Writing – Might As Well Laugh

Card Crafting Frenzy!

I am not sure why, but I’ve had a writer’s block so I’ve not worked on my book for a couple of weeks. So, I have been putting my energy into making cards. As promised I plan to try to sell some on Ebay but while I was in the making mood, I’m making someContinue reading “Card Crafting Frenzy!”

When Do We Figure Out Our Worth?

As women we are often made to feel like second class citizens. We are sometimes objects for lust or mothers to everyone. I do not know many women who grew up feeling empowered or comfortable in their skin. I am learning though, that later in life some of these women are finally figuring out whoContinue reading “When Do We Figure Out Our Worth?”

Happy Anniversary To Us!

Has it really been a whole year since we began this blog? When JoAnne reached out to me and said, let’s do this I was not really sure what to expect. But here we are and what a positive influence it has been to both of us! For me, it whet my writing skills andContinue reading “Happy Anniversary To Us!”

Happy Anniversary!

It hasn’t turned out quite like I expected – I actually enjoy writing much more than I ever expected to, and I get annoyed that I don’t have more time to share everything that’s going on in my life. Never thought I would be aContinue reading “Happy Anniversary!”

Might As Well Laugh About It

I love this blog. Is it weird to blog about the blog? When blogs began in the mid 90’s it was not even called a blog. It was called a personal homepage. Now there are MILLIONS of blogs on the internet today. You can blog on Tumblr, Squarespace, WordPress or so many other places. ItContinue reading “Might As Well Laugh About It”

I Am A Cliche

. . .and I think I liked it. You’ve seen it in RomComs and other movies – the writer in a coffee shop getting inspired and working feverishly while sipping coffee they paid too much for. Well, that was ME yesterday! There were even trains passing by that I could see and hear through theContinue reading “I Am A Cliche”

Finishing OTHER

I’m glad I asked my two BFFs to read the rough draft of my memoir OTHER. I felt it had come to a natural end which is always a good thing because we writers sometimes have a hard time stopping. Still, it felt kind of unfinished so I sent it to two women whose opinionsContinue reading “Finishing OTHER”

Is My First Book Finished?

Last night I think I finished my first memoir. I’m not positive. It felt like a good place to stop. I know I still need to proofread and edit but for the most part, I think I’m done with the first book. I plan to have two people I trust to read it and giveContinue reading “Is My First Book Finished?”
