on What my writing Isn’t
Someone on Twitter was kind enough to send me a comment via DM about her reasons for deciding not to read my work. Essentially this post encapsulates her comment and my reply, which she entirely motivated. Beltamar’s War, and … Continue reading
on Money pt3
This is the third post in my ruminations on denominations. aka on Money. Money is a disassociator. Wait a moment! Disassociator isn’t even a word! Strange how it takes a word that doesn’t exist to adequately describe money, which shouldn’t … Continue reading
on Words
Words are such powerful things. Words can be a power for good when used well, and a power for ill when used wrong. Something seems wrong with that last sentence, doesn’t it? But this post isn’t about grammatical errors, it … Continue reading
on a Woman’s Wiles

on Time
If you’re like me you wonder about things, a lot. You think about strange things, silly things, mundane things, and things that really matter. One of the stranger things I’ve wondered about for years, which have become decades {no exaggeration}, … Continue reading
on Now

on Perfect Imperfections
Nature gives us wonders, people give us art. Beauty overwhelms. It is literally everywhere, all we need do is take the time to look. The image of imperfect perfection above is one of the early Althea blossoms on a shrub … Continue reading
on Intangibles
