Unshelve the Writer: Week 2 Check-In
Week Two – Character & Dialogue Fun fact – I love reality TV baking challenges! I can’t bake to save my life, but am so impressed (and slightly jealous) of those who can. Bakers create stunning artwork with their culinary skills, even when thrown a “twist” in the midst of the challenge. Since this isContinue reading “Unshelve the Writer: Week 2 Check-In”
Week 1 Showcase: Unshelve the Writer
We did it my friends! We completed the initial week of our seven week challenge. I struggled to be honest. Wrote bits and pieces, volleying between journaling and poetry until I settled back into the comforting embrace of fantasy. Whether you wrote 500, 1000, or 100 words, be proud of what you accomplished! (If youContinue reading “Week 1 Showcase: Unshelve the Writer”
Unshelve the Writer: Mid-Week One Check-In
We’re midway through week one of the 7-week writing challenge! How’s everyone doing so far? I started off slowly – writing bits and pieces, alternating between journaling and short stories.

Finding inspiration in my own front yard for today’s Motivational Monday Poem!
OPINION: Rebuilding America’s Foundation With Words and Actions
It will take a joining of hands (gloved, if necessary, and reflective of our diverse country), wading in the water to rebuild the bridge intentionally destroyed with hate, anger, fear, and violence.
Motivational Monday Poem: Mourning Glory
Stolen, lost, ripped away Taken far too soon Hearts bleed for the ones No longer present in time or space Souls journey on to a place unknown Resting at home in both peace and power As the ones who mourn Struggle to move forward While time stands still We remain, our lives forever changed ScarsContinue reading “Motivational Monday Poem: Mourning Glory”

Authorship – A Love Story
Not everyone will love my debut novel – such a statement is not a self-defeating one; it’s one based in realism. THE SPIRIT PROJECTOR is a love story in its subplot, yes, but more so a romance of the author and the words I chose. I did not set out to win a race orContinue reading “Authorship – A Love Story”
