National Introverts Week!

Did you know that last week was National Introverts Week (March 21-27)? It's no surprise if you didn't. Do you expect an introvert to broadcast this and celebrate? Probably not. When I think of introverts, I picture someone who is quiet, reserved, and a bit of a loner. It always seems odd when famous people—actors,…

Word Candy

Language is fluid, always changing to incorporate new words and phrases. I’m old school and absolutely refuse to accept new meanings or made-up words in my speech or text.  My characters will never refer to each other as Bae. They will never call something “adorbs”. Colorful speech bubbles I am far less rigid when accepting phrases,…

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…

The Joy of Reading

On the sofa, reading. I am surprised every time I find out that someone I know doesn’t like to read. Reading is relaxing, almost meditative. A cup of tea, a good book, and a candle is a recipe for a peaceful evening. I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have a book in my…

The Season of (Self)Love

When you think of  February, you picture red hearts, candy, and flowers.  We go to romantic dinners, have weekend getaways, and enjoy the company of our loves. But February can also be the perfect time to show love for yourself. Last year was stressful on many levels. We were lucky enough to be able to…

Portland Fires: A Writer’s Block of Immense Proportions

Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com It has been nearly impossible to concentrate on writing, or much of anything else, these past few days. Instead my days have become a routine of constantly checking Covid-19 statistics for three states, and checking for evacuation orders for the West Coast. You see, I have a loved one who lives in…

Hurricanes and Tornados? Thanks,2020!

In 2020, don't say "It could be worse." Apparently, it's listening. Monday night the Weather Channel notified us of hurricane warnings. Rule obeyers that we are, we did all the things we were suppose to do. We brought in yard tools and decor that would likely be broken in the wind and battened down that…

Seven Weeks

I have not left my house in 7 weeks.  Every day my inbox is filled with creative ways to occupy my time, otherwise known as how to keep my sanity.             I have a confession.  I am not going stir crazy or suffering from cabin fever and I  feel a little guilty about that.  It is quite the opposite.
