This Poetry Friday finds the muse with me. I just wrote a poem on the subject of a fabled villain. The words came easily such as they do when I mull them over in my head for several days. The idea is not mine. It is a prompt from our state poetry group, the Wisconsin…
I’ve been weighing whether to participate in a daily poetry project this month. And while I have a lot on my plate already, I’d like to produce a poem a day this month. The writing of my poetry falls into a habit of writing couplets – and although I like the cadence, rhythm, and rhyme…
March has been a great month for my articles on Medium.com. After a very slow February where I barely made the partnership fee of $5.00 from my revenue, March ended up being very different – so far bringing in six times that amount – my highest income ever off the site. What was the difference…

When we were on vacation recently we met a couple. The woman, a lovely person in her mid-fifties, kept referring to the island of St. John as her happy place. She and her husband had been going to the island to vacation for the last thirty years. In April, her nephew is getting married there….
Here in the upper Midwest, the winter can seem endless. Gray skies, wind, snow, and sometimes sub-zero temperatures are common. Even for someone with a lot of hobbies like me, one needs something to pass the time. We’ve found that jigsaw puzzles are a great way to do just that! Luckily, we have a large…
