Nobody is Buying My Book
It’s been six months since my cousin, Jesse bought two of my books on Amazon, one for herself and one for her sister. Not a sale since. Not even a hit on Facebook or my website. I hosted an evening of story telling in my back yard, and danced around with my book hoping for…
The Wizard of Opthamology
I struggled to read the third line of the eye chart with one hand over my right eye “F O C..no, P D O..no, I can’t do it” I almost cried. It wasn’t too much better with my glasses or the little apparatus with the holes in it. The other eye wasn’t much better. I…

Panama Hottie
One week before my trip to Panama, I freaked out. I was reading the booklet sent with the trip’s daily itinerary and travel instructions. It didn’t look like the beautiful book Caravan tours sent to excite me to travel to exotic locations for very reasonable rates. There were no colorful photos of beaches, rain forests,…
Return to the Run-way
June, 2015 I used to enjoy going to Story Salon and sitting quietly in the back sipping a cup of coffee or a nibbling on a stale cookie. I liked hiding in the shadows and not being recognized or acknowledged, just waiting my turn nervously to be next to tell a story. Then I…
