This morning I woke up to my husband leaning over my face to tell me that he was going on a run. He does this sometimes out of habit but also because I’ve told him to. You know the mind of a writer. To normal people waking up and finding the person you love missingContinue reading “Saturday Alternate Worlds”

Spaghetti, Meatballs, and Rainbows
Hump Day started the same as every day. A drive in the morning to drop off my husband at work. I always pass a row of trees near the road that hand over the end to shade the street like tall green umbrellas. For a few seconds, I felt like I was driving down aContinue reading “Spaghetti, Meatballs, and Rainbows”
Life Up North
The great fight of the North started at the beginning of the month. The cold of the night clings longer to the mornings and our temperatures have dipped. Those who live in California or down South already have on their Fall coats but not in Minnesota. We wear our shorts and run around in shortContinue reading “Life Up North”
Fall Is In Session!
The school year has officially started and summer ended after Labor Day. We are two months away from NaNoWriMO and my mind is on Preptober. The question is, am I going to do Preptober and Inktober? I bought my ink pad over the weekend to give it a try. I thought I would follow theContinue reading “Fall Is In Session!”
Happy Labor Day!
Happy Labor Day! The last day of the Minnesota State Fair is here but I had my fill of fried food on a stick. My long weekend was filled with running errands and accidents with a hot glue gun. After watching other artists create miniature models out of Amazon boxes, I was inspired to createContinue reading “Happy Labor Day!”
Hallmark Season
This weekend in Minnesota is one of the last few at cabins on the lake for many people before they pull in their docks and store their boats. Those who love finishing make their last few casts for the season during their long weekend. Then, the routine of getting everyone to school and work onContinue reading “Hallmark Season”
Change In Seasons
A change in the month, signals the change of seasons up North. Maybe there are a few more weeks left of hot summer weather but my mind is already thinking about fall and Preptober. It’s time for all of us to get back into our novels after some summer hiatus. This is also our lastContinue reading “Change In Seasons”
Social Media Tips
Opening day of the Minnesota State Fair was filled with downpours, hail, and thunder. It’s a good thing I’m not going for a few days because it’s been a rainy week. No one here would complain about the showers because our lawns look a California brown this year. I’ve said it before, I live upContinue reading “Social Media Tips”
Summary Content
Tuesday is here but I’m still thinking about the weekend. Have you ever had to hunt down zebra or elephant cards with phrases on them? Well, that’s what I did while I was in The Art Shoppe on Sunday. I started to look at the variety of cards from different artists and some of themContinue reading “Summary Content”
Social Media Tips
The week has started again and I’m thinking about pronto pups, funnel cakes, and Matha’s Cookies. Yes! The Minnesota State Fair begins and I already have my ticket. I will be wandering around safely but with my mouth watering like everyone else who missed the fair last year. Last year was modified to tickets toContinue reading “Social Media Tips”
Grade School Ideas for Adults
Midnight passed last night and my mind decided to wake up again. I wandered down the hallway in the dark thinking about my next show. An image of my books sitting on the corner, waiting to be signed passed through my mind and then new ideas started to form. The next thing I knew, YouTubeContinue reading “Grade School Ideas for Adults”
Summer Vacation Is Here!
The end of August is a few weeks again and I feel a shift in the air. Soon, Preptober will be here for the writing community and I will post my progress. This year, I may also participate in Inktober because I never make anything easy. Knowing what’s ahead my blog posts may go quietContinue reading “Summer Vacation Is Here!”
