Who, exactly, am I welcoming back? All of you, since there has been nothing to read for all of November? Me, because I haven't blogged for all of November (which would explain why none of you have read nothing)? Maybe...it's welcome back to all of us! November was...an interesting month. NaNoWriMo went very well, and … Continue reading Welcome Back!

Prepare for Launch!
Friends and followers, my husband and I returned from our marvelous child-free vacation (more on that later) to find an explosion of sorts had occurred in our absence. I wrote last week about how we are getting ready to launch our twenty-year-old son, not into outer space (though don't think that hasn't seemed like an … Continue reading Prepare for Launch!
October’s Random Thoughts
Readers, I briefly considered skipping my weekly post because I had my Pfizer booster yesterday and I am WORN OUT, which is exactly how I felt after the second dose.

You … Continue reading Celebrating a Thing That Shouldn’t Exist!

(And So Many Parentheticals!)
August is Here!
Man, procrastination has really been getting me lately, and it's not just the Summer Olympics (this week, I watched basketball, volleyball, a ton of canoe and kayak sprints, and a little equestrian) that has me distracted, though the Games are the primary reason my polish work on Whatever Will Be has stalled. Ah, well. If … Continue reading August is Here!
I Don’t Want to Talk About It
There's an inevitable question when another person finds out you are writing/have written a book. "What's your book about?" Ugh. I usually answer shortly, and probably more rudely and sternly than I intend, "I don't talk about it." And for the most part, I don't. Sometimes, if I'm feeling generous, the asker might get the … Continue reading I Don’t Want to Talk About It
