I was talking to a friend recently about blogging. We’ve both been doing it for years now and we talked about how it used to be. There used to be more genuine connection, authenticity passion and fun. We used to share freely and enjoy the connection with other people who related to our spot in […] Read more…

Finding your motivation – Easily

Reach goals by making room with Epson
I’ve been diving into Spring cleaning (with a bigger purpose) around here. It used to be so much easier! When I was single, it was a quick job. Now that there’s two kids and a husband in the mix, Spring Cleaning is more like a complete overhaul. The biggest job is getting old toys and […] Read more…
Denial, Decisions + The Imposter
There’s one thing I’ve always run away from. It took me until a few years ago to just out right claim it and to step out of denial. I don’t know why it took me so long to fess up to being a writer. It’s what I’ve always done. As a little girl, I’d sit […] Read more…

Where did you bury that dream?
Recently, I got a call from a publisher interested in showcasing my book of poetry in an international book fair in London. To say I was shocked is putting it lightly. I published the book in 2012. I don’t even promote it anymore. I was surprised that they’d found it AND had an interest in […] Read more…
Who Do You Love?
Valentine’s Day is around the corner. It’s one of those days that gets people all riled up. There’s the group who talk about it being a over hyped made up holiday. Then there’s those who are absolutely loving the day and the chance to spoil people they love. I fall in the middle. I didn’t […] Read more…
