Storytelling. Fact and fiction. One word at a time.
I've been feeling restless. So, you know, that was my sign to make a list. Yeah---I'm the queen of lists. I love lists so much that I wrote a book about it. This is a shameless plug for my book (in case you didn't notice). Check it out here if you want. I'm not posting... Continue Reading →
How I feel about NYE I am a superstitious person---especially about New Year's Eve. I have blogged about the idea of collective consciousness and believe that this day's energy sets a tone for the rest of the year.

However the other night I stood on my little balcony and looked towards the east. The glow of downtown seemed brighter than normal? I took... Continue Reading →
I didn't even know the Whistler Independent Book Awards existed until I began writing. If you're curious check out their page here. I am now very familiar with this book award because I am a writer and I have gone the path of partnership publishing. My trusty publisher Heather Nickel of YNWP sent My List,... Continue Reading →
I donated My List My Rules: The Year a Checklist Changed My Life and left a handwritten letter inside for the reader. I hope the novelty of a handwritten letter lands well.
