What Do You Fear?
“Do you want to go on an adventure with me?” my brother asked recently. I didn’t even hesitate. “No.” That might surprise anyone who reads my books. My heroines are all brave and bold and unflinching (mostly) in the face of great dangers. I flinch a LOT. My imagination is big enough to make a…

Perilous P’s April Adventure In Pictures
So yeah, April was my Big Adventure Month. As I was mulling how to write about it, I popped over to the hub’s Flickr page and realized he did it with photos and I probably should, too. Once both hubs and I managed to arrive in Cody, we climbed in our car and started driving…

Another Blast from My Blog’s Past
So, it’s April, no fooling, and, if you aren’t already in spring, you know it’s coming. And that means we’ll start stripping back the layers of winter and exposing that pale, pale skin. I don’t suntan or anything, but it’s still a shock. So that got me thinking back to one of my most viewed…

A Season to Learn
When I was young, there was a very popular song called “Turn, Turn, Turn,” that become a hit in 1965. It was taken from the scripture: “To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under heaven.” For some reason, that song came back to me today when I was trying to…

26 Places I Can’t Take the Hubs #badpuns
There are places I can’t take the hubs. It’s not because he misbehaves, but he LOVES Loves loves bad puns. The badder the better. I’d forgotten he has a particular fondness for funny place names until our recent road trip. And it didn’t surface until we hit Kansas. Wakeeney, Kansas (did you know there is…

Know What You’re Asking For
This blog post was going to be about a very different topic. While my journey from one topic to another is kind of embarrassing, I’m glad to not be writing the whine-one-one post I’d originally planned. I’m weary of dwelling in that not-happy place. Besides, you can catch the highlights on Facebook as it unfolded.…

When “Good” Body Shapers go “Bad”
I have to say, it’s not easy being a muffin-top grandma in a “figure improving technology” world. Every year, my pants get more comfortable (there is a strong trend toward knit pants in my closet) and gravity ups its grip on pretty much everything. I’d been thinking of blogging about the slide toward comfort over…

Dewlaps, Wattles and Jowls, Oh My!
The subject of jowls came up during a panel on blogging at ApolloCon. Okay, I might have brought it up when I was asked if I planned any sort of YouTube broadcasting, as part of my blogging. Um, no, I do not put these jowls on camera anymore than I can help. They are camera…

Dead Feels a Lot like Not Dead
So I found out on Twitter that I died in 1999. I really thought I’d know this without Twitter or Goodreads, but apparently not. I went over to Goodreads and there it was: I really think someone should have told me. I mean, I’ve always known I’m not normal, but I didn’t know I was paranormal.…
