My Dog, the Night Owl
It’s time for a classic Wojo’s World. Enjoy this popular column from a couple of years ago. I’m a morning person. I’m not exactly sure when this happened because I have clear memories of my Mom having to do everything short of setting off a bomb in my room to get me up when I […]
What a Mouthful
It’s time for a classic Wojo’s World. Enjoy this popular column from a couple of years ago. I learned a lot from the pop music of the 1980s. You can wear your sunglasses at night. (I actually tried this in 7th or 8th grade when the song was out, and in retrospect, not only did […]
What’s That All A-Bot?
It’s time for a classic Wojo’s World. Enjoy this popular column from a couple of years ago. I am not a robot. People who have met me in person can attest to this fact. Well, most of them can anyway. In fact, the closest I’ve ever gotten to being a robot was during the ‘80s […]
Playing Chicken

If they don’t make me different, they probably make me weird. And if you read this column regularly, you already know […]
The Bloody Truth
I have friends in England and Wales, and I love when they use the term “bloody” in place of your average curse word. I would get a lot of mileage out of that. But my reference to “bloody” actually refers to the stuff flowing through your veins right now. Clunk…oh, sorry. I believe I bloody […]
A View from a Writer’s Brain
Years ago, a guy asked me if he could shadow me for a day. He was interested in what a writer does, and he wanted to watch me. Unlike other professions where shadowing can help and get someone excited about a profession, writing is not quite that. Or at least that’s what I told him […]
Mourning the Morning
Most people think that I’m a morning person because I tend to get up really early. I am. Sorta. But I’m not a morning morning person. Let me explain.
Stop the Stalking Already!
Remember back in the day, when you could make an appointment—any kind of appointment—and you would write it in your calendar? Then, you know, you’d show up. Easy Peasy. Not anymore.
