My Biography Title – “Dork Mode”

Daily writing prompt
If there was a biography about you, what would the title be?

My biography title would be called “Dork Mode; The Life and Times of Tony Burgess” and it would be the most boring thing anyone would read. Really it would be dull.

A Dream Home

Daily writing prompt
Write about your dream home.

I have a comfortable house, and the mortgage payments are reasonable. I think I am OK there.

What I would most like to see is for others who need a safe place to live and to have their own roof over their heads. Homelessness and affordable housing is a problem everywhere. In the 21st century, no one should be without a proper dwelling. Housing should be something basic everyone should be able to have access to. To me, that would be a dream home or just dreaming of a home.

My Higher Education Adventure

I started my college journey at Chattanooga State Technical Community College in 1988. I flunked out.

Describe A Man, Well Two Men

Daily writing prompt
Describe a man who has positively impacted your life.

I am going to say two men. My father and grandfather were great people who influenced me to be who I am. Without them, I can say I wouldn’t be the geek/nerd that I am. They taught me to be a sensitive, caring, and loving man in my own way. I can say I will miss them this holiday season as they are no longer with me. They are still with me in my heart and soul.
