Tough Guy

Husband came home late from basketball. Usually when he plays that long (from 5.30 – 7.00) he looks a lot… wetter. And smells, well, gross. Today he didn’t. He came in looking only a little embarrassed. I said, “How was it?” like a good wife, and he smiled and shrugged. Uh-oh. “Did you get hurt?*”

Totally Not the Scary Dad

In High School, my dad was sort of Surrogate Dad to all kinds of my friends. He was the dad people wanted to hang out with. In fact, sometimes, I’d come home and find out that a friend had come over to visit, and when I wasn’t there, the friends would hang with my parents

Father’s Week

So this is the week leading up to Father’s Day. I will remind you of it now and then, in case you might need to stop blog-reading and hustle over to Amazon or iTunes to buy something for your man/dad/grandpa. I can sit here, comfortably blogging the day away, because I don’t actually need to

Fun reading

I just finished reading a manuscript for a friend. It was brilliant. I want to speak in capitals and use copious exclamation points, but I won’t – because I want to be taken seriously, here, not like a cheerleader with anxiety. I am very lucky to have writergirl friends, ones with creative capacities that absolutely

Word Count Update

This morning I hit 40, 000 words! Out of 50, 000! For those of us less mathematically inclined, that’s 80%. (Actually, Im at 40, 111 – but the math is not happening. So 80% it is. As far as I know.) It’s been fun to see the story take shape, and I got another laugh
