Ancient Pathways Class for my daughter… yeah right. 😉

So, yeah, I take Lily to this Ancient Pathways class because she loves it. Yeah, that's what I claim, but the reality of it is I love the class. She's an excuse to go to the classes. LOL I'm constantly learning new things when I go. It could safely be said that I am...

EPICon 2013

This is the first full day and the second day of EPICon. So many wonderful "old" friends here: Debi Sullivan, Betty Kasischke, Deb Dixon, Kate Richards, Desiree Holt, Ellen Spain, Cassiel Knight, Marilyn Meredith, Martha Eskuchen, and many more. And some new friends:...

Out on the trail

Lily, my daughter, and I went hiking in Temescal Canyon last week. We were taking a nature class. (For those of you who don't know, I homeschool my daughter.) This particular class, we learned about edible and poisonous plants, as well as a plant that's the only known...

What should an author know?

Writing is a craft. Like any craft, it's important to know how to use the tools. What do I mean by tools? Well, what do you need to know or use in order to write? Obviously, you need to have a good vocabulary. Repeating the same words over and over becomes, well,...
