It’s been one of those weeks where everything is happening last-minute. I feel like I can’t stay on top of my own schedule. I have been furiously working through my manuscript and part of the process has been fleshing out my Bibliography and notes section. FAVORITE part of any project. (Not even.) Who knew I […]
Does anyone else find anxious thoughts to be a default mode when it comes to the unknown future? Anyone else feeling nervous about a coming transition? Had you asked me a month ago to identify my nerves on a scale of 1-10 (1 being totally calm, “ain’t no thing” and 10 being “I can’t fall […]

Did the title make you shudder? The Thursday Tip I’m sharing this morning came out of a real life experience from this week. I had something on the calendar.

A whole gaggle of lovely and wonderful people took time […]
Speak when you are angry and you will make the best speech you will ever regret. -Ambrose Bierce There’s much when it comes to how we used social media. I couldn’t help but think about this retro video post as I was writing this week. When we consider how much to share on-line I want us […]
I mentioned yesterday my concern about the LIKE ME aspect of social media. I’ve been thinking about for a while but it has really come to a point as I consider what it will be like to the mother of a young woman in just a few years. After I speak at schools and conferences […]

I think a lot of us are pretty good at acting and pretending. We smile through pain and maintain the image that we want the world to see.
