WordFrolic!
This morning I woke up still thinking about the project I was writing about in the wee hours. Surely that meant it was time to take action, and it turns out that action meant making it way more complicated than … Continue reading
Where ideas can hang out! And do whatever!
For months now, I have been thinking that it would be way cool to have a writerly version of Illustration Friday. No competition, just a forum for quick little blurbs, any form, based on a single word – something to … Continue reading

Two Things about Pictures
1. Tonight my grandmother was looking at pictures from our trip to Asheville. “Who’s that little boy in the picture?” she asked. I was confused, until I realized what she was talking about. “Um… that’s me,” I answered. Likewise, I … Continue reading

First of all, there is nothing quite like realizing three days after the fact that all the links I posted on my Creative Thingies page were wrong. Here I was congratulating myself on everything I got accomplished (so far) during … Continue reading
