A funny thing happened to me on the way to… Isn’t that how a lot of stories begin? So, a funny thing happened to me at my annual physical checkup. Always a hoot, right? Especially when your doctor tells you that he wants you to have a few more tests. Then things get scary fast. So…

Wild Word Friday! Few people dispute the fact that the first domesticated animal was the DOG. Anthropologists and archaeologists tell us that the DOG was common in Europe (and in Asia, too) even in Neolithic times. We have the evidence of DOG bones in ancient village sites, but we also have evidence more subtle than that – in our words. In every…
Our book group met this afternoon. We discussed Jodi Picoult’s PLAIN TRUTH. A great book and a great discussion. (And cheesecake for dessert.) Our book for next month is LIGHT ON SNOW by Anita Shreve. I’ve read this one before and really enjoyed it, but will read it again to refresh my memory. I love discussing…
A couple of years ago, I decided to jump-start my writing career. First, I gave my writing career to the Lord. (Again!) Then I had a serious heart-to-heart with my husband. Neil has always believed in my dreams. He told me to go for it, that whatever happened we’d be a team as we’ve always been….
Wild Word Friday! An interesting word, AWRY. To me it seems old fashioned. How often have you heard anyone say that something is AWRY? Actually, the only person I’ve heard use that word lately is my 91-year-old father-in-law, but, old fashioned or not, I think it’s a great word and worthy of use. And, by the…
Yesterday in her post on my blog post, “Kindle,” Cissy Ford said: “Sue, are you going to put your books in the ebook format? Please??” Oh, Cissy, I wish I could. You might notice that if you try to buy ebooks online, you will be able to find ebook versions of the novels that were published…
A few months ago a friend of mine showed me her new Kindle and explained how it works. As ebooks go, the Kindle is reasonably priced, very readable, and even downloads many classics for free. It’s lightweight and small enough to carry in your purse or a roomy pocket. Let me tell you that I…
Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone! I hope you get in a little celebration, extra chocolate, a movie, maybe a meal out. Yesterday, my husband Neil and I celebrated an early Valentine’s Day with a movie and lots of popcorn. Today, the 14th, we will celebrate a little differently. Neil’s parents were married on Valentine’s Day 71…
