If the idea, the thought comes to you, it just might be your’s to do. Do you have the courage to see it through? Before I wrote my fiction book, Didn’t See that Coming, I had no thought of ever writing a book. But one day while sitting in my apartment in New York City, an entire first chapter came to me and I got lost in the writing. At first, I only had one character and I didn’t know where she was going, and then another character appeared and another and so on and so on, u

A couple of friends listened to me as I went on about my woes. Most folks know me as a cheerleader for life because I am a teacher, so they are not comfortable when I have a pity party, and that’s okay. I do believe happenings in life serve a purpose for change. That’s what I choose to believe. Sometimes it feels like I can’t control my pity parties. A negative thought comes and then another, another, and the next thing I know I have a clump of negativity hanging out in my mi

It is Day 3 of blogging and I find myself wondering about what I will write about each day. But I think for me, it is best just to show up and see what my muse has to say, to allow the flow to occur. I do not want to expect anything out of blogging, just the act of doing, being, and allowing will be a gift all in itself. It has only been 3 days, but each morning when I arrive with my favorite Starbuck’s French Roast cup of coffee and begin, I am delighted and filled with lots

Staring Monday, June 2nd I am taking on the blog challenge of writing everyday. It feels good because I have no great intention behind it and no expectations. Just for fun and joy. I have been writing since I was a little girl but I have never considered myself a writer. I am a songwriter but for some reason I consider that different than being a writer. But guess what, its all the same. I accidentally wrote a book and self-published it. It came on like a tornado out of the b

Once again I’ve decided it would be fun to write a blog everyday and babble on about whatever. Today, I think about creativity for me and I love the process of writing a song or writing in my book. When I am in the flow the whole world disappears. I am blissed out. But everyday there is this struggle to even get myself to the paper. It is a battle in the mind. I think it is wrought with fears of “it won’t be good enough”, a thought pattern from my childhood. I can tend toward

It is 3:06 in the morning. I have been down with the flu and now bronchitis. I have been staying up very late every nite for the last week from feeling sick and tonite is no different. Of course, I am watching continual coverage of “Breaking News”. I think it’s called “Breaking News” because most of the time it “breaks” our heart. Not always, but mostly. I hope you will take the time to read the poems/songs that came through me. When I am creating, it is my intent to be in co

I have not blogged in a couple of weeks. I have been in a space of noting that the “flow” can look very different. I thought it was going to look one way and over the last few weeks I hit a stumbling block, purely made of my own doing. I kept trying to push in a certain direction because that is what I “thought” I was supposed to do, but my heart was not in it and I kept hitting up against a bunch of walls. In the last few days I finally decided to give in to what might be pr
