Book review now up!
Hello, Write Edge readers! I’ve posted my latest review for you. Here’s an excerpt of my post on The Secret Series by Pseudonymous Bosch: [M]ost of the credit goes to Bosch for his sparkling writing. He treats his readers as equals, co-conspirators, and he doesn’t hesitate to reprimand, warn, and cajole those readers as he sees […]

Striving for monotony
Hello, Write Edge readers! We got to watch the first snow of the season arrive yesterday and blanket our yard as well as the street and our neighbors’ yards and driveways. Even as I felt a pang of reality that winter is here, I also couldn’t help marvel at the beauty of the white powder. […]

Latest Spurts now posted!
Hello, Write Edge readers! I’ve posted my latest adventures in parenting. Here’s an excerpt: “But I thought you’re an artist,” I said. “Shouldn’t you know about this stuff?” She gave me a “duh” look. “Yeah, I’m an artist, but I’m not an interior designer.” Well…of course.
