Writing. Not sure how I came upon it but have been at it now for over 12 years. I am realizing lately that once an artist, always an artist. I began as a dancer from a young age, a technical dancer really, as it always consisted of taking dance class (very seriously) and performing in […]

Masking
What a concept. Who would have imagined we would be in a situation where we would be covering our faces? I remember when the pandemic first began and there were photos of teens in China wearing masks. It seemed foreign to me. Now it seems normal. I make my own masks out of old sweatpants. […]
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: Sun-Guilt and Summer Fun in Maine
I love summer in Maine. I take it for granted this is where I live, forgetting it is a place of vacation get-away for many. I don’t even travel far from home to suddenly be at a beautiful beach. Of course, the water is much colder than many would tolerate, but I don’t mind. I […]
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.

Sharing the Path: Guilt, Therapy and Self-Inquiry
As I have now been a self-published author for 6 years, have written two books and am 3 ½ years into my third, I would like to take this blog in a new direction. Thus far I have written in the style of the subject matters in my books. Being that there are many aspects […]
Creative Writing
Hi all, I am sharing a new section I have added called “Creative Writing Entries.” These will not show up as a Blog post but instead will remain in their own section you can find under the general Menu. I will, however, alert you to when there is a new entry written, as I am […]
New Beginnings
Hi all, My blogging has slowed down a bit lately, and I imagine it is because I have been developing a Mindful Reality podcast, which will hopefully launch shortly! It consists of writing scripts, editing the scripts, recording, editing the recordings, etc. I am very excited about the endeavor as it is a wonderful way […]
Sand Castles and Streams
In the spirit of writing something down, I will free associate today. Since early March, I have been generating a clear message on the blog almost each day, wondering how long that would last. It was a surprise when it came on, as I had previously only been posting something a few times a month. […]
