I’m back from my blogging break. I mentioned in my last post I was going to take some time off for about “a week or so,” and one week turned into three. It was a conscious choice, but it wasn’t easy to give myself permission to take a break. Do you ever feel that way? You’re [...]

kindred spirits
When I was four months pregnant with baby Blake (who at almost 10 months and 24 lbs is probably ready for a new nickname) I attended a book writing workshop in California. I blogged about the experience: The opportunity to fly cross-country to attend the workshop fell into my lap. It stood there staring at [...]

it’s my blogiversary
Two years ago I started a blog. And as I wrote each post, I felt myself come alive. At first, I ignored this feeling and criticized myself for spending time on something that wasn’t making money or moving my professional life forward. I told myself I was procrastinating… using the blog to distract myself from [...]

clearly I’ve hit a nerve
For as long as I’ve been blogging (coming up on two years) I have never written something that has generated 50+ comments. That is, until recently, when one of the essays I wrote for Hybrid Mom was posted on the front page of the parenting section of Shine.

writing to heal
I have this habit of writing things and forgetting I wrote them. This morning, I picked up the journal that sits at my bedside table and started flipping through the pages. My first reaction was, I wrote that? When did I write that? I’m always impressed by my stream-of-consciousness writing… it’s full of insight. The [...]

on faith: in writing and in life
I know when I start leaving car doors open, I’m experiencing extreme overload. Several times, over the past several weeks, my neighbors have discovered the same scene:

back to basics
I haven’t forgotten I owe you an update on MyMeWriMo. I’m not attempting to tease you. There will be no grand reveal: Surprise! I wrote a whole book in one month, and I’m searching for an agent now! Not. But I did make progress and have some interesting revelations to share. I’ll get to that later this [...]

just chill
If you’re like me, you’re having a small panic attack that the end of the year is pretty much here. Rather than doing the healthy thing– put all my big ideas and projects on hold until January 1– I think I can cram a bunch of stuff in at the last minute. Drama! And there’s [...]

secret side revealed
Today, I’m honored to be featured over at The Sassy Steel Magnolia. My assignment: talk about a time when one of my secret sides revealed itself… how it happened and how I came to terms with it. Last week, I declared my commitment to writing my story. Today, I take you on the road, to the time [...]
