The prompt was “signed, sealed, delivered.” We could write a story about pen pals, set it in a post office, or write it in the form of a letter of multiple letters back and forth. Immediately, I knew what I wanted to do. I was going to continue Jenny’s story. I wrote almost one thousand…

Music Fridays: New Kelly
I haven’t done one of these in a while, but one of my favorite artists just released two new songs from her upcoming album and since I can relate to both so much… here they are. Kelly Clarkson is now on the other side of her divorce heartache but the songs on this album were…
Music Fridays: Let’s Catch Up
It’s been a minute! The other day I was wondering about the fact that I’ve been getting a lot of likes on some older posts despite not having written anything in a while. I don’t think there’s any correlation, but it did make me wonder if I should post more regularly or less regularly. Anyway,…
