Mid-Week Muse: Warm Weather

Mid-Week Muse: Warm Weather

I live in New York and lately this has been my life. I don’t mind snow. It’s not all bad. Sometimes it can be quite pretty. Unfortunately, like most people, I have to venture outside in the snow and that can be a pain. Right now, I’m in Florida sitting out on the lania listening […]

Certain movies always inspire me, but there was one scene in particular that filled my chest with bubbles.

Monday Inspiration: Books

Monday Inspiration: Books

Books have and will always be a big inspiration. Some books inspire you to write. Some inspire you to run outside and spin around in the rain. Some inspire you to spend an hour snuggled on the couch with someone you love. And some inspire you to be better. A better writer. A better mother. […]

Since I work during the day, every moment spent with her is treasured.  Right now my little girl is sitting […]
