I haven’t made any secret this past week regarding my complete avoidance of writing the sex scene…which I was going to write on Monday. Instead, I wrote several teaser scenes because, yes, I’m procrastinating. I’ve heard from other writers who have a hard time writing explicit sex scenes and that made me feel only slightly… Read More That Elusive Sex Scene

I’ve done it again…gone off into a quirky new area of fiction…pushing those boundaries. Yeah, I know…no big surprise. You almost expect that of me now. This time I might cause a bit of squeamishness as I travel completely off the rails. My newest word that I posted on Facebook is a Semash. I know… Read More Squeamish About the Semash

I’m not going to lie. This past year was a total suckorama for me, and most definitely not the good kind of sucking.  I’ve had a few bouts of situational depression in my life and this past year, one reared its ugly head. Normally those times center around a broken heart, but this year I… Read More Highlights and Lowlights of 2017

Can I be honest with y’all? I don’t particularly look forward to Christmas. It’s not that I don’t participate in some of the festivities around me at this time of year. I do. I wear the Ugly Sweater on the designated day expected of me. I go around with the Senior Leadership Team and personally… Read More A Lesbian Scrooge

We puffed out our ample bosoms (I like to think that no matter what the cup size or no cup size at all, every woman possesses ample… Read More Reframing Expectations

At first, I thought the Elf on the Shelf was just another example of how sexist our society is because I’d only ever seen male elves. Regardless, I’m going to voice my concerns over this creepy little doll regardless of the fact they have added a female version. They certainly don’t have any elves of color… Read More Elf on the Shelf

Normally this never happens to me….today I have not one, but two topics I want to talk about. I’ve invented another word for this…Blogblend. I’m adding that to the list of Annette Mori words and now I have: Romash, Inebetweenquel, Instafacetweet and Blogblend. A Blogbled is a blending of two or more completely different topics… Read More Blogblend

Today is Black Friday and personally, I think that is a gruesome name for the day. I was talking to my nephew’s wife yesterday at our annual traditional Thanksgiving dinner where we go out to eat instead of the muss and fuss of cooking. She was a wealth of information on why the day was… Read More Black Friday

Right about now we start thinking about that wonderful holiday, Thanksgiving and what we are thankful for. Because I’m old, I had to look back at previous blogs so I wouldn’t follow in my father’s footsteps and repeat or rehash stories I’d written about before. For many people, Thanksgiving is their favorite holiday or a… Read More Thank You…Thank You Very Much
