I haven’t written about one of my novellas in a bit. In fact, it was way back in February that I wrote the blog post about Child of the Sage, when I offered that one for free (HEY-if you downloaded it, read it – I could use some more reviews!). And since I am at […]

Didn’t go as planned
One of my favorite quotes about life is something I’ve posted a few times before. “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.” ~John Lennon, “Beautiful Boy” I say that to myself every time things don’t go as planned. For instance, yesterday (or Friday, if you are reading this blog later […]
Cast Out the Nets Again
Fishing is sometimes a futile activity. Time and time again, you cast out, hoping for a catch. But the bait disappears, or the line breaks, or nothing wants to bite. You wait and wait and wait and nothing appears, or the catches are too small, or not the right fish. All you have is wasted […]
Just a little Saturday ramble
It’s dogeared and worn, the pages a rainbow of highlights. There are margins full of quickly jotted annotations and it’s full of sticky notes and index cards with connections and random notes.

Yesterday, I was so over being around people. I was exhausted beyond measure because I have been pushing myself to do more and more and haven’t had time to decompress. The introvert within me needed some moments without pressure. Despite my exhaustion, I knew I had to find solitude. I needed to recharge my soul. […]
Hope has two daughters
It was a chilly early spring night at the juxtaposition of a dead end street and what had been a corn field the season before, the remnants of the fall harvest still standing as lone sentinels in the softened earth. The sun was beginning to disappear on the horizon and the stars were coming out, […]
Spring is in the air
Twice this past week, I have been able to get outside for long walks of over three miles. While the first walk was done on a day where it was chilly and I had to wear my heavy coat, the second walk was done in just a long sleeved shirt. Spring is in the air. […]
