Away And Back Again (Ish)

It’s been a hot minute, hasn’t it? How it Started I wrote this blog regularly (sometimes even, gasp, every day) since March 28, 2007. (You can read the very first post here.) I loved this blog.

When is Watching Trash TV is Good for Your Writing?

I'm leading a home study group on a book called Birthing a Greater Reality (which is an amazing book on the evolution of consciousness, by the way) and our first meeting was Tuesday night.
