I have enjoyed writing for several years. When I moved to Alaska in 1982, writing letters home to friends and family, describing my adventures, they all encouraged me to write a book. I want to write that book. I had some amazing adventures in my 33 years living in Alaska.
When I moved to the island of Hawai’i in 2015, I started a wellness adventure which is now the driving force to write a book. I want to be able to share with others my journey from self misdiagnosis through a variety of healing modalities, doctors, treatments, and spiritual work into being cancer free.
In the meantime, to practice my writing skills and learn new techniques I am including a blog called Monday Musings. This was inspired by a creative writing class pre-covid.
In January of 2021 I became a member of the Hay House Writers Community. Through that I found a writers accountability group – HHWG that meets three times a week on zoom. It has really helped me through this amazing process of becoming a writer. Learning from other writers in the trenches has been so very beneficial. I still have a long ways to go on my book, but am feeling very positive about getting it done in 2024.
In December 2022 I self published the “take-aways” in a little book called “Yes to Life, Little Book of Hope”. It is available as a free download. Please share it far and wide if you enjoy it.
July 1, 2023 Update – I have joined a Ultimate Blog Challenge with Paul Taubman with the intention of getting into the habit of writing every day. I have stories I want to tell about my Three Little Kittens and this is a great way to do it. May those of you that find it, enjoy it!!
Mid July, 2023 Pondering Life’s Path is a section of my website where I will “talk story” about the lessons I have and am learning along life’s path. I am understanding things in ways I never have before. I started the Facebook page with this name in January 2014. I have shared other folks posts there, and some of my writings. Things I have pondered. I am now going to post my new writings there, if you are looking for a way to be notified via Facebook when I have a new article. I am not on Facebook as much as I used to be, but I do still have a presence there.
October 1, 2023 Update – I have added a new section to my website called
