We had friends over this weekend. For most people that probably doesn't sound all that unusual. But for us, it is. Our home is our sanctuary. It's where we're safe and free to be exactly who we are. That means we don't often have people over. And the few we do are people we've known… Continue reading Nut wrapped glitter fun
Today, we met Ada99, Marge90, and Angela. They made me think about time. We were leaving the parking lot, chatting about something. Who knows what. There were three older women crossing onto the pavement (sidewalk) beside us. Suddenly, the one with a walker tips backward, and knocks over the one behind her. The third lady… Continue reading Time will tell

I love fairy tales. And I especially love remakes of fairy tales, spins that twist the original into something new. With that in mind, I sat down to write my own fairy tale, about fairy tales. And I'm loving it. It's a lot of research, and I keep stopping to fact check, but I really… Continue reading A tale, coming soon.
I don't tend to read my reviews, as I'm too thin skinned. The last bad one I read kept me from writing for months. But it's great when I hear about a review that has come in, like the one below posted on Goodreads: Wow! When I first heard the premise of this book, the… Continue reading 5* Review for Fury’s Bridge
