This is the personal blog of Walt White. I am a Drafter/Designer living in Berks County, PA. I have a fondness for Cigars, Photography, and Firearms. Take a look around and you may find something interesting regardless of how different your hobbies may be from my own.
Since many of my visitors know me from Stogie Review, you are probably well aware of the annual Cigarfest event put on by Cigars International. Just like the last year, I was fortunate enough to attend as a member of the press and report on the event. With Jerry and Brian busy, it was just [...]
It’s Friday and you know what that means, Fiction Friday! This weeks prompt from Write Anything was “My husband doesn’t know, but he will soon”. When I read the prompt, the first two ideas that came to mind were discarded. I wanted to try and work a story wasn’t too predictable and went with something [...]
The last few days have been rather busy and coming up with a post idea was difficult. While puffing away on a La Flor Dominicana Air Bender, I stared at my computer struggling to find something to write about. The only thing that came to mind was to post the outline I created for my [...]
With no end in sight, I though this story could benefit from a little organizing. In addition to jotting down some thoughts for future entries, I thought it would be worth-while to include a map. The map itself isn’t anything fancy but it helps me to have something to glance at as I progress the [...]
This weeks Fiction Friday prompt on Write Anything was difficult for me. The last few prompts caused an idea to spring to mind which I then formed into a story. This time around I spent several days simply trying to come up with a storyline to fit the prompt. It wasn’t until I tried mind [...]

A couple of months ago I was having a conversation on Twitter with Dennis Camacho when he sent me a link to a website to track the things I was reading. He had mentioned that he tried the site and thought I could benefit from using it as an avid reader. The name of the [...]
This weeks Fiction Friday entry for the Write Anything blog started off rather confusing. Last week there was a mix-up with the prompts and the one I was expecting to use, for this week, became an option for last week. With that prompt being offered as an option for last week, an entirely new prompt [...]
This is yet another continuation to my Write Anything Fiction Friday entry entitled The Creeper. This is the shortest of the three entries but I think this helps close out the journey to the cabin. I think that I’m going to edit and combine all of the pieces after one of two more installments. At [...]
If you couldn’t tell by the last several posts I’ve made, I’ve been bitten by the creative writing bug. I’ve always enjoyed writing and up until recently have stuck with informative and opinion posts. On a whim, I decided to do a little creative writing and take it for a test drive, so to speak. [...]
Yesterday I posted my Fiction Friday entry for the Write Anything blog. Despite having a clear idea of what I wanted my piece to be, I found myself quickly running out of time. I managed to write the early portion of the story which left the storyline hanging. What happened to Tom? Where did he [...]
With the dawn of a new Friday, I have yet another Fiction Friday submission for the Write Anything blog. Like any other submission, this piece is unedited and is based off of the given prompt. The prompt for this week was “A child walks in to a resident haunted house and is transported to another [...]
On Sunday my wife made a passing mention that there was a movie coming out later that evening that she wanted to watch together. I probably gave her a small smile and nodded my head as I continued with what I was doing. Later that afternoon, my wife reminded me that we were going to [...]
Over the last week I have been posting a variety of things that revolve around creative writing. Just as you may have guessed, I’ve been bitten by the creative writing bug and have been taking advantage of it to create content for my personal blog. On my latest post, I received a comment that I [...]
After nearly a week of anticipation, the time has finally come to post a Fiction Friday submission which will be included in the other Write Anything submissions. As you may have noticed throughout this past week, I’ve been posting creative writings based on older Fiction Friday prompts. With the release of the latest batch of [...]
