Sunday Mutterings
I’m supposed to do something today. Well, rather several somethings, but I’m trying to be brief. It dawned on me that I wrote part one of a three part series back in November and left you all hanging. I do want to finish it, because it’s a fun series (I think) and important. That last…

Zwitterion
I learned a new word in chemistry today, zwitterion. It’s a biomolecule that changes polarity based on pH level in the body, but that’s besides the point. It’s just a really cool word. I haven’t looked up the etymology of it yet, and it doesn’t sound either Greek or Latin, which are the languages I…

Shameless Dabbler
Hat tip to Karen Ahle for the title of today’s post. I really am a shameless dabbler. I’m not an expert in anything, but if asked, I can answer questions on a lot of topics, and have often joked I have a ‘trivial mind’ because I know a little about a lot. I’m interested in…

The Care and Feeding of a Blog
Hat tip to Everitt for the title. I’m writing this after a conversation about blogging, and promoting one’s work, and how to set up a blog to do that. In my opinion, it is a good, low-impact way to market yourself, whether you are an author, artist, or something else altogether. There are a few…

Safely in Ohio
The big move has been made, I am settling into a new home, and looking seriously at local colleges. I spent most of yesterday and today getting my office into something resembling a space I can use, and it’s looking good. The writing is on hold until this coming Monday, when I shall go back…

I Want to Interview You
I wrote a post earlier this week on writers respecting their readers. As I’m thinking about it more, I’d like to interview some readers for my blog. I have a perspective as a writer and a reader, and I talk to writers all the time, but not as much to readers. In the changing world…

How to Court Insanity
I said something yesterday about putting up a snippet of a work in progress, and then said that I would not do the one I’m working on now, because it’s going to be a novel. I felt it was going to take me too long to finish, and I’m not that big a tease… Yesterday,…

Life interferes
There are weeks that I want to write, but just cannot get to it. This looks like it is going to be one of those. I did take the time Monday evening to go do something fun, went to a concert and took my Dad with me. I can’t remember the last time I went…

To Blog or not to Blog
A friend asked me recently about websites, setting them up, design, and “Where do I start?” I wrote a long email in response, and then realized it might be helpful to others, too. This is just a beginning, and I am not a coder. That means that I can fudge a little HTML if I…
