I have lofty goals. I always have, even when I’ve been unmotivated and lazy. Those times don’t really help me get anywhere, but the goals are still there, resting in the back of my mind. As you’re probably aware by now, I am in the midst of writing a 9 book series; a trilogy of […]

Let’s Talk Hair
How important is your hair? I’ve never liked mine. It’s unmanageable, does whatever it wants, is wavy/curly, thin but frizzy, and a weird golden/reddish color that changes whenever it wants to. I seriously used to wish I had straight, blonde hair like many of my peers. I was never allowed to dye it, either. Yet, […]
The Beginning of my Character Development
Once upon a time I didn’t realize my mind worked differently from everyone else’s. It was my only experience and I just didn’t know that none of us experiences anything the same. Sadly, I didn’t fully realize this until well into adulthood. (It has made relationships so much easier, though!) As far back as I […]
Treasuring The Time
I’ve been reflecting on the time I get to spend with some friends and family who don’t live near me, as well as those who are close. I’m incredibly grateful for the life I’ve been building that affords me the opportunity to drop in on those who aren’t close, even if for a short visit. […]

I’m talking about a girl you hardly know. The vast majority of women do not get turned on by that. (Some […]
The First (Lucky: Part 1)
I met Lucky when I was in middle school. While I enjoyed the attention, it also made me uncomfortable. I was still very much a tomboy and would rather show the guys up on the basketball court or race them on my bike. I knew he liked me, but I ignored that. I wasn’t interested […]
Hawaii (part 4)
I have suffered from chronic migraines for as long as I can remember. Unfortunately, they don’t always come when it’s convenient, if there’s ever a convenient time. I ended up with a migraine on the fifth (and last) full day on the island. I was determined to push through and enjoy as much as I […]
I Get It From My Mama
It took me more than a couple of decades to realize that my ability to write, while quite natural to me, is not so easy for everyone else. That it really is one of my gifts. I’m honest enough with myself at this point to realize that I’m not the best writer in the world, […]
