Eat up, you're at your Auntie's

Eat up, you’re at your Auntie’s



Castor beans are harmless enough companions, alongside

Foxgloves blooming in the garden in Spring. But,

Each hides a secret

Each packs a punch.

Like when you don’t pay attention to habits and

addiction comes to call,

or when the water in the… Continue

Wonder



How your dark lashes veil a sure and tested sounding

And, how loon crying, echoes the call of dawn on Okanagan Lake.



How a breath of Claire’s freshly washed hair somehow expands my lungs

And, how my lips feel, against your unshaven cheek.



How the backyard lilac opening, diffuses a heady spring

And, summer breaks, under my tongue, with chocolate bits of a dipped DQ cone.



And the… Continue

Audition

You walk in, full arms all papers, water bottle and inadvertent slam door against the wall and a cringe sorry to nobody in particular in the empty waiting room. You try for the appearance of nonchalance like you’ve done this … Continue reading

Hi Lesley Anne!  I just posted a children's poem on my blog and wondered if you would peruse it. I was wondering if I could have it made into a small book along with beautiful pictures of the different birds. It may sell in a Christian bookstore setting. Please give me your honest opinion. Many thanks. Elizabeth.

Thank you for the welcome. I'm still settling down after helping at the Wellness & Writing Connections conference. Hopefully I'll be participating around here sooner rather than later.

Hi Lesley-Anne,

Thanks for the warm welcome! I look forward to further interactions on the site.

Thank you for welcoming me, Lesley-Anne. You know, the voice of self-doubt is still way too prevalent in my thinking. I came to this group and my internal dialogue was yapping away, "You know, they are all professionals and won't accept you." I told it to shut up and hit send. I'm looking forward to the discussions I'll find here. It's a renewal for me and I'm excited! I hope that I can contribute to your site, as well, and be an asset here.

The Mystery Writer as an Agent of Karma

I’m often asked why I choose to write mysteries, sometimes in a way that suggests I’m throwing away any writing talent I have. Mysteries are often deemed formulaic and crass, dealing with brutal crimes and unsavory characters and leading to a…See More
