Construction — both Familial and Structural

This winter we had a freeze-thaw cycle that was murder on the pavement, no more so than at the bit of cul de sac which abuts our front yard. Then we had a lot of precipitation. The result was a teensy sink hole at the foot of our driveway which hasn’t dried since last fall. In [...]

New Digs, Gratuitous Daniel Craig, and Hopeful Writing Links

I am master procrastinator, mistress of the citrus.   I am seriously disturbed.   As you may have noticed, I have a new blog template, and I’m torn between nostalgia for my stripes and pleasure with my blog’s sleeker new lines. (Perhaps a mentality echoed by my readership, because while a few people have visited, not one said, “Nice [...]

Twitterscaping: Why I’m Abandoning Follow Friday and Writer Wednesday Hashtags

Twitterscaping (verb) – to manicure one’s Twitter feed so as to enhance genuine relationships and remove unwelcome detritus. I’ve had a love-hate relationship with certain practices on Twitter from the beginning, most notably the rituals of Writer Wednesday (#WW) and Follow Friday (#FF). I understand their purpose. I applaud any measure which allows people to recognize one another from a place of [...]

Planning Jan is Planning

Soft and limp — not words one typically associates with a romance writer, but this is my reality at present. In terms of the food prepared in the kitchen. On account of Molly’s oral surgery. Yes, peeps, my daughter had her wisdom teeth extracted on Monday. (Later I’ll do research because it’s not obvious to me why they earned [...]

Picking a Blog Name: the Origins of Tartitude

Some of you have asked how I came up with the title for this blog and until now I have kept that secret, as if it were the eleven herbs and spices developed by Colonel Sanders.* However, because I aspire to be as generous a person as I am modest, I have reconsidered. Also, I needed a blog topic for [...]

5 Things to Know Before WordPress Freshly-Presses You

Some of you already know I had the good fortune to have WordPress pluck Monday’s post from obscurity, and make it an article on their home page. Heck, some of you even knew before I did and were kind enough to pass the information along. Thank you! For those curious about the experience, I thought to do a brief post-mortem:
