I've met a lot of interesting people as I've delved into the writing world. One of the coolest people I've met is author Erin Rhew. I know--she's gorgeous and has purple hair. Lucky for us, instead of pursuing modeling she became a writer and wrote this amazing series called The Fulfillment Series. Book Three, The Fulfillment released on October…
Spreading Good Writerly News!
Today I have excellent news to share! I'm going to be a published author! (Woot woot! *Happy dances* and simultaneously pops Tums).

Daily Prompt (From Yesterday)- Page 82 Stress

If you write it . . .
One of my all-time favorite movies is Field of Dreams (1989; Academy Awards Best Picture Nominee 1990). Baseball, Iowa, James Earl Jones, Shoeless Joe, dreams, hopes, tears . . . sigh.

“Passed” vs. “Past”
Today a co-worker asked me whether you ran something "past" someone, or ran it "passed" someone. After a google search and a minor debate, we decided that we "ran something by" someone. Avoidance of grammar rules is always the easiest route. Tonight I thought I'd delve into that question a little. To all of you…

What’s Up, Blogtropolis??!!!
HI EVERYONE! I've missed being here on WordPress! In fact, I feel like everything has changed here-- there must have been some sort of update because my "Add New Post" screen that I'm looking at as I type this looks so faaannnncy schmancy! Different font, updated look. It's so pretty and easy on the eyes.…
