It’s all about me

  • You know who YOU are

    I was in Madison and I thought of you. I found a jar of Carmex in my bag and I thought of you. I made mac’n’cheese and I thought of you. I saw a red convertible Mustang and I thought of you. I heard a commercial for 1-800-Kars-4-Kids and I thought of you. I ate half a batch…

  • A few weeks ago, I was on a Carnival cruise from New Orleans to Mexico. Have you cruised? Spent time on a ship sailing south with total strangers? If yes, then you’ll know–Cruise ships are a microcosm of anatomy on parade. Not just a collection of people from strange lands and foreign cultures, all races, religions, beliefs…

  • Coming soon…

    I discussed my blog with people at the writers’ conference last week. “I blog every Monday,” I bragged. But this is the second week in a row that Monday has been missed. Ever diligent, Tuesday it is. My head is aswirl with ideas to share! Too many, in fact, to do justice to any. While I…

  • Freeing Time

    I am cutting back on my obligations. I’m retiring from my voluntary career. After six years of dedication to In Print Professional Writers’ Organization, I’m stepping down. No longer on the board in any capacity, nor lingering in the peripheral with ancillary duties, I’m done. This includes Word of Art. After three amazingly successful, fulfilling,…

  • Before the fall…

    Before the fall…

    I fully expect to skin both knees. To roll an ankle or miss the last step completely and land on my butt. Hard. If pride goes before the fall, my wipe-out is inevitable. Because I couldn’t be more proud. We just wrapped up Word of Art 3 and it was everything I hoped, planned, and…

  • I mentioned in my 2017 To-Do List that I follow a blog known as The Introvert’s Dictionary and that I’d like to create a Writer’s version. I also recently stated that I’d be posting random blogs. Like this one! 🙂 I want to do all of the letters now. I is for Impatient?  Click to see my…

  •   It has occurred to me that if I wait for Mondays to post reviews, The Writer’s Alphabet, and general blogs, I’ll never get through everything I want to share. Call me crazy, but I’m going to start posting when I have something to say! I hope you enjoy these random updates. What am I…
