Come Back In a Few Days
We’ve had an unexpected death in the family and I won’t be posting for a few days. I’ll see you all in a few.

Bah Humbug .. Enter At Your Own Risk
Tendonitis hits the right arm (and you didn’t even know writing a book was a sport.) The problem is when I start a project in earnest I become very impatient and want things to happen RIGHT NOW, which is why the NaNoWriMo project in November was so perfect for me. It’s the kind of thing [...]
Grandma Moses Move Over!
Okay,it’s a bit intimidating to post my very first drawing ever. I feel like I’m bringing a paper home from school for Mama to put on the fridge … one that she has seen a few hundred times before from her other kids at the same age. I have to admit, though, I was surprised [...]
Oh, Well That’s A Little Embarrasing
This reminds me of that old television game show popular in the 1950′s, “What’s My Line?” “Will the real Mr.Joel Saltzman please stand up?” This link is to an article he wrote that is titled, “Writing Like a Person (Not a Mindless Drone). The first link to Mr Joe Saltzman … the one I originally [...]

The Baby Boomer Hits of the 60′s
This is another email floating around that I may be the last to have read, but it sure made me laugh. Again, I wish I could give credit where credit is due because I think it’s very clever. I hope it doesn’t offend anyone but I think it’s funny. For some, it was fun being [...]

Feeding the "Urges"
I’ve had two paperback books (click on books to the left) here on my bookshelf above my computer for some time (probably 7 years at least). I think I’ve read them each a couple of times and read from them randomly quite a few times because they get me enthused about my writing. “If You [...]
Providing Comfort
Baby Girl is here by me at the computer where we hang out together when the morning sun comes through the south window and she can coo and play with her toys here on my floor. A little bit ago when she was fussing I comforted her, changed her diaper, filled her tummy with warm [...]
I Didn’t Mean to Collect Cookie Jars
Years ago I didn’t have a cookie jar and right before Christmas I mentioned that fact to a few people. Soon after that I found this cute Humpty Dumpty in a box full of junk at a yard sale about twenty-five years ago and bought it for a couple of dollars. He was so old [...]
Holy Smackaroli
I think I slightly jumped the gun on my manuscript! Talk about a naive first writer! I have spent the last few days going over, reformatting, editing … soooo much work! I’m learning that the hard part isn’t writing the book the hard part is getting it ready to be read and printed! Give me [...]
Are you Interested in Self-Publishing?
I found a great sight for people like me who are thinking of self publishing. It is called Lulu and can be found here. It actually has a far broader spectrum than that as you can see if you click on “first time visitor” and take the tour. The costs are as good as any [...]
