Looking for a few good (fiction) books
I enjoy reading books I always have. My daughter seems to share my passion and at five years old she is now reading books to me. How cool is that? I started reading books to her when she was still inside my tummy, occasionally. I read to her at a certain time each evening. The [...]

Writing on Vacation
It’s hard to believe that I’ve been on vacation for almost a week. The time has flown by quickly. Although my days didn’t revolve around writing the change in pass inspired me to write. I don’t have to write daily. I followed up with my clients and let them know I would be on vacation [...]

Freelance Writing: What is your backup plan?
Always cover your bases that is something my father has always told me and I did my best to follow that rule. Even before I became a business owner I’ve always prepared myself for work case scenarios. I think that is what set me apart from many. I always had a backup plan.
It’s even more [...]
Freelance Writing: Becoming a commentary writer
If you’ve noticed I’ve been writing about my new freelance writing job a lot recently. I guess it’s obvious that I’m really enjoying it.

Freelance writing; Trying to get my groove back
Just as Stella got her groove back at times, I need to go out and reclaim my writing groove. Yesterday I was trying to think of the best way to start writing an article; nothing came to me. Have you ever been there? Instead of wasting my time worrying about that, I wrote the middle [...]
