Nita, a friend online and off, tagged me with a meme she had been given. The aim is to list five of your strengths as a writer/artist. You must not mention any weaknesses. Once you have complete...
Final Weekly Wrap-Up

Weekly Wrap-Up
Today marks one week in Eureka Springs. OK, so more like 4:30 this afternoon will, but it’s close enough to count. Highlights of this week: Poetluck - gathering of writers and local people to h...
Taking a Breather
After basically overwhelming myself yesterday, I decided it would be more beneficial/productive for me to take it easy and do things in a more laid-back manner. There’s nothing that says I hav...
