A Light Inside: Unique in All the World and other stories
http://www.jennasthilaire.com/2014/05/unique-in-all-world-and-other-stories.html
Unique in All the World and other stories. It's a quiet Saturday—thanks be to God—and I just opened up one of my novels. The story has been whispering in the back of my mind lately, obviously anxious to be told. I can envision it as it's meant to be; I can tell it's going to be beautiful, at least to me. Today, after months of inactivity, I brought up the document and started reading. Within two paragraphs, I was nauseous. It would be easier to drop both and start something new, but I love them.

A Light Inside: Angel Voices Say to Thee and other stories
http://www.jennasthilaire.com/2013/11/angel-voices-say-to-thee-and-other.html
Angel Voices Say to Thee and other stories. Happy All Saints' Day! Wonder of wonders, miracle of miracles (now you can have that running through your head for a while): we had trick-or-treaters, plural, last night. Five knocks at the door. I was delighted. Lou and I lit the candles and turned on the Phantom of the Opera. Soundtrack (if you prefer, you could have that. Oh, and I'm done with the parenthetical phrases. I promise. Maia, having resurfaced after the front door was locked. Music of the week:.

Electronic Seer and other stories. Where we write, linking up with Masha @ Cyganeria. Like anyone didn't know where I. On the couch, of course. Wedged into the corner. But look at the new baby 'puter! Even compared to my beloved, bluescreen-happy old Dell. I've used that old computer long and hard for five years. Now, as I go into online school, it seemed like a good time to buy one that didn't have a near-death experience every time it encountered the camera card or Skype. Anyhow, I'm fond of it already.

Harry Potter Book Club: Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapter 15. It's been almost exactly a year since the last Harry Potter Book Club post went up on my blog. I, for one, have missed our conversations. People have gone on talking about books and stuff, but it really just hasn't been the same. Fifty shades of gray, listed by hexadecimal value. A weakness for puns. Not having read that book, I have nothing else of interest. To say about it. Traveled to Wales and back again, and. Some things never change. That sai...

A Light Inside: The Harry Potter Book Club: Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapters 16-17
http://www.jennasthilaire.com/2015/06/the-harry-potter-book-club-prisoner-of.html
The Harry Potter Book Club: Prisoner of Azkaban, Chapters 16-17. Before proceeding with discussion, I have two items that must be mentioned. First, the bad news: Christie has had to withdraw from posting, owing to other life commitments needing priority—things like working and having two children. She hopes to still read along, and maybe we’ll even get her to comment from time to time. :). Second: I would be failing in my duties as your resident Potterhead if I did not embed the following video. By fussi...

http://www.jennasthilaire.com/2014/07/things-to-do-when-home-alone-for-weekend.html
Things to Do When Home Alone for a Weekend. On account of being too creeped out in empty house to go to sleep, stay up till two am reading a novel about ninjas. Watch a bunch of school orientation stuff. Practice the heck out of a couple of musical instruments:. Our friends left town and bequeathed us their piano. I shot out my voice last night singing Evanescence to my own. Accompaniment. It was thoroughly enjoyable. A try, with coaching provided by YouTube. Do a week's worth of housecleaning. I miss Lo...

http://www.jennasthilaire.com/2014/09/the-crack-in-tea-cup-and-other-stories.html
The Crack in the Tea-Cup and other stories. As I walked out one evening,. Walking down Bristol Street,. The crowds upon the pavement. Were fields of harvest wheat. W H Auden, "As I Walked Out One Evening". NB: I'm going to quote several parts of this poem, including its punch line, so if you want to read it in its entirety first, you can do so at poets.org. LOOK what my piano teacher gave me. I'll love you till the ocean. Is folded and hung up to dry. And the seven stars go squawking. I love the classmat...
