Blog postWell we are in the part of the year where time feels as though it is starting to speed up. I meant to get so much more done in the first half of the year, and it just didn’t seem to come together. But I am pretty energized now, and hopefully I can use the summer to catch up on a number of things. (Haha -“best laid plans” – I am sure).
Hubby and I had our vaccines a couple of days apart, the first round was easy-peezy. The second round…well… a little more challenging, but we got throug -
Blog postI have been having a difficult time juggling all the different projects on my “to-do” list, with business taking priority over painting and even writing. I am transitioning out of a few volunteer positions, and helping to orient the new volunteers, so by mid-summer I will have freed up enough time to refocus on some of my art projects.
I have been playing with watercolors off and on, this past few months. If you paint, you know how different the watercolors are from acrylics and oils -
Blog postToday I deactivated one of my social media accounts (I won’t say which one, in case I need to reactivate it someday). I had reached a point in my reading the threads where I have come to the conclusion that sometimes, very rare times, ignorance is indeed, bliss.
The proverbial straw that broke the camel’s back was a thread that followed after a post that was a gentle reminder not to use illegal fireworks because it is upsetting people with PTSD, small children, and pets; and can cause -
Blog postWatching the news is like watching a window into an alternate reality. Between weird “challenges” on social media and people literally pumping gas into plastic bags to hoard (plastic which will be broken down by the gasoline and made even thinner so it will be even more likely to burst spreading highly volatile liquid death all over – honestly, did everyone snooze through chemistry class?), I am happier than ever being an introvert who enjoys remaining “sheltered” in place.

Blog postThis piece of flash fiction was written after talking to a friend who was reminiscing about how we used to have brunch at a certain diner every week or so, and how much she missed it. We got to know most of the waitstaff there, and the cook – all of whom were sweet and decent human beings. Going there was like visiting with a good friend’s family. We knew about their kids, their hopes, their dreams. And they always welcomed us like good friends – though really, they knew nothing at all about

Blog postSome of you have may recall me mentioning that I was working on an alternate history steampunk story, and I hope to make it a series. Some of you may also have seen that the Amazon self-publishing platform has just launched a program called Vella – which allows an author to publish in episodes (which brought to mind the magazines of old, like the Strand, which published episodic stories).
The first episode of Kit Freestone and the Dragon Key – “Installing an Imposter”, will be availab -
Blog postAs preface to all my weird stories, I feel obligated to let people know that I was raised on “Fractured Fairy Tales” and “Twilight Zone” and “Outer Limits”…then later “Night Gallery” held me in thrall. So I feel it only natural that my imagination heads into the weird and slightly horrific.
This story “The Tattoo” is also one from the old Fantastic Femme Fiction group of weird stories. I liked writing this one, and it still flutters around in my head from time to time, so I thought I -
Blog postThis poem is from a collection I published in 2019 – Unringing the Bell – it is a quick nod to justice as it weighs a soul moving from this life to the next. As a child I loved reading mythologies from various cultures. The Egyptian weighing of the soul against a feather (with the soul symbolized by the heart), was always intriguing to me – and brought to mind the term “light hearted” whenever I saw the illustrations – much to the chagrin of my English teacher at the time. That same English t

Blog postThis qualifies as weird flash fiction, was published in the Fantastic Femme Fiction ezine (now defunct), and had quite a few interesting comments generated from its first audience. Apparently I struck a nerve with some folks. Hopefully you can just enjoy it.
Sara, who was four, sat with her Mom – Diana, in the well-appointed waiting room with hands folded on her lap and no fidgeting. Once in a while Sara would look at the papers that were framed on the wall with fancy writing, or chec -
Blog postThis was my homage to Cthulhu Mythos and Saturday morning horror movies from my childhood. It was originally published in Fantastic Femme Fiction (now defunct) and I am sharing it with you this fine Saturday – because it is a perfect day for B Horror movies. Enjoy
Millie Kruza and her friends were good girls. They were usually home on time, did their homework and chores, and while they giggled and flirted with boys, none of them had yet taken the plunge and gone on a date. It was very
