  • This and That: March 25, 2022

    Coming back to the page, especially one so public, after a long time away, means that there is trepidation when it comes to sharing my thoughts.

  • Complacency: The Writer

    “The moment a writer knows how to achieve a certain effect, the method must be abandoned. Effects repeated become false, mannered. The writer’s style is his doppelgänger, an apparition that the writer must never trust to do his work for him.” ~ Joy Williams

  • Why am I writing here?

    Why am I writing here? That’s a good question and one posed to me by my husband. I have a “writer’s blog” I’ve had on WordPress dot com for close to a decade, and several other blogs I publish as well. Why here? Do you want an honest answer? No one is reading here. When I […]
