I worried about the location and if tea and finger sandwiches would be enough to sustain us through the... Continue Reading →
When I found out St. Dunston's in the East had a secret garden not far from the Tower of London, I had to check it out. St. Dunston's in the East, (don't you love that name?) was built in the middle ages, 1100 AD, and expanded in 1391. It cost twenty-four hundred pounds to repair... Continue Reading →
Breckenridge, Colorado has hosted the International Snow Sculpture Championships since 1990. This year, sixteen teams from around the world chiseled and sculpted huge mounds of snow packed into 20-ton blocks. They had ninety-six hours to complete these magnificent but temporary works of art.

Although I noticed the weather this morning, it took me a while, a lot more than a while, to discover my plumage. After laughing, I wondered if it was a sign or a bizarre twist of fate. Should I play the lottery? Would this be my lucky day? What if editing a fantasy thriller unlocked... Continue Reading →
I'm the queen of embarrassing injuries. Four of them hit me in a row last year, defying the bad luck comes in threes superstition. Calf tears, hamstring pulls, and several ankle sprains as a tennis player should have taught me what to do when injured. Yep, but I can be the queen of major mistakes too.... Continue Reading →
