Oh! Rhonda Stapleton, a talented author (YA and adult) & fab person whom I chat with on occasion, is a part of a cool new website called fictionistas. Go check them out!!
Today was one of those days where I had presumptions. Firstly, anyone who does anything in the writing world knows it’s stupid stupid stupid to have those. Normally I […]
Our new house backs onto a beautiful chunk of land - no “neighbors” behind us. So I’m outside in the back the other day, checking out the shed, and I notice that on one of the sides, there’s a door with chicken wire. Lo and behold, the very nice man who owns the land behind […]
With my older offspring, I remember St. Patty’s Day as a minimal affair. For this non-cooking sort of soul, that meant running off to the grocery store and picking up some cupcakes that had lovely Shamrock sprinkles and ensuring a splash of green on my outfit to avoid a pinch.

It’s all unequivocal nonsense. But my latest adventure (unlike a Dr. Suess tale) didn’t even rhyme… and contained a negative amount of funny parts…

Licence Person: I see your last name is […]
“From here to there, From there to here, Funny things are Everywhere”

Yesterday, in the most unexpected place, I met such a cool person. Cowboy to the […]
There’s this woman I know… I’ll call her Gianna for anonymity. And here’s the latest adventure in her sad, sorry tale…
