No…I’m not going to list my 2026 New Year’s Resolutions because, frankly, I never do. Why? My philosophy of resolutions or changes that need to be made in life should never be limited to one arbitrary day of the year. … Read More New Year’s Resolutions
For many years now, I have always wished people Happy Holidays rather than Merry Christmas. Why? The simple answer is that it is more inclusive. … Read More War on Happy Holidays
I think we should rename the day to Super Sale Friday, Screaming Deals Friday, or… how about Shop Until You Drop Friday? Then there is…The Day After Thanksgiving. Perhaps that one is too on the nose and not clever enough. … Read More Black Friday
So…I know I’ve written about the history of Valentine’s Day before, so I went on a duckduckgo search (my new way to search for obscure information due to Google’s recent asshattery) and found an article about 25 fun facts on this day of love. As a romance writer, I’ve got to throw away any cynical… Read More Happy Valentines Day!
One word…interoception. What? Yup…that’s what I said…because how many of you know what the heck interoception means. Well…have no fear because I’m going to tell you all about it! I briefly entertained the idea of the title of this blog being, interoception. But then I figured it wasn’t nearly as sexy a title as the… Read More The Secret to Better Orgasms…

In fact, in lesbian romance there are a fair number of individuals that will not read a book if a main character, or sometimes, any character, cheats on their lover/girlfriend/wife. Interestingly enough, I read an article recently that talked about the… Read More Infidelity, Oh My!
As I was sitting on the beach enjoying the sunshine, I read this article that definitely caught my interest. I’d never heard the term before and tried to remember if I’d ever read a book where this particular concept came into play. So…anyway…what is Cushioning for those of you who also have never heard this… Read More Cushioning
Since I’ve done blogs on both Thanksgiving and Black Friday over the years, I thought I would change things up. This past week as I was scrolling through the news, I came across this really interesting article (yup, although I vowed not to torment myself after the election, that vow quickly dissipated). Apparently, I am… Read More Is This Normal…
Here’s the thing…I’m embarrassed to admit that I don’t really know much about an Advent Calendar other than it happens around Christmas. Since my father was a committed Atheist married to a good Catholic girl, my mother’s influence on our upbringing related to spirituality was hidden and limited. As an adult, I chose to become confirmed, mostly because I had a crush on a Catholic girl and probably wanted to impress her. But that is a whole other story.… Read More Advent Calendar
Total transparency…this blog is mostly a rerun because I’m still in a food coma from yesterday and simply could not get my brain moving…but it’s a goodie! Today is Black Friday, and personally, I think that is a gruesome name for the day. Years ago, I talked with my nephew’s wife at our annual traditional… Read More Black Friday
