Introverts, Unite! …Separately. …In Your Own Homes.

Yeah, I wish I could take credit for that title, but I know I really can't. I've seen the image floating around for a while now and it's always made me smile. I'm a major introvert, and always have been. Likely always will be. But I'm in a situation now that I've never been in … Continue reading Introverts, Unite! …Separately. …In Your Own Homes.

Inspiration Wednesday: What to Wear, What to Wear…

I've done a lot of talking about how to personally inspire ourselves, and who knows, maybe I'll come back to that. But right now, I'd like to bring it back to what we're actually all here to do: write. (I know, gasp! What?! Writing?! Who gave me the authority?!?) And I know I'm a little … Continue reading Inspiration Wednesday: What to Wear, What to Wear…

Blog Hop Stop: Here Off the Beaten Path

Well, I don't quite have the accolades that my dear friend Amanda over at The Spotted Writer has, but I've been dutifully plugging away at this blog consistently since January of 2013, and off and on since 2008.

And it's often the one piece of the process … Continue reading Inspiration Wednesdays – …Wait, What?

Someone had shared a picture which said "No one should be shamed for reading" and it had a picture of a little paper book and an e-book reader holding hands. Very cute. With the reblog, the poster says, "YES. I’m … Continue reading On the Subject of Books

Inspiration Wednesday: Other Authors

All right, I promise that one of these days I'll stop harping on and on about one author over and over again. But I wanted to write this up, and this seems like a good enough place. It almost takes over Thursday's post about writing as well, but I won't let it. But the simple … Continue reading Inspiration Wednesday: Other Authors

Book Review: Spots the Space Marine

This is an interesting review to write. It's very long coming (since I finished it probably months ago now), and it's not a style of book I've read often, but it's M.C.A. Hogarth, and...well, if you've been around long enough, you know my opinion on her. (If you haven't, it's that I'll read anything Micah … Continue reading Book Review: Spots the Space Marine
