Since I’ve been asked to talk with a GCLS academy class, I wanted to do my research, so I created a short poll to ask readers what is the most effective social media presence. To be honest, I’m a little nervous about talking to the class because although I have a presence, I’m not entirely… Read More Polls and More…
Let’s talk about orgasms again…well sort of! As typical of my behavior, I was scanning the news and came across an article about the differences between men and women, related to the differences in their rates of orgasms during sex (70-85% for men and 46-58% for women). And the research surprisingly held consistent across all… Read More What if…
Yesterday, I reached a milestone. I am finally eligible for Medicare and every senior discount offered. Sure, I was eligible for many senior discounts before, but not all of them. That got me thinking: When did senior discounts occur? Which ones are tied to eligibility in AARP versus when you reach other milestone ages like… Read More Senior Discounts
Everyone who reads my blog knows that I love to do research. One of my favorite sites is Snopes because they will chase down any rumor, regardless of whether it originates from the left or right. Recently I shared a fact-based article to counteract the insane rumors being spread around about Kamala Harris. Because this… Read More Facts Do Matter
The one subgenre I’ve yet to master is romantic comedy. Although some readers have reported on my sense of humor in books, even noting several laugh-out-loud moments, I believe that romantic comedies are the hardest to pull off. I can think of only a handful of sapphic authors who execute this subgenre with perfection. Recently,… Read More Funny Words
This past week, on my way to Seattle, I listened to NPR as is my normal thing to do, and was delighted to hear that I’m not the only one actively avoiding listening to or reading the depressing news. Normally, I incessantly scroll through the news for any positive sign that things won’t go terribly… Read More The Benefits of Reading Fiction
Lately, I’ve been shutting myself off from the depressing news cycle. I was happy to learn that my sisters across the pond in the UK have seen their world take a dramatic turn. Thank goodness for that. I’m hoping that will rub off on the US because even the news outlets that I’ve relied on,… Read More Funny Cat Videos
No, I’m not touching the disastrous debate last night with a hundred-foot pole for this week’s topic. Instead, I’d like to talk about the many differences between UK manuscripts and US manuscripts. Recently, I was tasked to proof read a fellow author’s book that resides in the UK. I’m well aware of the spelling differences… Read More An Error or Not?
In my weekly peruse through the news feed on my iPad, I came across a very brief article titled, “People Are Just Realizing What Happens To the Vagina After Sex, And Wow, We Were Taught Nothing.” It was such a letdown to read the article. The information provided was so minimal compared to the long… Read More Vagina Elasticity
In years past, I’ve written about the history of Pride month. I thought it was about time to write about Pride Flags since they’ve evolved so much over the years, and now there is not just one. In fact, when going to the HRC site, I found twenty-five different flags, representing almost everyone I could… Read More Pride Flags
