Your Dreams Don’t Expire—They’re Just Waiting for You to Take the First Step🤔👟🥿🥾👠🩴🙃
When writing my Sunday blog, there was something I didn’t mention—or maybe I left it out on purpose so I could save it for today 🤷🏼♀️… That is: Age should not matter when bringing dreams to life. We may not have as much time to get things done as we once did, and we may […]
Looking Back, Living Forward!🦋
What Would Your Younger You Think of You Now? The other night, I was watching a show where the four main female characters looked back at their teenage selves and how they had handled a situation. Their adult selves were dealing with a similar experience, which brought about the remembrance scene. They came to realize […]
Midway Milestones and Manuscript Moves
Today, I printed out all the pages of my book that are completed so far.I still have several chapters left to write, but I wanted to get a head start on editing. Yes, I know—it’s considered a big writing “no-no” to edit while you’re still drafting. I’ve heard (and read) it’s better to let the […]
When the Song Won’t Quit—Let It Move You!🎶🎧🎵
This morning, I woke up with a song in my head—and it stuck with me the whole day. The song? Bad Habits by Ed Sheeran. What I usually do when this happens is play the song on repeat until I don’t want to hear it anymore. So, I popped on my headphones, planning to listen […]
Where the Characters Lead Me: The Final Chapters 📖
Hello and Happy Mid-Week! I almost opened this post with something close to what Lady Whistledown says to greet her readers. For those who may not know, she’s a character from Netflix’s Bridgerton series. I’m a huge fan and often wonder how best to start each week’s blog. I don’t want to bore you—or repeat […]
Off-Kilter: A Slightly Sideways Week
Hello everyone! I hope you’re all having a great week. I’m personally at a slight loss for today’s article. My timing has been a bit off today, too. Why? I have no idea. Some days we just need to stop and take a break. I didn’t really rest this past weekend; in fact, I did […]
From Chaos to Creativity: Easter, Art, Writing, and a Wild Week Ahead🎨🤪
Hello and Happy Easter, My Friends! Easter, like Christmas, brings to mind thoughts of fun with friends and family, celebrations, and of course, the religious images many of us were brought up to believe in — a day of rest and time with loved ones. For me, it started off extremely slow. I overslept (not […]
Can a Well-Seasoned (Not Old) Dog Learn New Tricks? I Think So! 🐾
My question, “Can you teach a well-seasoned dog new tricks?”, is one I’ve asked myself several times recently—well, several times in the last six months. And of course, this isn’t about training old dogs. I know—I have enough of them! But this isn’t about dogs. Also, I prefer words like well-seasoned, vintage, and classic to […]
The Echo Of A Dream ~ Brought On A Loss of Words
Hello and Happy Sunday! Some may say it’s rare for me to be at a loss for words, but today, I kind of am. I think it’s because of the semi-bad and gross dream I had this morning. I’d rather not go too deeply into it, but I will say it involved death, decay, animals, […]
Dag Gone It! When Schedules Go Off the Rails
Missed my self-set deadline to get my blog posted on time. Why did I miss it, you may ask? I slipped… I was doing really well with my schedule—going to bed early and getting up at a decent time—except for the last few days, which means I slipped back into my old bad habits. Today […]
