Oh, The Joy of Trusting the Process!

Oh, the joy of trusting the process! Usually, when I face something that’s new, difficult or downright scary, my first instinct is to quit. Admit that whatever I signed up for is not for me. I wasn’t cut out for this thing and I simply cannot do it. When this happens, I sit and sulk. […]

There’s Something About Setting a Goal

There’s something about setting a goal. It feels like running through a shiny red ribbon at the end of a race, while I sport the blood sweat and tears that come with the process. I set my intention on something and then I complete it. But not always. Not every goal I make are completed […]

I Love The Process!

When it comes to writing, I love the process. Every minute of it, even though from start to finish, the process of writing can be intimidating, and overwhelming, but I think it’s ultimate ride, and I am so lucky to be able to be in the driver’s seat. And it begins like this. An idea […]

The Wonderful World of Writer’s Block

Welcome to the wonderful world of writer’s block. Do you ever find yourself staring at a blank screen? Your hands hovering just above the keyboard, stuck in mid-air?

Walking During Winter

Walking during winter? Do I really need to? Can’t I just hop on my Peloton and call it a day? As I look outside my window and see nothing but white, these questions flood my mind, as I huddle my shoulders together as if I am stepping into a tub of ice. What’s the point? […]

Are Blurbs Necessary?

When it comes to publishing a book, are blurbs necessary? First of all, what’s a blurb? A blurb is a complementary perspective about a book. Usually they are a sentence or two. Maybe a small paragraph. Most times they are published somewhere on the cover, or on the first few pages of the book. It’s […]

My Sensational Surrender

My sensational surrender came out of left field – which is to be expected, because who plans life’s hiccups anyway? What surfaced was just what I needed. I just didn’t know it, yet. It started with a tickly throat – then came the fatigue and the aches and pains. I dashed to the stash of […]
