Eek! The time has come.Three months ago I agreed to adjudicate in the Nottingham Writers' Club summer prose competition. I have now received the manuscripts and I have a few weeks to come up with a winner, a second and a third. Not only that, I have to publicly justify my decision for choosing the top three places and write critiques for every single entry.This will not be news to those of you who...
I spent this weekend at my sister's wedding. She was married at The Cranbrook House and Gardens. The house was beautiful, dark, and filled with wood paneling and old Gothic touches that made it feel more haunted than Hillhouse. I could almost imagine it whispering to me. I hadn't done any...

I recently read a post by one of my friends discussing various (financial) goals she made for herself and accomplished, and it made me seriously consider the state of my own affairs/life.

A couple of weeks ago we had a poetry workshop at Nottingham Writers' Club run by humorous poet Les Baynton. The task he set us was to write a poem in twenty minutes, one of the choice of themes being the recent episode with Prince Harry and those pictures. I couldn't come up with anything at the time although many attendees did manage some very funny pieces.Events have moved on since then but I thought...
Over the years, some of my favorite movies have been dark movies for children. Long before I had children, movies like The Nightmare Before Christmas and Corpse Bride made me giddy with dark delight. They featured ghosts, ghouls, and all things dark and wonderful. That is why this year's movie selection has...

When I was twenty one years old, my new husband's family offered to sell us a house that had been in his family for generations at an incredibly cheap price. They had a difficult time keeping it rented and did not want to hassle with it anymore. We jumped at the opportunity and moved in almost immediately. It was only a matter...

Ever since, people often find the cause and effect of every living and non-living things under the sun, and even the reason of events that occurred which plagued the nation or gave benefit on them. Curiosity can kill cat., that's the essence of being a human. Without unlimited questions, desires and necessities there could be no progress to man-kind. Before, going to the moon is just a product of...
Yesterday, Arkansas released the names of those who passed the bar exam. I was at my little brother's music lesson with a monstrous stress headache. Then the fire alarm went off, which I thought was probably the worst thing that could have happened to my poor, fragile little head. Until I tried to load the Arkansas...
