Well, gang, as of right now, it is snowing yet again!! One of those freezing, sleety-type of snows. It's still kind of pretty because I absolutely love snow. However... It is all of 19 degrees Fahrenheit out there today, which is kind of a heatwave, considering that most of this past week, it...

Apparently, it has been out for a while already... Really sorry about this delay in announcing it.
I am talking about the first complete eBook edition of my 1999 "modern...

I now have quite a few writing students that I teach individually. None of them are working on similar projects, either. So each student requires a whole different mindset from me, as well as concentration, creative brainpower. In fact, each student requires that I come to the table with an...

The Vicar of Dibley!!
Okay, well maybe it's not the main reason, but it's right up there with all the important ones!!
On a serious note... the thing I find most miraculous on any given day is if I can manage to sleep through the night without lurching awake with attacks of overwhelming anxiety...

Just FYI, gang: I might be getting a part-time writing job that will keep me indescribably occupied first thing in the morning, 6 days a week. So between that, teaching my writing students two nights a week, doing my other part-time job, and being in school full-time, you might never see me...

As you can probably tell by now, when I was a little girl, I was addicted to the radio. And in those days, TOP 40 radio played all different styles of music. At least in Cleveland they did. You could hear Johnny Cash, The Doors, The Stones, Frank Sinatra, Tammy Wynette, R&B, Steve &...

Apparently, 1968 was one the most fantastic years to be a little girl, listening to the Top 40 radio station. This song was another smash hit, and another super-duper favorite of mine!
(Yes, I'm supposed to be doing homework for English Comp, so let me get back to that. I am writing an essay...

You know, yesterday, I was really deeply missing my best friend on planet Earth, Paul, who died over 13 years ago. Some days, like yesterday, I feel like I can't go on another minute without him to talk to. And yet over 13 years have gone by now, so, obviously. Well, I do indeed go on.
But...

I am referring to the really cruel Justin Bieber hoax that started going off the charts on twitter yesterday. It is not only heartless and basically full of hatred toward adolescent girls, it is just plain sick in so many ways. Here is one UK editorial about it that is really well written...

Since being forewarned is being forearmed, I want to let all the loyal readers of this lofty blog know that I am making some changes to the back end of this blog, which MIGHT make some of my earliest archives disappear. I am not sure yet. If that does happen, it will happen soon. So if there...

The room is a little too dark for you to see just how intensely cute my mornings are around here, but for now, this photo will have to suffice.
This is Huck! And Huck has progressed from playing with my hands to letting me pet him, so mornings around here have gotten very exciting!
Tom and...

Okay,!! 2013 is officially underway. I am not someone who believes in making New Year's Resolutions, gang, only because I am so freakin' GOAL -oriented all year long.
In fact, I am so goal-oriented that I often don't even notice when I've reached a goal because I'm too busy looking at the next...

So, are you ready for 2013? Lord knows, I am. 2012 had some incredibly beautiful moments -- some things I wouldn't trade for anything in the world; memories that will stay in my heart forever. But overall, I have to say, it was one of the hardest fucking year's I've had in my whole life!!
