That's the journey of a writer, long and winding. Ups and downs, rejections, joys, acceptance, laughter, tears, community, and yet a sense of loneliness. The road is bumpy, often full of potholes, and yet it's one we gladly follow, for we are writers and writing is a part of our soul. Join me on my journey.

Happy Veteran's Day
In the U.S., this is the day that we set aside to thank those people who have served in the military for the sacrifices that they made/make for us. Take a moment to think about them today.
I think of all soldiers everywhere. Many of them are fighting without knowing what they are fighting for. They are caught up in events beyond their ken and dying for something they don't believe in but are forced into.
I'm praying especially for our Canadians in Afghanistan and the U.S. soldiers in Iraq. Both went into the area seeking peace and yet are dying. May God protect all husbands, fathers, brothers, sisters, wives, mothers and friends.

My husband's a Viet Nam vet and our Legion had a special affair today. They dedicated a new memorial to all the vets in our area.
