My Pink Beach Chair

I have been diligently working at finishing my third book, which has been years in the making, while I recently began a fourth! This is exciting as I appreciate the continued writing in this body of work I adore so much. However, it may be why my blogging has dropped away and I miss it. […]

Sharing the Path: Perimenopause and Writing

In my new endeavor to highlight the individual behind the words (here on this blog), I will not shy away from discussing all aspects of my life that impact the writer/author that I have become.

Decisions, Food and Writing

I would love to share with you how I personally use the work I write about, as I think it would be a direct link to offering something about my writing process and how I navigate through my day/life in general. For those of you who have read some of my work, whether it be […]

Creative Writing

Today I had the idea that I should change the way I post on my blog. Although I am a mindfulness writer of a specific practice that I have developed, I am also a writer. This is new for me as I’ve only been writing for about 12 years, and only 5 years since self-publishing […]
