Day 10 of the Love Write Now Pledge

Fun fact about me – I will randomly burst out in musical theatre songs. I. Love. Musicals. 🥰😍🥰🎭 My love affair with musical theatre began as a young child whose parents played soundtracks for me when I was sick. From then on, my spirit knew its home. I’ve written many times about the various showsContinue reading “Day 10 of the Love Write Now Pledge”

Queen Jennifer and Me: A Personal Reaction to SIX THE MUSICAL

Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Catherine Parr – all Queens whose lives have been retold and reshaped to suit history’s story. Were my sister Jen (a history buff and lifelong feminist) alive today, she’d be none too pleased with how little I knew of these Queens beforeContinue reading “Queen Jennifer and Me: A Personal Reaction to SIX THE MUSICAL”

I SoulJourned into New York City this weekend for the inaugural BroadwayCon event – a celebration of the musical theatre community.

Days 101 & 102 of the 111 Day Writer’s Journey: My 2016 Goal

I don’t know about you, but I start each new calendar year resolved to be more focused, organized, healthier, and/or financially stable. I set lofty goals that I stop reaching for around mid-February. Then, I slip on the coat of guilt, shame, and embarrassment as penance for my lack of resolve and determination. This pastContinue reading “Days 101 & 102 of the 111 Day Writer’s Journey: My 2016 Goal”

Sunday SoulJourn: Spiritual Visit

20 September 2015 Just in case you haven’t heard, the Pope is coming to Philly! This would be a bigger deal for me if Catholicism, or Christianity in general, still offered solutions to my spiritual needs. Quite a few years have passed since I last found solace in the religion which I once treasured. ForContinue reading “Sunday SoulJourn: Spiritual Visit”
