Just the other day I was in a meeting with my Volunteer Director who was telling me about how the Executive Secretary for the clinic called her in a huff (my words not hers because the Volunteer Director is a very gracious woman). Apparently one of the volunteers sent a woman up to the third… Read More Becoming Naive Again
This past weekend we were supposed to go to the Oyster Festival in our state and camp with some friends who were also scheduled to play music for the festival. We offered to bring some food for the long weekend and because our lives are so busy right now, my wife decided it would… Read More A Mature Woman’s Romantic Picnic Lunch
I was asked if I was going to do a blog on my experience at the Gay Romance Northwest Meet up on Saturday and I had to ponder what I might want to say about the event. Since I am relatively new to the lesbian fiction world as an author, I am still learning all… Read More GRNW and The Three Rs
I’ve often wondered at what point does someone evolve from softhearted animal lover to crazy cat lady? Is there a specific number of cats that result in a flip of the switch? Three cats is a normal lesbian, four to five and you are softhearted, six means you are skirting the edge, and then bam… Read More Crazy Cat Lady…Oh wait that’s me
Experiences, even bad ones, are fodder for my blogs. Here’s what happened last weekend… I live in a small community in the middle of the State during the week and my wife lives in an even smaller community on the other side of the mountains. Unfortunately, our jobs make it inconvenient to live in the… Read More Olde Dogg Seafood
Well shut the front door – I am my father’s daughter. The acorn did not fall far from the tree. When my wife says this to me, I am a little offended, but I’ve come to realize that I do share a number of his traits, both good and bad. When did this epiphany come… Read More My Father’s Daughter
Self awareness is a bitch…. I just discovered something about myself as I was giving my beta editor fits. I color outside the lines-especially when I write in first person. So here’s the deal…I never took a writing course, never went to the GCLS writing academy, didn’t major in English, but that didn’t stop me… Read More Coloring Outside the Lines
I find it fascinating how a writer can describe a character who has childlike qualities with positive connotations such as having childlike wonder, innocence, openness to the world, creativity, curiosity, etc. You all get the idea. Yet that same character might also be described as childish, immature, or infantile – all very unflattering attributes. This got… Read More Childlike or Childish
Currently I sit on a health insurance trust board and we meet three to four times a year. Prior to every meeting, our group gets together to enjoy fine wine (lots and lots of fine wine), good conversation and great food. This past weekend my wife and I hosted the traditional drink and be merry… Read More I Just Make That Sh@% Up
I just read RG Emanuelle’s blog and it rang so true. Finding things to blog about is hard sometimes. I chose the title Everyday Occurrences because that’s what I usually blog about those everyday funny bone moments when I say something silly (it’s usually me) and my wife starts laughing out loud. Here’s what happened a few… Read More Where Did I Put The Soap?
