Pet Peeves
Some people like to make pet peeves their ammunition.
I stole the idea of a question of the day from one of my colleagues. It is a good way to get things rolling in the morning. Just ask a question that everybody needs to answer. It only takes a few minutes and it can be a good way to take roll

Jesus Wept
This past Sunday, Catholics around the world heard the story of the Raising of Lazarus proclaimed by their priests or deacons.

Writing Process Wednesdays, and Midpoint Plot(s) Convergence

Review of The Wool Translator by Tim Schooley

As I’ve mentioned in my posts, my husband and I uprooted our life in Arizona a while back. We moved to Davis, California. After the move, I had to build a new network of local, face-to-face writer friends. That included critique partners.

One Dark Window (The Shepherd King 1) by Rachel Gillig
Stars: 5 out of 5
This book is dark and poetic, cruel and poignant, horrifying and fascinating. I loved every page of it, which is rare for a YA book. So I would say this is a YA book done right. No over emphasis on “feelings” and love triangles, but just good old-fashioned storytell

Back in January of 2021, I found out that I hadn’t correctly submitted my Promotion & Tenure (P&T) report for four years. It’s kind of funny that I have to submit such a report, as I don’t qualify for promotion or tenure, but as I posted at the time, that’s “the way I supposedly get evaluated.” I sa

Noitten sanojen sisällön määrittelee se, jolla on isoin pää ja nyrkit.
