This is my Facebook post from this morning. I will add to it below: I have been writing, but I will admit to having been EXTREMELY DISTRACTED by the US political landscape over the past six months.

A big part of this includes the … Continue reading How PERSONAL STYLE Helps Me to Embrace my BODY

Foul-O-Matic. Insult, swear, and curse word generator. It’s real. Google it. I succumbed to its lure. I confess: I was drawn in by its politically incorrect, crude, and perhaps even sleazy appeal. And I’m not proud of this lowly moment in my word-finding life. But I did it. I am guilty. Okay? So sue me. … Continue reading I’m Guilty… of creative cursing.
