  • I Don’t Have Issues … I Went With The Supscription Package

    It seemed like a better deal at the time. About 2 years ago, the writing reawakened after an extended hiatus. Not sure why, but it did and I certainly wasn’t going to kick the muse out the door just because she looked different. Before that moment, I’d always thought of myself as a one-genre girl.…

  • When You Die You Need A WILL

    Right now, my parents are resisting me. Shocking, right? You roll your eyes. “Katty, what random tangent are you trying to lead me down this time?” Just roll with me. Or scroll down to the end to get to the point. Whichever. I’m an only child. My parents are getting up there in years. I…

Of course, I’ve been  grumping about how very little writing and/or…

  • Responsibility Suuuuckssssss………

  • Finding Meaning When There Isn’t Any

    This drives my husband crazy. I’ll watch a movie to death just to figure out all the cues and clues that would’ve led me to understand why the character acted thusly if I’d only paid attention the first time. “Dear, I think you’re reading too much into it,” my husband says. And he’s probably right,…
