Another fun prompt from my Wednesday night writing group got me at least writing a little blurb for you all. Hope you enjoy a little piece of my Berlin life. *********** The short denim skirt, blue tank top with an American flag embossed but shabby on the front, and kitten-heeled sandals were proof that she…
Another terrific writing group last night- and again I am posting the short writing I finished during group. I love that I am at least writing and even better- I am meeting cool new people who I will be able to socialize in person with soon too! I hope you enjoy! ********** During six years…

As I thought about the theme for this Kink of the Week, I thought about the many different connotations I could bring to the topic of Exhibition that I learned from my life in Berlin. Many of you have read other posts of mine, and you know that living in Berlin was transformational, and I…

I am sitting in a lovely Italian bistro- a glass of Argentinian Malbec at hand (hey I am in South America- of course, the wine is South American even if the food is Italian!) with my laptop open, writing. This alone feels like a miracle. I haven’t written anything outside of work stuff (and even…
Flying the short distance from Bogota to Medellin, I am reminded once again how incredibly mountainous and empty this country is. The rugged landscape spreads below me partly under the clouds, partly peeking out through them. I have been thinking about the city, the small tienditas, the panaderias, the people sitting outside the drinks shop…
