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. As an icebreaker, I had everyone talk a little about themselves and then say something that was surprising or unexpected about […]

Writing in the Rain: Monday Morning Round-up

It is raining this morning. I know, I know, I live in Oregon, its to be expected. And, truthfully, I don't mind. I love going out for a walk in the rain and coming back inside where its cozy, warm, and dry, to curl up with my writing or my reading. And this morning my […]

Work Details to Help With Your Writing

Morning Routine

What’s Right For You is Right For the World

On Monday, this was my morning: I got out of bed feeling cranky and negative. Got my coffee and went to my office, as usual. The computer beckoned, so I went right to it and started in on email. Wasn't time for anything else. I didn't feel like walking. So I didn't. The rest of […]

This Is It

I had an epiphany this weekend. I just love me an epiphany, especially when it makes me feel happy and in love with the world again. Not that I had fallen out of love with it. Well, maybe a little. Given a few little ups and downs and my anger at the idiots people who […]

The Wonder of a Writing Retreat

Writing retreats and workshops have been much on my mind lately, for several reasons: 1. I've been running around like a nut job, working on classes, coaching, traveling and other fun things. 2. Among the "other fun things" noted in #1, I've been planning my first week-long retreat/workshop with my biz partner, Debbie Guyol. (Note […]

It’s In Deciding

What's one of the most powerful words in the English language? Decide. As in, deciding to do something. With all your heart and soul. And then following through and doing it. No matter what. There's magic in that there action. Deciding and doing it. I bet you've experienced this. I know I have. When I've […]
