on. They are now published, not under my pen name as I am using here, but under my known birth name of Stephen Meiner. They are available for 'Print on Demand' at Barnes & Noble. If you know me, you probably know how to contact me ...or some member of my family. I also added 'Chain-Link Fences' to the titles listed here. And the Evolution of Confusion was a bit long, so I felt it was better to publish it in 5 parts. I always prefer the hard copies, instead of reading the computer screen (though I was able to include a few more pictures here that are relevant to the stories, especially 'So Loved ...) ---and also, for the hard copies Draft2Digital was able to give me bold print for easier reading, then they allowed me to list it out to other book outlets, so they can work with those who work with 'Print on Demand'. I'm not good ...actually I'm quite poor with promoting myself, and also have no funds to pay someone else to do it (which is fine). I don't want to be like those little girls selling Girl Scout Cookies, where you feel guilty if you don't help the little girl (not criticizing that, it's just not me, and I would not sell girl stuff ...and couldn't even see myself ever pushing any of my two daughters to do it ...though they are good cookies). If you are going to buy any of my books I want it to be because you like to read, are interested in reading my book, and feel it is worth reading (and perhaps if you feel the same way after reading my first book, you can tell others). And I do have nine books out ---'nein' in German means, 'No!', and I will not be hurt if you say 'No!' And 'mein' means 'my' (Das ist mein Buch) ---but it's not like the seagulls in 'Finding Nemo', where they are all saying, "Mine, mine, mine ...mine". I am willing to share 'my' books. But, again ...I do not want anyone to feel obliged to say, 'Yes'. And I am saying, "No! No Girl Scout Cookie sales strategy ...please!"
Okay, now ten books ---I just added 'We Should Also Love One Another', in October 2023. That is nine this year, and 'So Loved ...' in December 2022.
If you do by chance come across this blog, and are able to read it without any warnings of 'not secure site' coming up, (when I often saw 'not secure site', I felt they were either telling me it was unsecure ...or were they talking about my personality, of me being insecure. Whatever the case, I can laugh about it) ---and that aside, I now want to show my appreciation to Draft2Digital, not only with their making publishing possible for me, but also for all the free help and loving guidance when I needed assistance.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
The Gospel According to John, Chapter 3, verse 16.
So Loved ... http://solovedsynopsis.blogspot.com/
So Loved…
In recent years, much has been revealed as to the horrors and abuses that take place on a regular basis, though in the past have seldom been reported. I have had a slightly different perspective, but others have told me that my employment at a mental institution and then at a prison has given me a much darker view of life than what the majority of people experience in their daily lives. But, sadly, my writing has become more relevant ...and a much more accurate disappointing reality.
(https://sometimesanovelidea.blogspot.com/) ...Must we have both the knowledge of good & evil???
Some say that ignorance is bliss ...but, that's not the impression I get when I read the Bible. Yet, though no person may want to be denied their thoughts (or choices) ...it is my belief that everyone should be aware of God's thoughts.
You may say that is not possible, as God is infinitely omniscient ...and also omnipresent, knowing and understanding beyond our comprehension, so how can we hope to even begin to understand Him. And you are right ...in contrast, we barely know anything at all. But, we have what God has chosen for us to know ...in the Bible.
I've tried to make some rhyme ...but, mostly tried to reason out the events in my life. And I've tried to understand why things have been made known to me ...working in a Mental Hospital, and also a prison. Perhaps much of these four stories were my attempts to cope with those often difficult revelations ...and the struggle for understanding & reason, and even sanity at times. Be as it may, the story follows this progression:
- 'So Loved ...' [https://sometimesanovelidea.blogspot.com/]
- 'The Curious Whether & How' [https://sometimesanovelidea.blogspot.com/2018/05/blog-post_35.html]
- 'Do the Birds in the Wilderness, Stop Singing Their Songs?' [https://sometimesanovelidea.blogspot.com/2018/05/blog-post_12.html]
- 'The Evolution of Confusion' (in some form, or another ...listed in four parts. Or maybe four-teen??) I*[https://manypeoplehaveapenname.blogspot.com/]

Sometimes a tired person also needs to unwind ...to relax, and bring the mind to a more peaceful state before falling asleep. Better to fall asleep relaxed ...than tense. Sometimes a bit of ice cream does the trick.
(Also notice the galactic swirl ...similar to that on the car tire.)
It should be no mystery as to how I could have come up with the design for the book, The Evolution of Confusion. But, if you still don't get it ...perhaps it would serve you well to either have a little ice cream, or to sleep on it (the idea, not the ice cream).
Now, onto the tedious task of the blogs ...
...How've you been doing????

So, though what is starting out as an attempt to organize ...may begin to jumble a bit afterwards, but it is at least an attempt.
What we aspire to as a nation ...includes you and me.

...or this: (https://www.blogger.com/profile/09515843934500357681)
Those links list them all in a rather random fashion, but they're all listed there. As I said, my tedious task is to put them in some sort of more organized groupings, so my attempt will be the following: (http://thispartisnotfunyetseemsnecessary.blogspot.com/)
Yes, I linked you back into this loop ...so, if you are to get out of the loop, then don't 'click' there again. I don't belong to any loop ...and this is no group, or dupe. There are 'Older Posts' after this also (at the near bottom).

The Evolution of Confusion access: Stephen Meiner ... Beginning with our emotions, the loss of a love, and the anger that attempts to control us. Also mentioning how Elisabeth Elliot coped with it, with bringing love against fear and evil.

(You may ask …”Where is the mention of Queen Lee and Queen Aling??” Well, that is another story …& a tragedy that neither king wanted to talk about. The two kings had first met when they’d joined forces to catch the wicked peddler who'd sold an elixir to all the moms, many of whom had multiple births …and who were easy prey for someone peddling promises of increased vigor. I will respect the kings, and not talk about it further …& simply say that's why the queens are not in either of these stories.)

There was a Lee Dynasty ...with dozens of kings, over hundreds of years. This next story happened much before the King Lee who had befriended King Aling. You will not find it on Ancestry.com though.
