On Mother’s Day he sat and drank it with me. He also made me a cup this morning before work. This evening heContinue reading “Good Morning”
The Things in Life that Matter Most are Free
Money has its place but the things in life that matter most are free. I had an amazing day! I had my girls, my mama, and my husband right there with me all day.

Poetry

The Epic of Gilgamesh, from Mesopotamia, is one of the oldest surviving poems, dating back to around 2750 BC. PoetryContinue reading “Poetry”
Dreams
Dreams are such an interesting thing and I’m not the only one who thinks that. They are so interesting that an entire field of psychological study is dedicated to dreams. Dreams are ancient. Which is proven because they are consistent throughout ancient Hindu and Christian texts. Dreams could inspire a single man to take downContinue reading “Dreams”
A Good Writing Session
Something about a good writing session that feels better than most other things in life. I like feeling productive and moving forward in this journey. Tonight I connected some pieces scattered throughout the novel. The novel is now 51k long. That’s a lot of navigating. Thankfully, I took time to properly label different sections ofContinue reading “A Good Writing Session”
