    Book Review: Thirty-Two Going on Spinster

    April 18, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Thirty-Two Going on Spinster by Becky Monson Genre: comedy, romance, contemporary Publisher: CreateSpace Date: December 2012 Julia Dorning is pretty convinced she’s a spinster. And if she’s not, she’s going to be. At the ripe old age of thirty-two, she’s not married and she lives with her parents. Even though that’s not technically in the dictionary definition, it still sounds pretty close to it. Oh and she has a cat, too. So that’s just another check mark in that ‘spinster’ column, right? But how do you shift gears in your life at this point? Can you even do that? Julia’s been living rent free for years so she has a…

    Our Culture of Shame

    March 30, 2017 / 0 Comments

    I hate conflict. I really do. During the election season, I kept my head down and refused to engage in any sort of debate. I even begged out of a bunch of conversations when people would tag me and ask for my opinion. I really, really hate it. (And I’m married to a man who thrives on debate. How did that happen? *smh*)  So it’s not often that I share my opinions on hot topics or potentially controversial subjects. But this morning I woke up to a flurry of messages on Facebook about something I had posted yesterday and I have to admit that I was absolutely stunned by it.…

    Subscription Box Review: Harrison Blake Apparel

    March 9, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Hello everyone! Are you all still here? It’s been a bit quiet on my end of things and I apologize for that. For those who don’t know, I spent some time in the hospital at the beginning of February and ended up having two emergency surgeries. So that’s put me behind on a few things! Thankfully I’m coming back around and digging out of that hole so you don’t need to worry that I’m going away anytime soon! Unfortunately, a few things got behind while I was recovering and the review of this fabulous subscription box was one of them. So my deepest apologies to Harrison Blake Apparel  for being later…

    My Thoughts on The Shack

    March 3, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Unless you have been under a rock, you’ve likely heard about the movie, The Shack. Open confession here: I haven’t read the book. That usually makes most people gasp and freak out when I say it. I read books professionally, so it’s just assumed that I read this one. When I was invited to this early screening (thank you KSLR, The Fish San Antonio and my friend Audra!) I was able to step in and watch without any preconceived notions. But I will admit here that I was freaked out a little. My newsfeed on Facebook these days doesn’t look too awfully different than it did during the election. Instead…

    Some thoughts on the #Oscars…

    February 27, 2017 / 0 Comments

    As many of you know, I work in the entertainment industry. For about 12 years, I’ve been blessed to work with everything from television networks to small indie films and box office powerhouses. I don’t claim to know everything,  understand everything or even come close to being at the level of the people honored last night by the Academy. Everything here is just my opinion so take it with whatever size piece of salt you feel necessary. 🙂 I love stories. I always have. From even before the time I could read, I remember cuddling up in corners with books and building stories to go with the pictures. Many of…

    Review: The Orphan’s Tale by Pam Jenoff

    February 21, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Title:  The Orphan’s Tale Author: Pam Jenoff Genre: historical Publisher: MIRA Date:  February 21, 2017 Sixteen year old Noa had a life that was serviceable. It wasn’t anyone’s dream life but she had a roof over her head and parents who met her needs – for the most part. That all changed when she revealed to her folks that she was going to have a baby. Not only that, the father was a Nazi. Thrown out with no possibility of returning home, she had to make her way in the world when things were already impossibly hard for everyone. She thought she had a plan for her life when she found a home…
