TIME TRAVEL IN NEW ENGLAND

Real time.   I know what that means.  In common parlance it means clock time, calendar time. I know what lived time means.  It means how long time feels, both living through it and looking back on it. January has 31 days. This year, and most years, to speak frankly, the lived time is about 91…

Time Lost and Found

This blog post does not address the grief many of us experienced as our family and friends were lost to the ravages of COVID-19. It is not my intention to minimize our profound losses, but to offer perspective on time. My heart is with all of you.Trevann It seems nearly every week for the last…

Music Mom

My family is not athletic. Don't get me wrong—we’re healthy, eat right and get exercise, but it is not in our DNA to chase a ball around a field or court. We don’t lace up our sneakers and go run for fun, or find joy in hurling ourselves through space. In fact, the only time…

Moving Forward

I've been trying to prepare my body for a procedure for about 6 months now. I did everything right the first time - and the procedure was cancelled anyway because my body decided to be a troll and do it's own thing, despite medical intervention.

Social media was myspace and livejournal; Facebook didn't become a thing until college. The media loves to vilify us as a…

A matter of time

I have now been in my house for 5 weeks.  I'm not going to lie and say that it's fun.  It's not.  It's a tough slog to get through the day, and I don't have kids I'm trying to homeschool while I'm working from home.  For all those out there with children, God Bless You!…

Floating Through History

For two weeks my husband and I went on a river cruise down the Danube with two other couples who are old friends of ours. On the shore excursions we saw remains of Roman settlements, five-and-six-century-old churches, city centers which survived World War II bombing, city centers that were destroyed and have been rebuilt under…

An Honest Look at Goals

It’s January and every blog and article seems to be suggesting ways to set goals and follow through. Apparently many people are like me. We set goals and may even write them down. Then we never look at them again. With trepidation I looked back at my 2017 writing goals: Finish and publish Wolves Blog…

The Only Love There Is

As a writer of Urban Fantasy,  I live to tell stories that transport you to a super- natural world, one that intrigues you, touches your heart, and entices you to return over and over again. I also hope to give you something to think about.  The characters you meet are a motley bunch of beings:…
