So I’m downloading them from my desktop wordpress and uploading them here. But I have work stuff to do today, too, so I don’t know when they’ll be back up. I also don’t know how they went missing. My archives are HUGE and tipsy. There’s just no telling what they’ll do next.
I spent the weekend finding places I’d like to submit to this year and reading In Cold Blood for the first time and a bunch of travel stories from an anthology. I’m not a huge fan of crime writing but I figured I shouldn’t let that stop me from reading a classic. I’m more intrigued with Capote himself now, though. Now I want to see the two movies that came out about him. I’d only read his fiction before.
Ok, I have to get to work. Sorry to be so dull!!
I have two kids and a delightfully odd husband, Brett. My children are Noah (born to us in 1997) and Madison (born to her first mom, Pennie, in 2004 and brought to our family through a domestic, open adoption). They are my inspiration and also the reason I don't get more done around here.
I'm a writer and sometimes I get published, which is a nice thing. I write for joy, I write for money and when I'm very lucky, both things happen at the same time. My work appears in national publications including Yoga Journal, Disney's Family.com, Utne, Wondertime, Brain Child and Salon. Currently I am working on a book about my daughter's adoption and seeking representation for the proposal. I also own Smart Cookie Communications with my husband.

Don’t be sorry…it was worth it just to read “My archives are HUGE and tipsy” - see? That is why you are a writer…I had this really funny image of stacked archives teeter-tottering like a half-hazzardly stacked row of books and I couldn’t stop smiling!LOL

Angela, you make me happy! That’s exactly how I meant it but as I typed that I thought, “Is this going to make ANY sense???”

Did you know the comments are tuned off on your six things post? And here I was all itching to tell you about my changing eye color.

The one that’s not ‘Capote’ - I can’t remember its name - is brilliant. (I haven’t seen ‘Capote’, it might be brilliant too.)
