Nanowrimo 2021 – Are you in?

I’ve planned to participate in Nanowrimo every year, well, for years. Work always gets in the way. Not this year! My account is set, initial word count added. The clock starts today! If you’re participating, let’s be buddies. And good luck to us all! I’m excited to …

Double check the locks, look under the bed, say your prayers, and read at your own risk

I'm stoked about the release of Nightmares of Strangers: An Anthology of Eerie, Strange, and Spooky Stories coming October 22. It was so much fun writing "The Costume" and bringing the dead to life, so to speak. Each story brings it own helping of horrors …

FITNESS JOURNEY: Weeks 4 and 5: When you read what I have done, you’ll know why National Lazy Day aint gonna work for me

It’s Monday and the start of an amazing new week. I missed posting last week but am doing a double post today. It’s also National Lazy Day but no lazing for me. What about you? Are you wondering about that danged exercise bike? Has she put it together yet? Well, uhm, that would be a […]

FITNESS JOURNEY: Week 4 – Concerns about coconut sugar, stats update, and staying active

I’m late in posting my weekly update. It’s been a busy and exciting week on the work front! I’m still feeling great and enjoying my products. Admittedly, I have not put my exercise bike together. I have vowed to myself to get that done this weekend. I know I will see even more progress, but […]

FITNESS JOURNEY: Week 3 – From desperation to inspiration to motivation

Jeremiah 29:11 His plans are for our future and to give us hope! This journey teaches me something new every week. Heck. I’m learning something new every DAY!

BOOK REVIEW: Beating the Workplace Bully: A Tactical Guide to Taking Charge by Lynne Curry Ph.D.

At one point or another, most of us have encountered some form of bully in our lives. Some bullies are more subtle than others. You know the kind: the “I’m just joking” or “I just want to help” bully. Add the workplace in the mix and being a victim can quickly turn into a living […]

FITNESS JOURNEY: Week 2 – Feeling Gooood!

It's okay if you don't have a set of weights or exercise equipment. Use what you do have! I’m into my second full week of living healthy, and I’m feeling good. I wish I could say the exercise bike it assembled, but it’s not. I’ve been busy with work, and it’s a two-person job. I […]

FITNESS JOURNEY: Week 1 – Are you for real? It’s National Cookie Day?

So, apparently July 9 is National Cookie Day. How funny and ironic since my post today is about my progress since digging in with my fitness journey on July 1. A little back story, I started trying some products in April. I wanted to be able to see what I liked and what worked to […]

State of the Heart; An honest conversation with myself

I’ve been wanting to write a blog post about the condition of our world and all the suffering the Black community—among other marginalized communities—endure every day, but honestly, I don’t have the words. Or at least the words I feel the Black community deserves. I am a white woman. How can I possibly understand what […]

Impromptu Quarantine Post: Staying safe from the ’rona, sheltering with 2 dogs and a cat, and writing

I hope everyone is healthy and staying safe in these crazy times. I’ve been self-isolating with my dogs and cat. My sister is the only person I’ve visited since the first of March. I miss my children and grandchildren! Crafting with my sister is always fun but it has also kept me sane these past […]
