Chapter Seven – Anticipation
Yes! Happy Monday! Chapter seven may be found here. I didn't blog over the weekend. Nothing of note happened anyway and I spent my Saturday cleaning, doing laundry and other mundane chores I'd put off until I decided even I couldn't postpone it any longer. I made a pot of beef vegetable soup which was … Continue reading Chapter Seven – Anticipation
Chapter Six – Portals | Time Passages
HAPPY FRIDAY! Chapter six of Broken Shutters can be found here. I'm sorry this is a little late. Keep in mind I still work full time and am always doing a balancing act out here in reality land.

Chapter Five – Two Souls
Happy Wednesday! Chapter five of Broken Shutters is here. Can you believe we're already at just over 14,000 words? I do have a confession to make...not only is this a story I was longing to write, it is also a test of balance. You see, life is made of two main categories: ORDER and CHAOS. … Continue reading Chapter Five – Two Souls
Chapter Four | Lady Buttercup

I hope you are enjoying Lady Ludwig's story and that you stick with us until the end. Oh, "us" is me and … Continue reading Chapter Four | Lady Buttercup
Full Moon Energy | Can You Feel That?!
The first full moon of 2020 was today...or rather yesterday and oh boy was it glorious. There was also a lunar eclipse but unfortunately it wasn't visible from where I am on the east coast. No biggie because even if you couldn't see it you could certainly feel it if you're in tune with that … Continue reading Full Moon Energy | Can You Feel That?!

Bright Ideas | Sometimes They Work Out
Tonight, I got a bright idea. At least I think it's a bright idea. I mean, just the fact that we get bright ideas is fantastic, right? I LOVE those light bulb moments when my brain starts firing and I begin the process of putting all the pieces together and suddenly realize...this might actually work! … Continue reading Bright Ideas | Sometimes They Work Out
A Passion for #Proofreading | A New Gig?
I have to be honest, I really don't know the mechanics of proofreading as a profession or if there's a system out there for it. I mean I'm sure there is but I haven't explored it...yet. Most likely there are expensive courses and / or classes you can take to become certified and get some … Continue reading A Passion for #Proofreading | A New Gig?
"Are you going to put me in one of your books?"
"If you wou’d not be forgottenAs soon as you are dead and rotten,Either write things worth reading,or do things worth the writing." The quote above is credited by many sources to Benjamin Franklin. Did he say it? Most likely, or he may have derived his own interpretation of it from someone else who came before … Continue reading "Are you going to put me in one of your books?"
