    New parent, must write: Author toolbox post

    This parenting thing is relentless and I am only 20 weeks in. Duh, right? Well, somehow I am finding time to write. It’s different now. My resolve is bound to the conviction that if I quit doing something I love I will disappoint my son. He will see the sorrow in the newly formed lines around my tired eyes. Even at 20 weeks he will sense the emptiness I would feel if I didn’t make time to write (instead of do the dishes or another load of laundry). He would know because the j

    Another revision and another day

    #RevPit Bio Hop post

    Okay, so I haven’t blogged in awhile, but today that changes! At least for this post, I’m doing for #RevPit Blog Hop. I love these events because I always meet at least one awesome writer virtually and keep in touch. I have always considered myself a generalist. I want to know a little bit about as much as I can, I would say everything, but that’s impossible, so—my favorite subjects: Dogs Animals Botany Collections & Collectors (matchbooks, spoons, thimbles, etc.) The oce
