Sometimes the only way to fix a mistake- is to make it twice.

I write across genres so I see them, more often, as complementary instead of separated by boundaries.

Red Sox fans have been pushed to the brink over the years, but that's how faith grows stronger.

I wrote before I could write. I got my hands on a journal, maybe a hand-me-down; I had three older siblings. My first entries are in the handwriting of the sister closets in age (5 years my senior). She must have gotten tired of my dictations because she gave up and then my blocky scrawl shows up. I wrote plays as a kid mostly.

Genres are just bottles for the various boats. The boats matter to me.

Try to think of writing as a gift - more complexly put: it is the curse and the cure.

The fact is there are many women who nod politely, even agree openly within their male-dominated often highly educated cultures, but vote their own minds.
