Bound by Time

At all times I am yours,

for all time you are mines.

The potent glue that seals us;

we are bound by time.

Lost in the moments,

the seconds fly by,

But the memories that exist

are endless, if only in our minds.

Husbands chained to their wives

gladly awaiting death to depart.

Parents attached to their children,

invisible strings tug at their hearts.

But our love is not held

together by vows or by…

Deaf Ear

Hello..?

Hello..!

I know you heard me

walking around here

saying the samething

for the last past five days!

You act like you don't hear me

when I'm talking all softly to you,

now that I'm yelling,

you seem amazed!

Then you start screamming and shouting,

calling me all kind'ah names,

before you start crying!

Baby..?

Baby..!

Don't do that ma, please..

WHAT?

YOU LYING!

Oops! Out of Time.



Today, for reasons I have yet to determine, my late, paternal grandmother weighs heavily upon my already ultra-engaged mind. Malinda Cartwright was a force of nature - a "piece of work" to be sure. This East Texas-born mother of nine, born in 1889, remained mentally sharp, enjoyed near 20-20 vision, and had all but two of her original teeth when she died at at the age of 104. Until the end, she was… Continue

Excerpt from “The Power of 10 Gaining Empowerment in 10 minutes, 10 words, 10 people” by Holly Spence

10 minutes for me? You’re kidding right? I can’t find time to complete all that I need to do on a daily basis and you are suggesting taking 10 minutes for me?

My day starts at 5:30 a.m., as I’m putting in a load of laundry, ironing my clothes, and throwing lunches at the kids so they won’t miss the 7:30 a.m. bus. I grab my purse, briefcase and laptop. Double-check to ensure I have my cell phone, earpiece and keys to the car. I have a fun filled day of conference calls and an over-quota… Continue

Agility: Going With The Flow. . .

Being Self-Employed: Landing on Your Feet



During the 80s there was a very trite social ideology that dominated the then 'working' world: it was known as "Murphy's Law" and it's creed went something like this: "If something can go wrong it will. . . and if something CAN'T go wrong it will!"



For the past 3 weeks our family has been moving from one state to another. Now that of itself may seem to be a daunting task, which it is, however, we were/are fairly close… Continue

Advice on Exploring Erotica in Your Writing

MediaBistro's Morning Media Menu had a conversation with author Jamie Brenner about advice for writers looking to explore this newly crowded genre. An excerpt from Brenner: My first erotic novel came out two years ago. The landscape feels completely different. There is not just the hope to reach a mainstream audience with erotic novel, but the expectation that success is reaching everyone, not just the genre readers. Fifty Shades of Grey really raised the bar for that.
