Come visit my worlds
2018 is blessed with an abundance of full moons, giving me even more opportunities to set intentions. I like linking these intentions to the lunar phases. It helps remind me of the larger world and universe out there beyond the society of humankind—a tangible world, filled with its own magic. January is a big month... Continue Reading →
I've written in this space about full moons from time to time, reflecting on the meaning some of my ancestors attributed to each one. This year, I'm trying something different. I'm setting an intention at each new moon, starting today! The new moon today will wax into the Cold Moon on January 1 (what an... Continue Reading →
What I'm happy about this week: taking a moment to reflect. There's been so much going on—in my life, in the world. I'm taking a bit of time this week to look forward and look back, take a breath, and then set out on my path again, maybe with a few tweaks in the direction.... Continue Reading →

As much as I enjoyed myself last week and filled my time with happy pursuits, I've built a life that makes me happy to live it every day. Getting back to my routine... Continue Reading →
We're only a day away from the Winter Solstice. This is my favorite astronomical phenomenon to celebrate because I love what it symbolizes. Fresh starts, renewals, and increasing possibilities. More than any other time of year, this is when I can work to reinvent myself—to let go of those aspects of myself that are no... Continue Reading →
What I'm happy about this week: rest. Last year around this time, I made a holiday themed banner for my website. I put my first two published titles in a sleigh being pulled by cute spaceships. And of course, the dragon Bookwyrm was dressed in her festive Santa hat ❤ If I tried to update... Continue Reading →
