Coffee Conversations with a Purple Girl
Good morning, friends! It is finally, officially, the Christmas season! My husband insisted that we wait until December proper to start decorating, so I’m not exactly surrounded by holiday spirit, yet, but we’ll get there. This week I have plans to put up the tree and pull out the wreath and maybe even put batteries […]
Good morning, friends, it’s the first day of spring! The sun is shining, the birds are singing outside my window and my cats are shedding white hair all over everything. Truly it is spring indeed! And, in a strange twist of fate, it actually feels a little spring-ish. I just walked outside without my jacket […]
I remember watching the news just to see if there was school tomorrow. I remember scanning the schools as they scrolled across the bottom of the screen, hoping that mine would be there. There’s really nothing like a snow day, especially when you’re a kid and you have a big hill to sled on. It’s […]
Good morning, dear friends, I’ve just finished a weekend of parties which kicks off all the parties for the rest of the year. The thing about having friends and being involved in things and having a job, I guess, is that you get people want to celebrate Christmas in those groups and so they throw […]
Good Morning, friends! As you all know, I do NaNoWriMo every year. I’m not successful at it, but I always give it a try! Some of you may realize that it is July right now and not November, which is the actual National Novel Writing Month. Apparently, they have an online camp this month which […]
So as you all know, we moved last week. Well, technically the week before that, but it feels like last week, so we’ll go with that. We picked the absolute coldest Saturday of the year thus far to move from our apartment of two years to our new home in a house that we plan […]
First I’d like to apologize for the late post. I didn’t have time this morning to write before we went out for the day. I’m writing to you now, having just returned from a day of wandering around Pittsburgh in a drizzling sort of rain with my in-laws. One of the cool things about being married […]
I am a proud Geneva College Alumna. I graduated with a BA in writing in 2014 and I am so thankful that I was blessed enough to get my education there. From the time I became aware that colleges were a thing I was always going to go to Geneva, there was never any doubt. […]
So I’m very slowly getting through my novel still, I have about 40 pages to go and I’m just getting to the dragon egg hatching, which makes me nervous because I haven’t looked over the scene since last year and I know there are going to be so many things that I want to change […]
Good Morning, dear friends. It’s a sunny Tuesday morning and I realize that I am, technically, a day late. I thought about writing yesterday, I really did, but having woken up with my husband still in bed and breakfasting and showering and dragging ourselves out to do some shopping, the day went by and I […]
