Endings Bring New Beginnings
This weekend I am on the last Christmas/New Year’s, help-people-with-their-dogs adventure for at least two weeks. I promise I really did quit dog-sitting as a business. Last year Erica would wonder how much “quitting” was actually had… Speaking of Last Year Erica… I was thinking about a year ago today. I remember how tired and…

Bringing Joy (Or, How To Survive At A Higher Altitude)
This weekend I’m in Woodland Park, Colorado, at a women’s conference. Today is the last day, but now that I’m mostly over the altitude sickness, I decided to get a coffee at the beginning of the day.

Erica has taken full advantage of that feeling of…

For instance, (hot button topic incoming)Harry Potter.…

On The Road Again…
Last night, my best friend Rachel and I drove just over 3 hours to Hutchinson, Kansas, for Smallville Con to sell her books. After one day of sales, connections, and generally goofing off, I have determined that the best part about any type of pop culture convention is the people. Have also decided I really…

Life Update Blog
I haven’t been blogging a lot and there are a lot of reasons for that. Literally none of them are good or even halfway decent. Well… two my friends released books this week and one of them usually has me help her with that… the other one did not ask for that kind of help,…
