“Creative Sparks: Navigating Feedback and New Ideas”
Great class today! Not that most of my creative writing class time isn’t great—it is—but today I received some feedback on my Dating Die-Sasters novel. One of my classmates gave me some really good feedback, and then my professor shared his thoughts. I’m thrilled that he is okay with me using my book for class […]
Some Hidden Costs of Adulthood: A Personal Journey or Rant🤪
What Is It With Growing Up? 🤪 I remember when I was a teenager, not quite 13, I had a friend in her mid-twenties. She wisely told me, “Don’t rush growing up; have fun because it’s not all it’s cracked up to be. You have to pay bills, find a job, and take care of […]
Hello and Happy Mid-Week!
Sunday I wrote about my weekend getaway. This is an addition to that post. On Sunday, after I had already published, I found this quaint little metaphysical shop. After walking around a bit and talking with one of the owners, I was inspired to ask if they would be open to carrying my books. She […]

Poetry and Weekly Goals Update
This week has been interesting. I’ve spent a good portion of it questioning myself about a very important decision regarding my health. I’m not ready to elaborate just yet. The rest of the week followed my regular schedule of taking care of the dogs, my Sweetheart, goals, art projects/drawing, and class. Other than health concerns, […]
