ideas when they surfaced
After two weeks visiting family, I’m back in my office, listening to Cobra Poems, drinking coffee, and making plans. I didn’t get much writing done while I was away. I got back in the habit of carrying around a notebook and scribbling out ideas when they surfaced: waiting in the car, falling asleep, or early…

We’re being evicted at the end of March, which is extremely inconvenient considering, you know, a global pandemic and all. Thankfully, we have wonderful friends who’ve given us support (and…

a lot to look forward to
Happy 2021! Hope that you all had a rejuvenating holiday. The past few weeks have been difficult for many of us. We’ve had to watch the attack on democracy in the States. We’ve had to talk about tough subjects with our friends and family. And although seniors and health workers are being vaccinated (yes! excellent!),…

After the word-writing frenzy of National Novel Writing Month in November, I took a week off to recharge and do all the things I put off while working on my NaNoWriMo project. But now, I’m back, and am super excited to share the first chapter of my novel, The Patch Project, with you! The Patch…

It seems like the holidays are happening earlier this year as we all look for ways to make this current global season a little bit brighter!
