Nonspecific Writerly Angst, January Edition

I’ve heard that some writers who win awards have a block afterward. A time in which it’s hard/impossible for them to write something new, possibly for fear that it won’t measure up. I’ve heard that some writers who have finished a successful series get freaked out (for my lack of a better term) by an

We have a winner…

Randomness has occurred, my friends. Things are happening. I’m telling you what. Sian, congratulations. You win REACHED for your very own (or to arm-wrestle over with your girls, apparently). More randomness. Ready? Thanksgiving is this week. I’m bringing mashed potatoes (with cream cheese, of course) and pie (ditto) and rolls. Bring on the white starches.

Things.

1. It SNEW. White and puffery gorgeousness is all around here. Maybe I’ll take a picture or something. Or you can just imagine it. Many inches of loveliness. Here’s why I find it so lovely: I get to stay inside today. 2. Hot chocolate. On the stove. I made it myself. From INGREDIENTS. You know.

Dear Gardeners, I Need Help.

I really do. This yard of mine is misbehaving. The grass is okay, considering we had almost no snow this past winter, and it hasn’t really rained, um, at all. But my lilacs? Never bloomed.

Today.

I tried to steal the photo from FaceBook. Fail. But today is the day that Doc takes Marty back to the future. June 27, 2012. I posted a screen shot of it on Husband’s wall. It made me strangely happy. It’s Kid 3’s birthday. She’s eleven. And adorable. And has great hair. We saw Brave

New! New! New!

I know, right? It’s a new year, and I’m already trampling all over my Exclamation Point Embargo. Hey, you know what? If a girl can’t throw down a few exclamation points, what’s the point of anything? Okay. Sorry. I got carried away. But it IS, in fact, the sort-of-beginning of a new year, the Kids

Wow. Wow. Wow.

Remember how I love the fact that I’m a stay-home kind of Mom? And that I have all manner of time to do whatever I feel like doing, such as baking things, and writing things, and planning things, and wrapping things, and writing some more things, and reading things, and napping and stuff? Remember? I

Thinking About Boy Readers

There is a lot of talk about boy readers out there, if you’re so inclined to hear it. Some of it is awesome. Some of it is strange. Some of it makes me desire to speak out. (For instance, I hear some talk that boys will only read a “realistic contemporary” book if it’s “realistic
