I’ll get it–I will!I just need a minute or two to think about it…or, you know, purposely NOT think about it. (Because for whatever reason, THAT works.) We all suffer on occasion from that “tip of the tongue” thing.Which, by the way, has a scientific name. Lethologica is the inability to remember a particular word.…

I am happy to say that I spent this past weekend working on book two in my Pandoran Legacy series. No, please sit down, no ovation necessary. Your hearty applause is kudos enough. The follow up to A Stranger’s Child is taking its time to emerge, but every little edit is progress in the making.…

I think I know a lot of people. I think I know a lot ABOUT a lot of people. That’s why I love when I’m having a conversation with someone and they reveal something about themselves that’s new to me. “I did not know that!” Five little words. Common, every day words. But in this…

And… I thought I’d have another chance. I haven’t been to a stadium show in decades. Too many people. Too much money.…

You get it! You get me! You got me. This is why I am missing you. The outpouring of support in response to last week’s post was remarkable. THANK YOU. I was in a mood. I shared. Many of you shared in return. Through texts, comments, phone calls, emails… You were there for me. You…

Some days are harder than others. In general, yes, but especially lately. Hard has become the expected norm. I’m not okay with that. I’m so over the growing divide. How’s that for an optimistic visual?! Me, the bridge over the chasm, connecting the sides! Unfortunately, that’s not what I mean. I’m exhausted by the constant…

Sidebar: If you don’t have that song by Alan Parsons Project stuck in your head already, click here. Blog post: Binge TV is nothing new. Heck, I’ve already written about it several times. But with the COVID lockdown, there’s been lots more, “What are you watching?” Of course it came up during one of my…
