150. Lyric: TNT
08:08||Season 1, Ep. 150Can you guess what this is about? It's one of those cryptic lyrics. I'm Herschel Sterling, and I'm here to help.

10:12||Season 1, Ep. 149Another lyric today. They are such pathetic, obvious lunatics. Book formatting is experimental right now. I’m trying different templates and fonts with LibreOffice. There are different extensions and tools for books. I’m going to keep things very simple and not overcomplicate it. Would love to hear any ideas about eBooks and formatting. I have done it before, but maybe there’s something new to try. Thank you so much for listening or reading. I’m Herschel Sterling, and I’m here to help.

Lyric: Bluegrind
09:07||Season 1, Ep. 145Today I started formatting my book of Quick Fiction. That’s right. That’s how I am going to define my reactive writing stories. I’ll be doing 1-3 of my stories per day into that process. In my podcast, I’ll just be loading up one lyric per day from a lot of my old songs until the book is complete. Really very short podcasts. Thanks. I’m Herschel Sterling, and I’m here to help.

The Political Class is Detached From Morality. Their Followers Are Detached From Reality.
22:37||Season 1, Ep. 144People are imaginative about song lyrics and poetry and even short stories, I’m sure. Sometimes people project the wildest things onto other people’s writing. They reveal a great deal about their imaginations and themselves when they do that. The simplest, nicest, most innocuous songs can be heard by some people in the weirdest, and sometimes creepiest ways. It’s pretty gross. Here is all of today's content.I’m compiling all of my flash fiction stories into a book. While I’m doing that, I’ll podcast very short episodes of all of my song lyrics, one at a time. In the process, I’ll be experimenting with another subscription publishing format for formatting the book. The podcasts of the lyrics will be very short and will include the beginning meditation and the concluding send-offs. Sweet dreams.Of course I’m going to talk about the opportunists who take advantage of those personality types. Why would you even think otherwise.142. The Stoics
13:38||Season 1, Ep. 142THE FINALE OF FLASH AUGUST FICTION. Hungry Henry and Rotund Ronald have become pals. Did you ever listen to The Cheeseguard from Flash Fiction February? These two had an impromptu meeting, and they remained cohorts. Today they are avoiding capture by a cat. This is one of several animal stories from this month. Stoicism is a mixed bag. It’s part strength, and part denial, in a way. All of today's content. I hope you liked Flash August Fiction. It’s all over. Don’t worry, though, I’ll be making plenty more stories and adding new content all the time. Please like, subscribe, restack, and all that sharing. Thank you to all the independent, non-corporate media people out there. I hope I can give you some light entertainment once in a while. Thank you so much for listening, or reading.
