Blogging
« Previous EntriesNew Look, Looking Forward
Monday, June 2nd, 2008I remember when I first started blogging back in November 2006. It was fun. It was exciting. It was draining. It allowed me to uncover a writing voice I didn’t know existed. I have been grateful for the opportunities it has given me to get to know a few people [...]
I am thankful for…honesty in the midst of opportunistic journalism
Wednesday, April 18th, 2007As we all know, an horrific tragedy occurred on the campus of Virginia Tech on Monday, April 16th. I cannot imagine being the parent of any of the children who lost their lives that day. I can only extend condolences and prayers to the families of the victims, to those still fighting for [...]
“Thinking” About It – Thinking Blogger Award
Saturday, April 14th, 2007One of the great things about being here in the world of blogging is I’ve been able to begin developing my voice to attempt to talk about some things that are important to women (and men too!). Since I’ve started, I’ve met so many great people who’ve encouraged me along the way, tagged me [...]
Did You Leave A Comment?
Wednesday, April 11th, 2007Isn’t technology the most wonderful “thing”? I tried to upgrade to the latest version of WordPress, and voila! My whole blog disappeared, along with most of the comments my wonderful readers left here Wednesday, April 11th. Moreover, this “guffaw” affected my husband Manchild’s blog as well; many comments left for him on Wednesday disappeared as [...]

Simply Successful Secrets
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007The best thing I love about blogging is the potential for learning from the wisdom and insight of other people. I can imagine how long it would’ve taken to “meet” the wonderful people I’ve met since I began back in November. And through this fabulous community, I’ve grown a little, if not more. [...]
Am I Talking To You?
Thursday, March 15th, 2007Yvonne at Grow Your Writing Business recently tagged me for a great meme that, with your feedback, will help me better understand and focus on the folks for whom I write in this blog. The “original” first question of the meme is “To Whom Do You Blog?” Yvonne reworded the question to read [...]
Lessons from Mister Rogers
Wednesday, March 14th, 2007I love books! I am a book hound! I enjoy being in places where I am surrounded by literary works of all types. (That, in fact, is how I met my husband – at Border’s Books in Atlanta, GA). I had the opportunity to spend some time in our high school [...]
I’m A Top Momma!
Friday, March 2nd, 2007I’m now a “Top Momma”! What does this mean? It means that I made the front page of TopMomma! And if you’d like, you can go to the front page of TopMomma and click on the eye – you know, the one that looks like this:
The more people click, the [...]
Let’s Get This Party Started!
Thursday, March 1st, 2007When I was in college in the early 80s, I loved to go to what we referred to as “sets” - the fraternity and sorority parties. Really, these parties were dances where, typically, step shows would take place. I loved those dances because, frankly, I loved to dance (and I was good at it).
When I graduated from college [...]
