1. Red Heart, Ice Mountain is done. What a monster. I finished at 145k words (we're gonna talk about the egregious length in a second) and totally rushed that ending but I JUST WANTED TO GET IT DONE. I've been working on this straight for almost four months. And I really wanted to start working … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 47

1. If I see Peter Pan misquoted as saying "to live will be an awfully big adventure" one more time I will actually go banana balls. The quote is incorrect and entirely loses the spirit of the moment and the spirit of Peter Pan himself. The correct version is, "To die will be an awfully … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 46

Dead Man's Curve. The legend. The myth. The moniker. The infamous curve on interstate 90 in Cleveland, OH. While we're all speeding through downtown at 65mph (of course there are those with death wishes hurtling pass at 75mph), suddenly: yellow signs! Lights! 35 mph!

I walk like a trapped wolf on a path of cement. I hung the sidewalks like I'm sniffing for blood. But I'm looking for escape. Or I'm looking for the sun. I'm looking for that place east of it and west of the moon. I look for it in books like I look for it … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 43

Did that body-switch in Wonder Woman 1984 make sense? No. Did I ignore it just because I was happy to see Chris Pine back as Steve Trevor? Yes. 2. On the subject of movies, can we talk about that 5-hour long factory scene in Attack of the Clones? Did anyone else get either hard the … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 42

A familiar brightness that tells of long cold nights and shorter and colder days. Wet snow has covered everything. Orange lampposts and porch lights reflect back in the snow, … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol 40

Another NaNoWriMo won and done and in the bag *brushes off hands*. I finished at 1 am on Thanksgiving, fueled by brownie cheesecake. If lucky, I'm halfway through the novel and intend to continue writing it through December (I had this grand plan at the beginning of NaNo that I would finish it by the … Continue reading Saturday Morning Post, Vol. 39

*Sits down to write blog. Writes a blog. Hates that blog. Decides to write a new blog. Wants to write something but everything circles back to Covid and no one including herself wants to read any more about that.
