I've been writing and posting on Instagram about how much I love morning pages for a while now. I've gotten several message from people saying that they'd love to journal or do morning pages, but can never think of anything to say! And believe me, I've been there. While I've been preaching that it's important... Continue Reading →
Three Card Draw – July 29, 2017
I don't think I've ever written about my tarot habit before. I love tarot cards - not because I think they help me predict the future or because I think I'm psychic, but they help me tap into what I'm really thinking and hoping for. I'll spend some time writing about my tarot philosophy soon,... Continue Reading →

Another Writer to Devour – Sherman Alexie
Errr.., you know what I mean. Don't devour the writer, only his work. On my way to work this morning, I heard Sherman Alexie being interviewed about his new book.

Hello From the Other Side
Hi Friends! It's been a while since I've written - eek! If you've been following me for a while, you might have noticed that I go through phases. At times I'm reading like a fiend - other times? Not so much. When I'm not reading, I'm usually doing something like knitting or quilting -- which... Continue Reading →
