It’s Time For Spring Ephemerals & Rebirth
It’s been a very busy week. I’ll break it down for you before I get to some poetry. Jewelry Decisions – If you read my recent post, you’ll know that I’ve been up in the air about what to do with my hobby of making handcrafted jewelry. A couple of things steered me in one…

Poetry Friday: A New Website
Hello, Poetry Friday friends! I hope this finds you well, as I missed the round-up last week. I’ve been feverishly working on a new website, hoping to completely transition off WordPress by the end of June. We’ll see. There are a few things that I am not sure about as far as how they’ll work,…

Round up of My Articles on Our Trip to Scotland
Most of my articles appear on my Medium.com page under my name. But, if you follow me here instead of there, I thought I’d post friend links to the articles. Friend links are Medium’s way of allowing access to articles to those who are not Medium members. Obviously, the platform would like more members, and…
