Should I celebrate this morning? You are reading this right now and that means that I was able to achieve at least one goal this week. Being able to write a post Monday to Friday isn’t easy when you have a busy schedule but this is all part of following my own advice to continueContinue reading “Jealous Readers”

Circus Time
It’s hump day and I’m repeating the phrase, “my circus, my monkeys,” because the frenzy of building up handmade inventory is in full swing. I’m spinning the dream of having an online store that I can turn into a real income stream on one hand, and my dream of publishing another book on the other.Continue reading “Circus Time”
Summer Romance
I mentioned summer romances and I thought back to a prompt that I started with a writer who looks to escape the noise of the city only to hear the sounds of a chainsaw from the owner of her cabin rental.

Market Adventures

During the summer in downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul you can expect Thursday and weekend Farmer’s markets, Twins game crowds, and many summer music and festival events. Although many locals feel likeContinue reading “Market Adventures”
Writing the Future
Not only did I get my travel bug out of the way but I managed to sneak in a few more episodes of The Mandalorian because a writer’s interest in other worlds is always on upload mode. I thought about how each episode required new sets and my husband proceeded to tell me that mostContinue reading “Writing the Future”
