So I have to apologize to some of you for basically turning into a soft porn writer. But it turns out there are people who actually look forward to Fridays over here. So how can I say no to that? Anyway, this is Part Seven of a story I’m working on for our Fearless [...]
This is Part Six of a story I’m working on for our Fearless Fiction Femmes Fatales group. If you want to catch up, here’s Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four and Part Five. Just to catch everybody up: Peter and Jen are married with two kids and living in Reno. What Jen doesn't know is that Peter had [...]
This is Part Five of a story I’m working on for our Fearless Fiction Femmes Fatales group. If you want to catch up, here’s Part One, Part Two, Part Three and Part Four. Just to jog everybody's memories on the names (since even my husband can't keep them straight): Eric and Peter were together 22 years ago on [...]
This is Part Four of a story I'm working on for our Fearless Fiction Femmes Fatales group. If you want to catch up, here's Part One, Part Two, and Part Three. Don't get too far behind -- the cool kids may not like you anymore... ******** "This is definitely going to be one of those snapshot moments." [...]
This is Part Three of a story I'm working on for our Fearless Fiction Femmes Fatales group (our name keeps getting longer and more exciting). If you want to catch up, here's Part One and Part Two. You can also read my first stab at "fiction" that was more like me working through PTSD since [...]

Their neighborhood coffee shop was crowded, and Jason looked around, remembering there might be someone he knew within earshot. Not necessarily the ideal setting [...]

I'm not sure how I got myself into this, but some "friends" (and I use that term loosely because, honestly, what kind of real friends would subject me to this kind of pain), have included me in a weekly fiction writing group. Seriously though, I'm honored and touched to be part of this. These are [...]
So I'm coming down from watching the first night of the Democratic National Convention. Newt (the 9-year-old) and I should definitely get an invite in 2016 because we can yell like nobody's business. We get that from my mother -- you should've heard her during football games... Just a few weeks ago, my husband, Tenzin, [...]
Dearest Worst Moms,So it's been a crazy week. First of all, we've somehow been nominated for Best Mom Blog at Hot 99.5 in Washington D.C. (you can vote for us here and that would be swell). This is all, in a word, awesome! But completely crazy.And second, I have some big news (maybe not bigger than the [...]
