Thank you, Kyle
I am at a loss for words. My racing fan heart hurts. He was my driver. He'd been my driver since he showed up in Nascar. I was frustrated at losses, angry at wrecks, thrilled at the wins. He was brash and rude and in your face and human. He made mistakes, my enemies...
Streets of Minneapolis – Bruce Springsteen
Have You Tried A Gingerdoodle?
I've been baking this year. And y'all have my son to thank for it. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed baking at all, but this year that love has started to come back and I can't tell you how much I've missed it and how happy it's made me to get in the kitchen...
10 Day MiniWriMo
Starting today... There are 11 days left in October and it's been a real shitty writing month for me. There have been some personal things going on and the mood just hasn't been there. Mostly, I'd rather sleep or sit outside and stare out at the trees and mountains......
Play music. Cook. Write. Focus.
The title of this post is a line from the movie Something's Gotta Give. And it's a line that even before I saw the movie, was part of me, was part of my make up, was part of how I get to that place of creativity, that state of just...flow. Diane Keaton was one of my...
So, tell me about your book…
If anyone asks me this question, just out of the blue, my mind is going blank. I won't be able to tell you the name of any characters or if there even are characters. I won't be able to tell you the location the story takes place in. The basic plot? Nope, not that...
The Great Instagram Escape
And man, it's true what they say... No one really cares. The caveat is that for most of us, that is true. No one really cares if we're posting or not. For some, yes. For most, no. That's not a pity party. It's a truth. A realization. Possibly a freedom. I have been...
Come on, Autumn! I’m ready…
It was a miserable Summer. In more ways than one and I'm very glad it's officially over. Today is the first day of Autumn. The temperatures might not reflect it, but the matcha latte in my pumpkin mug, the pumpkin chai wax melt making my office smell amazing, the...
New Release – ALL THAT GLITTERS
I really do love this book. It's been a labor of both love and hate, of so much fear and procrastination. And it turns out the fears have been well founded. But...It's okay. I'm okay. I think... I'm not too sure. This book, this series has been a few years in the...
Music Monday – Back From The Dead by Halestorm
I've been listening to a variety of music lately from different sides of the spectrum... Duran Duran to Miranda Lambert to Taylor Swift to Halestorm. Pop to country to head banging screaming music. Music and my moods have always been connected. I have been angry, sad,...
