First let me say that I already feel that, no matter what I say about this topic, it will be inadequate. (And now I hear a little voice saying, “You certainly will, with that attitude, Little Missy!” And she’s probably right, too, whoever she is.) But it’s really important to me, so I am writing [...]

It really does take a village
Hello! As you may know, I’ve been having a hell of a time posting to this blog on a daily basis. And it’s not that I’m not taking risks daily. There’s just something about the “regularness of daily” posting that some part of me just refuses to do! A week or so ago, though, I [...]
Only how many days left in the year???
Hey, y’all – Several days ago, on Sept. 23rd, to be exact, I posted on Facebook that there were only 100 days left in 2009. Then, I posed the question, “What do you want to make sure happens this year before time runs out?” I also said that I was pondering the question, too, and [...]
Good Girl Gone Gay!
You read that right – and if that’s not a risk, I don’t know what is! http://www.more.com/2039/4518-over-40-and-over-men In case you missed it, the link above is a reposting of my coming out story, as though having it in a national magazine wasn’t enough for me. Apparently, I really like this “be-you-out-loud stuff!” Check it out, [...]
Diving in to the deep end – of blogging!
Although I thought my head was going to explode from all of the great information, I am glad I took the risk yesterday to attend a workshop on blogging, given by Hollis Gillespie, Michael Alvear, and Tessa Horehled. Each of them was an expert that I will turn to again, as I dive even deeper [...]
I did it! Now, what about today?
I am happy to report that I took all of the risks yesterday that I promised you I’d take! It feels really good to have done that, AND, I have moved forward on some important goals! Today, I am going to further hound my friend Alan – until I get him – about getting in [...]
062409 – What’ll be my risk for today? What’ll be yours?
There are so many possibilities for risks I can take today. Some of them probably don’t seem like risks to anyone but me. Things like eating well and going to bed at a decent hour (and putting aside the computer and turning out the light) seem like no-brainers, but alas, for me, they are not. [...]
Rules of the Road – for Creativity and Authenticity (and Spirituality)!
Hi! I am excited to report that we held the first of two “kick-off” calls for my upcoming Artist’s Way Virtual Summer Camp. This is a teleclass that I am co-leading with Marcy Nelson Garrison, of CoachingToys.com. We had lots of folks on the call, and enthusiasm was generated about the full, 12-week class that [...]
Are you crazy or alive?
Yeah, yeah, I know. I haven’t written in a long time. The Critical Parent inside me is having a field day with that. Does yours do that to you? I hope not, because it really sucks! And the interesting thing is that it doesn’t help me post here more often. No! It actually keeps me [...]
