The Fictional Life of a Fiction Writer ~ #MondayBlogs

We’ve all seen those funny T-shirts and mugs warning people that THE WRITER is around and ready to put them into the next story. One would think that people would tend not to want to disclose personal info once they’ve been warned “Be careful what you say, you could wind up in my next book.”I adore creating characters that I have (almost) total control over, they take my advice with little argument and even though sometimes they need a bit of nudging, they don’t disappoint. And the best part,...

Not everyone is okay with her ~ SNIPPET SUNDAY, Nov. 12-13, 2016

Hi! Welcome to another Weekend Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday round. Every week writers post 8-to-10 sentences on their blogs from a published or unpublished book.

Hello Young Lovers ~ #MondayBlogs

When I was still a newlywed, we had a huge problem with a really pesky neighbor and it was very frustrating. Totally at my wits-end I telephoned my father and asked him what to do. We had a discussion, I don’t remember the exact words (it’s been a lot of years) — after hearing me out, my frustration and my crying, Daddy told me that he would always be happy to help me out BUT had I told my husband my feelings? I answered something like “Not really”.
Daddy didn’t renege on his offer to help me...

I Understand ~ #MondayBlogs

It becomes a “thing” that simply rolls off of your tongue: I’m sorry for your loss; I’m sorry you don’t feel well; I’m sorry that you got hurt; I’m sorry… And even when you try to express genuine concern, often the words sound empty. Your words are usually appreciated, you’re being polite, but are your voiced sentiments really helping anyone? Too many people make polite conversation that they are never really engaged in.
There is a big difference about being polite and reaching out to offer co...

The truth about lying ~ #MondayBlogs

Most people have lied, some more than others. Children lie to their parents when they are afraid of punishment. Students lie to their teacher hoping for mercy about their forgotten homework. Teens lie to their peers to be popular. A young man lies to a beautiful woman because he is trying to impress her. A wife lies to her husband because she kissed another man. A young executive lies to her boss because she wants a promotion. And on it goes.
Most lies seem harmless, most lies are for self-pre...

Being Invisible ~ #MondayBlogs

There are those of us who hide invisible illness, chronic conditions, pain and fatigue as much as we can. No matter how we hide sometimes it is unavoidable and it’s frustrating when the invisibility turns you into what others may assume is a hypochondriac or just lazy. We function at home, in jobs, with our families or running errands around town, and we don’t look for excuses…
But sometimes the pain or fatigue gets to us and we need a little time to recoup, to rest, to let an analgesic help a...
