I am excited to debut on Her View From Home this morning. I’m writing a little story about my sweet friend Angela. It’s all her fault that I love fall scented candles. Read more here.
And in case you weren’t sure, Hadley is currently 9 going on 14. Lord, help me. This has absolutely nothing to do with my writing (yet). I am just sharing a bit of news.
Over on Makes You Mom, I wrote one of the hardest essays I’ve written in a long time. It doesn’t matter how long it took me to write it, but there were lots of tears and revisions. There were lots of crumpled up drafts and lots of “I’m walking away from this piece of….” well, you get the idea. I don’t need to use naughty words. The essay is about a spider and a locksmith, and my struggle to come to terms with the stories I weave in my head. Don’t read it if you’re in a good mood. You can find it here.
Here’s a picture to cheer you up if you did read it. Who can’t be happy looking at those blue eyes? Also, it was taken on a cold Tuesday afternoon when we were supposed to be doing homework, but I decided ice-cream with LOTS of sprinkles (for me) was in order.
Thanks for clicking over and reading my work.
