I received another rejection letter. So instead of crying silently, I am kvetching (Yiddish for complaining) to the world. It is the third event this year I applied to and have been rejected from.

As I travel to study my dream of learning glass blowing I realize that this may be the first time I have embarked on a journey with the life experience to back it up. Years ago I did boot camp and the US Coast Guard. It was one of my most difficult experiences yet it [...]
Writing Dreams and Stephen King
Part of my dream to become a writer of horror and science fiction involves research. We need to read and research authors in our genre to help us become better writers. My latest book is On Writing by Stephen King. On Writing is an autobiography and writing guide that covers King’s experiences as a writer. [...]
How To Keep Positive When Working On A Dream
To all of those younger women in their twenties or early thirties, DON’T GAIN WEIGHT! And if you need to lose it, DO IT NOW! It’s true what they say after you turn 40. It’s a bitch to get off. The last time I tried to lose weight was 3 years ago before I turned [...]
How To Juggle Priorities When Working A Dream
I spent the day teaching in my studio and then came home to spend the evening helping my fifteen year old son with his French video assignment. This week I got a reality check on just how unorganized I can be. Some of those moments included: teaching an extra free hour of painting because I [...]
How To Make Fear A Thing of The Past
Last week I left off with a mention of my husband’s dream. I had asked him what his dream would be if he were a part of this group. You may recall that at the end of my post I said yes, it is relevant and I would explain this week. Well, here it is [...]
What To Do When He Whispers In My Ear
Have you ever met a child that seems wise beyond their years as if they were born with an old soul? I was one of those children. I was the kind of child who could read moods, was always polite, anticipated other people’s needs and decided to skip adolescence since it was a waste of [...]
Do You Like Spring Or Fall in New York
Saturday I enjoyed a fun day at my daughter’s volleyball tournament. Her team is finally coming together and they won first place. It was exciting to watch. I love it when we see our time (and parenting money) pay off. It was the most excitement I’ve felt in months (pretty sad, I know). Isn’t this [...]
How Do I Become A Published Writer
On starting my dream of writing a book – how do I get to the beginning? I feel like am standing before that sign with the map. You know, that one with the giant ‘YOU ARE HERE’ next to the big red arrow pointing to a marked spot. Unfortunately this is the map of my dream and [...]
Who Else Wants A New Era And New Dreams
We open ourselves to dreams, asking for magic and the results are completely unexpected.
I asked for Tibet, India and first I got glass blowing!
How Do You Get Passion For Your Dreams?
We got a little bit of Broadway last weekend. We saw Forever Tango. It was great. I sat there and watched and I wondered…what is it like to have a dream like that? I see the musicians, (who I enjoyed more than the dancers) some of them looking like they’re pushing 70, all playing with [...]
What Everybody Ought To know About Times of Change
The goals I am to achieve by our next 8 women Dream meeting are – 1) get a copy of The Writer’s Market and determine 3 magazines to which I would like to submit stories based on genre and 2) go to a writers club meeting. As it turns out Cath found a meeting coming [...]
