In a New Yorker article (September 13, 2021), author Amia Srinivasan made this observation: “[…] the Internet, […] has simultaneously given us too much to read and corroded our capacity to read it.” The context was feminism and what we think we know about it, but her description of how […]
I’ve always been indecisive, sometimes very indecisive, but never not indecisive. I wonder if indecisiveness is related to procrastination because I’m afflicted with both conditions. I have worked on my novel a bit here and there, but I’ve been spending the bulk of my creative energy learning punch needle work […]
Wondering about unsolicited writing advice from strangers, whether I should frog my latest knitting project, and what good is LinkedIn for a writer.
As I mentioned some time ago (and where does the time go …), my little-short-story-that-could, “No More Tomorrows,” was being published again (be still my heart) by Z Publishing House in their new anthology America’s Emerging Writers.

I didn’t think I would have it in me to write today. Last night (or rather this morning) I was up until 1 AM. Fortunately I had the day off work, but I kept napping and we had “stuff” to do so I didn’t get to writing again until late. […]
I’m procrastinating at the moment. Past time to go to bed but just a few more minutes on the computer … so I go ahead and check my stats on my blog and I have 12 spam messages. Usually I just delete them, but some of them are quite funny […]
So I’m supposed to be editing my great novel … BUT first I had to tie up some loose ends … literally. Saturday I spent most of the day catching up on bills, and then my hubby and I had to go shopping (interior house paint and groceries with a […]
