Where's my Juice?
Hello, Readers All,
And straight up first thing must say: Thank you! Thank you to the premium subscribers who got back to me about the goodies (more on that later) and welcome to new subscribers and big sloppy hugs to one and all.
It could just be a slow recuperation from Covid, end-of-year-blahs, or a simple natural result of writing three to eight new pieces a week for nearly four years....but I'm feeling a little rinsed.
Even so, here's the new stuff that I conjured this week and I'm hoping it hits some spots (you'll let me know).
Can a Happy Man Write a Great County Western Song? | by Remington Write | ILLUMINATION-Curated | Dec, 2022 | Medium
After all, misery is necessary to create great art….right?
Happy, sad, or somewhere in between, I tend to want to know everything and this gizmo in my pocket serves to feed that need. Until it doesn't.

Sometimes a little mystery is a good thing
Here's a thought.
I Have Quite Enough Privilege, Thanks | by Remington Write | The Partnered Pen | Medium
In fact, can I share some with my neighbors?
My forays into other platforms continue as seen by this piece recently published in Newsbreak.

Graffiti is having another NYC momentPhoto byTammy Remington. We don’t really need the New York Post to keep telling us that things are getting even dicier than usual out on the streets of New York City. We’re not blind. Ok, yes, we’re all pretty used to people getting loud and obnoxious — that’s just basic communication in this city — but there has been an unsettling uptick in outright feral behavior in the past year.
My partner in art and life, AleXander, offers this gem that he initially wrote as a 21-year-old living in Chicago in 1973. I love this piece more every time I read it.

there’s a steamboat on this river, just upstream a bit. i know it, and i’m telling you Tommy, it’ll get us out of here.
The hat's by the door and I am deeply grateful for all of you who generously toss coins into it week in and week out. Gracias!
https://ko-fi.com/remingtonwriteExtra credit poll: How's the format working for you? Are five new pieces a week a bit of an overload? Again, you'll let me know.
And with another wink to the premium subscribers, here's that project I was working on back in July. What do you think?
