Sitting in Traffic.....Inspiration to write Poetry?
I was sitting, in my car, on a freeway, (some might say a parking lot), stuck in traffic, not moving. To while away the time I was reading the bumper stickers and signs in the back windows of other automobiles. It suddenly struck me; the parallel between totems, talismans, and these stickers, magnets, paste-ons that modern man posts on his steel steed to declare his beliefs. Wondering if I’d ever get home.

Life Lessons and Inner Peace At Last
Growing up in traditionalism as I did, I found my freedom and voice later in life. I discovered that I could be so much more than a wife or mother. I COULD BE ANYTHING I WANTED TO BE. An old refrain certainly; it’s old because it’s TRUE! Don’t do it someday, DO IT TODAY!

Chapter 1rn Statesville Prison Illinois-2011 Kitty “Mother must be spinning in her grave,” Kitty muttered, as her chauffeur drove up the long driveway to the main entrance of Weston State Prison. “The daughter of a daughter of the American Revolution visiting her husband in prison. My mother would die of shame, except that she’s already gone. Thank God she didn’t live to see this day.” The tall, distinguished black man, with salt and pepper hair, who drove for Kitty Lancaster, glanced into the rear view mirror. “Excuse me, Ms. Lancaster, Ma’am?” I didn’t catch that.”r

Inspiration in the Check-Out Line
Do you remember when I wrote, ‘when something or someone inspires you, grab hold and don’t let go? inspiration, writing, story telling, blogging, blogs, short stories,, short plays, life The other day I was standing in line at the grocery store, minding my own business…preoccupied that I was leaving my dogs in the car too long….when I suddenly became aware of the man in front of me being checked out. I had picked that line because it appeared that he only had maybe six items, (boxes of something) and I was eager to get checked out. (the dogs…remember?)

Read my novel in serial form, "Women Outside the Walls" (part 6)
…….Cassandra poured the hot steaming coffee into them and, carrying both mugs, walked to the dinette in the corner. “Come over here and sit.” She instructed Alma. Sighing, Alma got slowly to her feet. She walked over and slouched into one of the kitchen chairs. “Ya want some milk for your coffee? I think it’s still good.” Alma waved her hand at the refrigerator. “Naw, I like mine black. Thanks anyway.” “Yeah, me too. My Ma always said she liked her coffee and men the same way; ‘hot and black’. But she never dated black guys as far back as I can remember.”r

A Writer's Gratitude
Recently I had a book signing at the iconic book store, E. Shaver's Book Sellers, here in Savannah, GA. What a special day! The staff made me feel so welcome. They had a nice spot all set up where the first thing the customer saw when they walked in was my table displaying my books. The store is a collection of cozy little rooms filled to the rafters with BOOKS! Old, original hardwood floors that creaked when stepped upon. And outside the occasional clip-clop of horses' hooves as carriages drove by the front door.

Surviving...and then...Thriving
I guess my absence, from contributing to this site, is a testimony to my recovery and mental health. I have spent the past few years rediscovering myself after being part of a relationship my whole life. It's been a painful, bittersweet, empowering journey. This Sunday will be the nine year anniversary of when my husband took his own life.
