Musings
Fall’s Invitation
The Fall Equinox reminds us of balance and the interaction of the light and the dark. It is the momentary pause as we take in a big inhale and sit with this balance point before we exhale into the shorter days and longer nights ahead.
August Musings
The month of August is already halfway over, a bittersweet month filled with endings and new beginnings. It means we’re moving toward summer’s end—the bloom of many of summer’s fruits, vegetables, and flowers is slowing down. Many crops are being harvested as we begin the preparations for the coming of fall and winter.
Writing Your Story in Longhand
Writing in longhand is a dying art. From my vantage point, being in my sixties, I feel sad that cursive writing is an art form we may lose completely in the not-so-distant future. As a matter of fact, in 2010, the US government officially removed cursive from the...
Ah Springtime!
I’ve just returned from a two-week visit to the land of my ancestors: Italy. It is the place where my heart yearns to dwell. Surrounded by vivid evidence of springtime, with green grasses and flowers in bloom, it was especially hard to leave this time. Here in...
Mosaic Heart Turns 1
THE JOURNEY FROM WRITER TO PUBLISHED AUTHOR! One year ago, in February 2022, Mosaic Heart: Pieces of an Unfinished Life was birthed into the world. It had taken more than ten years to write, shape, and refine the story I needed to share. And, although it took so many...
You and Your Story Matter
When it comes to writing our stories, so often we stop before we ever begin. We shut down that inner urge to share our stories. We convince ourselves that we are not important or worthy to share them. Yet, for those of us being called to write, the beckoning doesn’t...
Winter Solstice 2022
Most authors who work with me soon learn that my spirituality comes through, acknowledging the connection to my intuition and to the guidance I receive as we work together. It’s impossible for me to keep it hidden from my clients; yet, I don’t normally put too much...
The Sacred Practice of Journaling
At a recent book launch for an author I’d worked with, I had the opportunity to chat with a gentleman about writing, and more specifically, journaling. He told me he’s journaled for most of his life and recently took the time to read through his journals. He said that...
Why Did It Take More Than Ten Years to Write My Memoir?
I’ve been asked many times why Mosaic Heart took so many years to write. Sometimes people follow that question with “Is this normal?” I don’t think it’s the norm to take more than ten years to write a book, but I also don’t believe my experience is that unusual. A...
Finding Balance
Almost six months have passed since I published Mosaic Heart: Pieces of an Unfinished Life. It’s hard to believe that she has been out in the world for almost half a year already. And although I say this to authors consistently, it’s also hard to believe how much...
