While I read The Book of Delights by Ross Gay, it occurred to me that I don’t often use the word “delight.” It seems unfortunate, especially since I am delighted on a regular basis — a tight hug from my son, a smile and a hand squeeze from my husband, the flickering candlelight creating shadows

Now I can laugh about it. A couple of nights ago it seemed far less funny. First you have to understand my husband is addicted to his phone. It is an extension of his arm. If God gave you an option of having a hand or a phone he would choose a phone. He goes nowhere without it – and I mean absolutel

Closing a sale can be viewed as something with a Machiavellian spin to it.  There’s the stereotype of a salesman whose mindset is very fixed: “I'm going to close you.  I’m going to get you to make a decision out of sheer will.”  That is not a great way to approach sales.

The roar of a fiery explosion bellowed through the basement hall. The shockwave pounded the walls and shrapnel shattering into the florescent lights that ran along the ceiling’s electrical conduit. With a flash of sparks, the sterile white walls of the power plant’s utility tunnel became a cerulean Read more of this blog post »

Non so se sia teologicamente corretto, ma a me sembra che tra pregare e andare a messa ci sia la stessa differenza che c’è tra parlare al telefono con tuo marito e abbracciarlo e unirti a lui. Si può parlare con Dio, ma l’unione che ci permette la messa è il moment

The shirt is priced at £55, which must be a record for a charity shop. Granted, it is a “label” and this is Tunbridge Wells. The shirt, even second hand, is clearly intended for a man of superior means. But what species of well-heeled dude seeks “labelled” threads in a charity shop? It seems a s

Okay,
So they tried to beat the spirit out of you
And at times it felt as if that’s all there was
To that life
Did it work? Did they win?
Where are they now?
Still living inside?
Punching outwards?

In today’s digital age, the way we do things has evolved. We write our books on a computer, spell-check them with Grammarly, and publish them on Amazon. The art of marketing a book is no exception to this digital rule. Book launches, in particular, have seen numerous transformations, with many autho Read more of this blog post »

In every writer’s life there comes a time when the question of chapters comes up. How do you divide your story into chapters? How long should you make your chapters? How long is too long or too short? I’m not going to tell you I have all the answers because that would be silly. Besides, […]

 For the past week, my routines have been knocked thoroughly off-kilter, first by campus power outages that moved in-person classes online, then by a wedding and, finally, a sick day, courtesy of a broken tooth.

It’s really nice to see the famous Hi-Power design coming back.

I was in Denver last week for a design sprint and staying in an Embassy Suites. I checked in ahead of time via the Hilton Honors app and went straight to my room.

I was considering my family. The part I am, for somewhat obvious reasons, “estranged” from. While we have dramatically different views we aren’t hostile, we are at the least cordial. Hostility would never do in a proper southern family. We just don’t speak of our differences when we are forced to be
