Well, the end of another week is here, and things up here are beginning to open up and resemble something closer to normal. I’m going to try and avoid the stores or restaurants, for this weekend, at least, because I know they’ll be busy. As for this blog, I was planning on posting something more along the lines of a short story, but I’m pushing to finish my WIP, so I’ve decided on something a bit less involved.
Born and raised on a farm near Brockville, Ontario, Mark Bierman's childhood consisted of chores, riding horses, snowmobile races across open fields, fishing trips to a local lake, and many other outdoor adventures. He was also an avid reader of both fiction and non.
Transitioning towards adulthood also meant moving from the farm and into large urban areas that introduced this country boy to life in the big cities.
After a short stint as a private investigator, he moved into the role of Correctional Officer, working at both Millhaven Institution and Kingston Penitentiary, until it closed.

Nice share, the one on being a writer immediately caught my eye , couldn’t agree more😊
Hi Mark. These were hilarious. I especially loved the author one. 🙂 And so with you on not going anywhere this past weekend when the cages open up and everyone will stand in line for a seat at a patio. Need the thrill to wear off a bit, lol 🙂
You are absolutely right, Mark, the photos and captions do make me smile and think. You make a great point about the busyness over the next while, especially the weekend. Ha, ha, brain before coffee…the only thing I would add is cobwebs. I am going to use the “smile and nod” from now on. 🙂I always enjoy these posts. They are like an unexpected breath of fresh air.
