Watch Out, 2015!
I didn’t make resolutions for 2015. Not this year. The statistics are against me keeping them. 90% or more New Year Resolutions are abandoned by Valentine’s Day. I thought I’d dodge the bad odds and do something different, instead. I made an intentions list. It’s long, but each item on the list only gets put
Merry Christmas!
For those of you who are actually on line today that celebrate Christmas, even if it’s just for the turkey and presents, please have a wonderfully happy, argument-free day with your family and friends. May your stocking be overflowing! And because I just can’t help myself, did you know the very first Christmas was celebrated
Who Are YOU Bringing To Dinner?
Remember my post a few weeks ago – the five (six, seven) fictional people I would most like to have dinner with, and why? I got an interesting bag of mail from that one, including a few suggestions for story people I hadn’t thought about in years (e.g., Ann of Green Gables). But there were

Bluebeard Gets His Just Rewards
Did you know Bluebeard was a real man? I didn’t. I’ve found another cool history factoid! I grew up reading the Bluebeard fairytale that warns women everywhere and everywhen about the dangers of curiosity and not obeying your husband (which just underlines when the fairytale was created!).

It was considered a best seller, with print runs reaching ten thousand per year. The Almanack contained weather

I am one of millions of commuters who take public transport to work and back each day. I should resent the huge chunk of time that takes out of my day, except for one thing: I write on my laptop on the way to work and on the way home. In the middle of winter,

What I’m Reading – December 2014
Oh, I’ve had so much fun this month. I’ve been reading stories! Yes, fiction! Romantic fiction at that, too! Transgression (City of God series) R.S. Ingermanson Link This is a time travel novel that falls under the science fiction genre rather than the romance genre (the two most common parent categories for time travels). I

I Faithfully Promise…
I kinda screwed myself over this year. And indirectly, I didn’t do you any favours, either. I had this big (huge!) book I wanted to write, one that took place over thirty years. It was epic in scale, and I just knew it would take up a big chunk of time to get done, as
