Got a family member with mental health challenges? This book is for you. As a child, I had no awareness of my sister's bipolar disorder. After her death, finding a collection of her letters has pieced together the puzzle of our lives.

Everyone out here is writing fantasy, horror or romance. I have managed to meet only 4 others who write contemporary fiction. Is this because real life sucks and we need
pure entertainment?

I think it's really interesting that as soon as I posted my blog today admitting that I took medication for anxiety, three subscribers immediately unfollowed me including one close friend ( that hurt).

New topic. This weekend I threw away a whole lifetime of letters from friends, old boyfriends' love letters and photos, 30 years of thank you cards from students. I've decided I cant keep dragging my old life around. Thoughts about holding on to nostalgia?

I don't want to be a Debbie Downer, but why are so many people in the US getting on airplanes right now? Don't they see there's a f*ing pandemic out there? Is turkey with family more important than staying alive?
