The Comfort of That Faraway Sound

Sleep has not come easy for me for the past couple of weeks. There’s a lot happening on the home front. We have vacation coming up in a couple of weeks. There will be fifteen of us from around the nation gathered in a six bedroom house over in Bradenton near Anna Marie Island. We’re […]

? Welcome to another edition of Lisa Burton Radio. I’m your host, Lisa the robot girl, and we’re having a little difficulty getting through to Hogwarts. Maybe we’ll play some music while we wait. I have a Runaways album that’s pretty awesome. Wait, we have a caller. “Hello, You’re on…

Adapt or Die

I’m going through another learning curve, or two or three. You know how I feel about the happiness engineers at WordPress.

Unquiet Mind of a Writer In-between

I never post this late at night, but the RS is out in California, I’m bored, and I have an unquiet mind. I’m trying really hard to be patient with this querying process. Having worked on Naked Alliances for two years, you would think that another span of time wouldn’t make much difference, and yet […]

Me: Then and Now, Opinions Sought

I’m going to be shifting some things around on the blog soon. I had a fun photo shoot recently and I think it’s time to update. The pic in my side-bar was taken nearly ten years ago. A lot can change in ten years. Here’s a comparison of now and then. I had the blond […]
