Laughing quietly
as you follow the thing
destroying all in its way.
& then it turns
and sees you.

The message a disappointingly large segment of Americans need to absorb…but won’t before it’s too late.

I've always loved the fact that the word 'sneeze' is the result of a historical accident. The original form, in the Middle Ages, was 'fnese', but someone mistook the 'f' for the long medieval 's' and wrote down 'sn-' instead.

Fneezing sounds much more like a proper, nasal sneeze.

Outing myself as someone who has not seen #theWizardofOz or the #Wicked production, but that film was the best I’ve seen in a long time. I understand the power it has in touching so many people. It’s truly a remarkable example of how fiction can express and connect like nothing else.

Lunch break = cafe and #writing and planning time. I love being amongst the energy of others and the greenery always breathes life back into me

When a writer says they've outlined their story, what they really mean is they've envisioned 3-4 cool scenes they now need to somehow tie together into a plot

An hour of #writing time before work. Today I’m focusing on the novel in final edits. I’ve got another in first draft, so many WIPs, a children’s book, poetry collection, and online content for website launch. Numerous projects is fun and flirty β˜ΊοΈπŸ’β€β™€οΈ

Buying a book and actually reading it are two very different hobbies.
