I may have mentioned this a few hundred times in previous blogs, but occasionally I get sidetracked and start writing for the wrong reasons. I start writing because I feel like I should or “have to” so people keep reading, I don’t lose traction or risk being forgotten as a writer altogether. I sometimes writeContinue reading “Fragmented”

Hurried and Harried Heather
Call me simple. Or mystical. Or just naïve and superstitious. Call me what you want, but regardless, this is how it works. This is how I know what I am supposed to write about—dare I say-what I believe God wants me to write about. I read a smorgasbord of books every day.

“Serenity Now!”-Kramer
Deep breath. Deep breath. Deep breath. I have 2 other blog ideas that I was debating between this morning. I have been stockpiling them from personal experiences over the past week.

OK, So…I have written about 146 blogs since this Leukemia nonsense began. When I was in the hospital or just sitting around my house recovering from chemo and preparing for the next round, I had blog ideas rolling through my head at all times. I couldn’t write fast enough to get them all out ofContinue reading “Soaked”
