Rebooting the New Year

Rebooting the New Year

I don’t know about you, but for me, this winter has been a washout. I survived the holidays, but I couldn’t get it together to make New Year’s resolutions, much less follow them. My creativity has been in hibernation, but now that the days are getting longer, I’m feeling stirrings of new life. And Daylight… [Read More]

Never too late for writing resolutions

Never too late for writing resolutions

Welcome to my first blog post for 2019.* January’s speeding by, and I still haven’t taken down my Christmas tree. It’s pretty droopy, but even so, I hate to see it go. I had vowed to take it down by Martin Luther King day, but that’s tomorrow, much too soon. Here in Wynantskill in upstate… [Read More]

Can my Blue Sky Day Designer get me organized in 2018?

I tossed off this poem yesterday afternoon so I’d have something new to read at the Caffe Lena open mic last night.

I first encountered Emily through the International Women’s Writing Guild years ago, when they were holding their annual summer conferences at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York. I gained a lot from her five-day workshop,… [Read More]

A new year, a new book project

At yesterday’s New Year’s service at church, we sat in a circle, passed around a talking stick, and shared our goals and resolutions for the year ahead. I announced two: Work on creating a serene, organized home environment Complete the presentation for my new book project on creativity, then find an agent and publisher The… [Read More]

Trashing the old year, welcoming the new

Trashing the old year, welcoming the new

Tonight is New Year’s Eve, and I’ve barely finished trimming my Christmas tree. Don’t tell me, I know—other folks are already taking theirs down, and a couple of days ago, I spied one of our town’s yellow highway department trucks cruising the neighborhood with one of those giant vacuum and chipper combinations, the kind they… [Read More]
