Trees
If you follow me on Instagram, you will notice I post a great deal about trees, especially right now. I have always had a love for trees. I have no recollection of when I first fell in love with them. but I remember many a time spent outdoors, old blankets stretched out on the lawn, […]
More self doubts and nonsense
“Tryna find the magic. Tryna write a classic. Don’t you know, don’t you know, don’t you know? Waste bin full of paper, clever rhymes, see ya later. These words are my own from my heart flow.” Natasha Bedingfield “These Words” I’m currently working on the edits of the eleventh book in the Portals Series, titled […]

Bots, Reviews, and Scams
Like any wannabe writer (oh hey, that’s in the name of my genealogy blog *wink*), I post a great deal to some social media sites. I have an author page set up on Facebook, of course, and I use Instagram a great deal. I use them in hopes that interest will be drummed up for […]

Valentine’s Day
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. It’s traditionally a day associated with love, romance, and of course, a ancient saint from Roman times. I have mixed feelings about the day and always have. On one hand, it’s an over-commercialized day filled with a bunch of expectations and hype and let downs. But on the other hand, it’s […]
Sky
I love looking at the sky. I have always been a cloud watcher. I have always watched for raptors soaring and various birds in formation. I have watched planes landing or taking off from the nearby airport. I have watched many a storm go by, illuminating the skies with spectacular light shows. I have watched […]
