In case you’ve wondered what’s been going on, I’ve moved all my blogging to Broadsheet360. It’s become too tricky to manage two blogs, a magazine and work on the new mystery series. Thanks for spending all these years with me. I hope you’ll check out Broadsheet360.

Just in time for the holidays

It’s been a busy few months with a slew of writing projects. From working on the new mystery, to launching Broadsheet360, diving in at Caregiver Village, and finally the re-release of Underneath the Ash my fingers and keyboard have had a hearty workout. As I’m sure is evident by lack of posts here, I’ve been brainstorming [...]
Times they are a changing

As you’ve likely noticed my blog has sat neglected for the past few months. While I apologize for the brief hiatus, I promise there are new and interesting projects brewing. In June, I’ll be leaving my position at the Alzheimer’s Association to pursue a full time career in writing. Working for the Association not only led to professional [...]
A note of thanks

It’s been just a little over a month since the release of Underneath the Ash. The experience has been a mix of emotions and I suspect, as with so many things in life, I won’t fully be able to comprehend my tangled thoughts until I have some distance. So, for the moment I’d simply like to [...]

When I first started writing about my experience becoming a mother while losing my mother to young onset Alzheimer’s, I never intended to write a book. But, here we are today with the release of Underneath the Ash. The process of writing was cathartic, painful, and transforming. I’m so thankful to my incredible family who willingly [...]

So forget my last post. Trips to Europe be damned! Luke’s back-to-school tale will now be “I caught a fish THIS big!” And, he even has picture proof. But on to other news…my blog is just one of many things that has sat neglected while enjoying this near-perfect Pacific Northwest summer. It’s been an unusual summer in [...]

Writing, writing, and more writing

I’ve been remiss in any writing updates as of late so here’s one big ol’ purge: First, the Vancouver Voice, where I write my column Couv’ Connections, is venturing into subscriptions. Now instead of grabbing a copy of the Voice at your favorite coffee shop, it will arrive nicely bundled in your mailbox for a [...]
Okay before I dive into this post I’ll readily admit that I love a good plan. That’s not to say that I can’t succumb to my free-spirited Gemini tendencies either. But, ask my friends and family–they’ll lament over the fact that I email them early in July to confirm holiday plans. They’ve deemed these moments ”planning [...]
