Real-life soap drama shatters idyllic writing retreat

As promised, here’s what I wrote about Wellspring Retreat House when I visited in August of 2015. After two feet of snow, it looks very different today. I’ll post some of the photos in the next installment. Working on my memoir, SUBDURAL, and the writing’s going well, “Wherever you go, there you are.” That’s the… [Read More]

Hunkering down at Wellspring for a winter writer’s retreat

Michael Easton’s mysterious doctor Hamilton Finn

It’s been two weeks since Michael Easton returned to General Hospital as the mysterious doctor Hamilton Finn—three episodes per week, for a grand total of six, and in half of them he’s been shown shooting up with some mysterious substance from a gigantic syringe. We don’t yet know the contents, but the phases he goes… [Read More]

Fear and habit: my biggest writing bugaboos

Monday, March 21 Block Busting: Blasting through the Barriers to Creativity. That’s the catchy title I came up with for a workshop I’ll be delivering at least twice in the coming months: once for the Hudson Valley Writers Guild in June, and once for the Capital Region chapter of the Romance Writers of America in… [Read More]
