Currently Reading

I'm part way through 3 books right now. This one is exciting because while I have read some old chinese poetry in school years ago, I have not read that much contemporary Chinese poetry. Of course, to be fair, American schools don't teach American contemporary poetry, either. But I am finding poets with provocative images … Continue reading Currently Reading

Okay, This Time It’s For Good

I deleted my writing/personal Instagram and my art Instagrams. I feel free! I am still on social media to network dogs in high kill shelters with fosters or adopters. But no more selfies (which always made me feel self absorbed). No more. No more getting dopamine hits from likes. I downloaded samples of 39 books … Continue reading Okay, This Time It’s For Good

New Notebooks for Learning

I was on amazon late one night when I shouldn't have been, and I absolutely loved these composition books I saw with rainbow pages inside. They came 6 to a pack. So I gave one to my daughter, and the others I'm going to use to take notes in my personal curriculum. On top of … Continue reading New Notebooks for Learning

Instagram, Studio Life

I reinstated my writing Instagram, but not my trad account. I missed my small community on the writing account. And a record of the last decade of my life. I've been on it a lot less though. So the other night my husband took me by surprise. I can't remember exactly what we were talking … Continue reading Instagram, Studio Life

I Deleted my Writing/Personal Instagram

Last night I deleted my longest standing Instagram account. I have had it for at least 10 years. It was a record of my life. I decided I don't want to share my life on Instagram anymore. I kept my art account, as well as the account where I network dogs. But my days of … Continue reading I Deleted my Writing/Personal Instagram

Excellent, Creative Novel

Raptor Red is the story of a Utahraptor. It's scientifically rich, wildly imaginative, very heart stirring, and super unique. It's an entire novel told from the perspective of a female Utahraptor. Raptor Red is her name. The author truly drew me in not only with the fantastic premise, but with character development that made me … Continue reading Excellent, Creative Novel

New Color Project?

I'm excited. I've been planning a new project about color that I'm going to post on one of my other blogs. It currently houses some paintings and photos. I don't think I'll take those down, but I want to write short and spiritual nonfiction or prose poetry (and free verse) about each color, and in … Continue reading New Color Project?

YouTube Channel Plans

Right now my little YouTube channel has 44 subs or so. I think part of my problem is that I don't have a niche. I talk about book reviews and religion and homemaking and I tell funny stuff, and bible journaling and do camera unboxings. That might just be too much. People who are interested … Continue reading YouTube Channel Plans

I Have Magazines!

There are so many kinds of magazines for different interests. Reading interesting magazines and looking at the fascinating photographs makes me feel more alive and in touch with myself. I might have downloaded two magazine apps today and gone a little crazy buying issues. Last night I didn't get to sleep until past 3 am. … Continue reading I Have Magazines!
