Non writing related.

Sometimes I feel like there is NOTHING in the world that is ‘non writing related’. Seriously, I take a bath, and start analyzing the sound of the water, the feel of it…so I can write about it more realistically. I find myself taking notes on what my kids have said, in case I ever [...]

On husbands, jobs, books that won’t die, and new projects

Sorry I don’t have a witty, snarky, semi or full out rant to post today. I’m just too…busy. But here’s a quick update on moi, because it’s Thursday dammit and I have to post something.
Y’all will be pleased to know I’ve decided to let Army Guy live. As Crys says I’m too pretty for jail [...]

The Weirdness Of Growing Older

Congratulate me. I’ll be celebrating 39 years of existence next week. My mother didn’t think I’d make it. Here I am, on the cusp of 40, and I’m wondering if I’m ever going to learn to clean my house.
Don’t grownups do stuff like that? You know, file stuff and mark boxes [...]

Anti-Clown Therapy

Okay I wrote this really REALLY long winded boring thing about the history of writing and how we are all cool and stuff-but Crystal had to pull the clown card, and I felt we needed a new visual-something to help all those terrorized people who are even now calling their therapists to deal with the [...]

Clowning Around

I’m afraid of clowns. They creep me the hell out. So, in order to share my creepy terror, I give you…celebrities made over to look like clowns. Gaaaaaaaaaaah!
Everyone’s favorite elvish princess.

I wish this clown would Die Harder. Now. Cuz he’s freakin’ me out, man.

Matrix 4: Clown Loaded.

Dr. Evil. If you don’t die in his hospital, [...]

Inspirational Movie Kisses

I’ve discovered a miracle cure. Seriously, a full-on endorphin-producing, alpha wave-making wonder drug. Well, actually, it’s not a drug. It’s also not new. But, it does work wonders and is considerably cheaper than my previous treatment for writer’s block, stress, illness, Real Life or any other noxious states of being: Retail Therapy.
What is this paragon [...]

There will definitely be lots of chaos, mayhem, and fun…you know, the usual things we often tend to do!!! Which are usually ALL Crystal’s fault. So, come on over and join us! I dare ya!

Now what?

I’m late posting today because, in the face of Lori’s brutal honesty, I wasn’t sure what to say. Do I address it head on? Post something completely unrelated? Pretend I actually had my post ready ahead of time so I have an excuse to ignore the reality of what was posted yesterday?
So, obviously I decided [...]

Thanks Y’all

I was going to respond in comments, but it got so long I thought I’d just do another post lol!
Thank you everyone for your responses. First let me say, I won’t stop writing. Even during my 60-80 hour week Army days I wrote. I wrote crap, but I wrote dammit lol. Submitting though, I’m not [...]

How Do You Know?

This is a question I long to ask my mother, but have never dared. She was a painter that went to law school. And when she finished law school this painter, this painter who’d illustrated NY published kids books, quit. I remember the last painting, can see it if I close my eyes. A lush, [...]
