On The Dark.
SnapDragon originally posted this on Wise & Shine, formerly known as Pointless Overthinking. . . . I’m afraid of the dark. Like, for real. And it’s not because I think there are trolls in the basement, or Civil War ghosts in the attic. (But—ahem—now that I’ve revived that thought, I might crawl into bed even earlier tonight.)…

Just Another Day in Paradise, Yo. . . . Hi. How are you, Dear Reader? How do you feel today: body, mind, and soul? Pause. Think. Answer honestly. Me? I’m doing just fine, thanks. I’m currently sitting on our RV love seat, clicking past the miles somewhere between Ohio and Indiana. Sweet Baby Snap is…

500 and Counting, Yo.
Woah! Maybe Snap’s got something to say after all? (she shrugs and smiles) . . . Hey hey hey! I got notified by the WordPress fairies that I have over 500 followers! I feel like a cool kid! Like the belle of the ball! Like. . . the world is my friggin’ oyster, yo! (whispers:…

Unpeeled.
Hi. . . . Hello there, Dear Reader. Whoever and wherever you are, love. How magical it is that we’re meeting here in cyberspace. Complete strangers, living our little lives. Perhaps we’re a continent or two apart. Or maybe we’re neighbors unbeknownst. Yet we’re in each other’s homes, in each other’s lives. Here. Now. And…

A short critique of Meg Elison’s Big Girl and other works Hooray! Snap actually finished a book! (smiles contentedly) And I am very pleased with this one! In fact, I think I’ve found a new writer to love! Which, of course, means more books to add to my ever-growing list. But so be it. ‘Cuz…

The Re-Eval.
Good morning, sweet ones. I’m sneaking in a quiet moment, as Baby Snap is upstairs snuggling with Papa. (Or, more likely, kicking him in the face with his adorable baby feet.) I left the “ambient ocean sounds” playing here in the kitchen, because, well, I like it. Anyway, as I’ve been on break for the…

Ball Dropped, Yo.
Umm, how is it the end of May already? Woah. Normally I would be excited to draft up the latest Book-of-the-Month post, but, um. . . Snap dropped the ball, yo. I know! (she shrinks away in shame, like a vampire repulsed by the sun) For whatever reason, I could not finish a book this…

Kindred Spirits.
It’s Book-of-the-Month Day, yo! A short critique of L.M. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables Good morning, Dear Reader! As usual, I intend to keep this review short and sweet. Very sweet. Because that is exactly how I would describe this absolutely lovely piece of literature. . . . I’m not really sure how this one…

The Italian Stallion.
SnapDragon dishes on her favorite film series. Desert Island Pick #1. Have I ever told you that I’m a huge Rocky fan? Well I bloody-well am. Yep. I’ve never hit a punching bag in my life, but this series called out to me from the first time I saw it on my parents’ wooden-framed television…
