Just another WordPress.com site. Lessons Learned in Nicaragua. I Need to Relax →. September 6, 2014. A tiny moth, its wings whirring so fast I can’t make them out, hovers over the grass. The moth rests on an elongated blade and just as suddenly as I notice it, disappears. The lawn is long and lush, just the way I like it. Only when it still holds the early morning dew and my shoes become wet, do I wish it were shorter. View all posts by writerladyjane →. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. Jane, your...

Fairfield Writer’s Blog. Literary Connections at the Fairfield CT Public Library. The Sweet Small Space. Hello writers, this is Adair Heitmann penning my post to you today. As you’ve seen from my previous blogs many of my posts are about the actual act of writing. As a working mother, writing has to fit into segmented blocks of time. I’m always open for inspiration on how others do it. Recently I found encouragement in a 21-year-old online issue of. Interviews Toni Morrison, The Art of Fiction No. 134.

Just another WordPress.com site. I Need to Relax. Two Documents on My Desk →. May 20, 2015. Now, after ten years of having him gone, the garden is mine. The first five years, I felt as if I was barely keeping up with maintaining what was there. A college student, who became a family friend, weeded while he was home for the summer. Then he graduated and moved away, leaving me in charge of its care. And now my ex-husband has been out of prison for a year. He’s bought a house in Litchfield County ...It&#821...

A few weeks ago, I received a phone call, one of the many, unidentified calls that’s usually a solicitation. I picked it up and then immediately hung up, to silence the ringer. But the phone rang again and it was the same number. Curious, I answered it. As soon as I said hello, a pleasant woman told me that she was a producer for the television program,. Then I stopped laughing. The date of the trial is schedu...

Too Many Cooks by Dana Bate. My kitchen renovation is in full swing right now, which means that I've been pretty inactive on my website - however, I've still managed to squeeze in reading a book or two. One I read recently was. And I thoroughly enjoyed it. In tone, her writing reminds me of one of my favorite romance authors, Kristan Higgins. I've written a full review for. Magazine, which you can read here. I hope that you enjoy reading it as much as I did! Nigeria Revisited by Catherine Onyemelukwe.

Kitchen Explosion, Plus Other News. Well, not literally. But close. In the past month or so, we discovered water in our basement. Which led to the discovery of a leak in our kitchen. Which led to the discovery of all our pipes being old and rusted. Which led to our replacing every single pipe in the house and having a kitchen which is composed mostly of absences - our cabinets and half our floor are now gone. It's been an eventful month, to say the least. My second story is "An Absence of Stars,". Like m...

One photo one story. ASchool.in.the.Desert. While I was in Amman patiently waiting for the education ministry’s approval to start taking photos at schools, I came across a unique project called the Bayer Tent. Without any hesitation I proposed the idea to my journalist friend Suha Maayeh, who enthusiastically agreed to work on the story. We hired a driver and set up a date to start the desert journey.
