It’s that time of year when pumpkins take center stage. I could talk about pumpkin spice, which is an alarmingly controversial topic…people either hate it or love it. I say live and let live, or as Walz would say…’mind your own damn business.’ All joking aside, I am not going to talk about pumpkin spice.… Read More Pumpkin Facts: More Than Just Halloween
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
This past week I was doing my daily scroll through Facebook looking for humorous posts and came across this picture of a wide rectangular toilet built for two. Unfortunately, as happens sometimes, when I went back to try to find the post, I couldn’t find it. I wanted to see if it was real because… Read More Togetherness
I’ve always enjoyed reading Dear Abby. I don’t read the column consistently, but whenever something pops up in my news feed or somewhere else, I take the time to read it (my other guilty pleasure is reading the reddit, “Am I the asshole?” feed). And now I know why. Recently, an old column has been… Read More Dear Abby
I’ve read a lot of Sapphic Novels (probably close to 2,000 by now) and very few of them either feature or even mention Lesbian/Sapphic bars. Not even the ones set back in the eighties when there were a hell of a lot more of them. I remember reading an article a few years back about… Read More Lesbian/Sapphic Bars
The struggle is real. I’m not talking about the action or thriller component in a Romantic Thriller. I’m referring to the right balance of action to romance. I’m not sure if there’s a formula out there to follow. And even if there was, I’m not the kind of writer to adhere to those rules, anyway.… Read More Romantic Thrillers
Some say there is a fine line between love and hate. Others insist the two are diametrically opposed. I often wonder about our capacity for such extremes. Yet I see evidence of this every day. I’m a huge fan of those heart-wrenching videos of cats and kittens who are on the verge of death and… Read More Love and Hate
I’m not really known as a writer who engineers their stories with lesbian couples who have kids. Most of my main characters remain childless with a few exceptions. There’s a good reason for this. People often write what they know, and I’ve never had children of the two-legged variety. All my kids come with fur… Read More Kids and Family
It’s been years since I’ve been to New York. I barely remember anything about the city except how large Central Park is. I’ve always wanted to go to New York and attend a Broadway musical. It’s been on my bucket list for years. Finally, well into my sixties, we have the funds to do fun… Read More New York, New York
