Okay, I have to write about this.....

Earlier today, I was thinking what it must be like to be the journalist that has to write about Paris Hiltons stay in the slammer. First of all you have to be creative, becuase let's face it - there's a reason prison isn't dubbed as the happiest place on earth. Becuase of all the creative... Sign in to see full entry.

Who Is Right?

Yesterday, during an uberslow period at work, I started cruising the message boards at MSN. There was a huge debate about the Rosie - Elizabeth feud on "The View". Some people were calling Rose an idiot, others were calling Elizabeth an idiot. At another board a few months earlier, I encountered a... Sign in to see full entry.

MySpace Blogs

You'll have to forgive me. I am super rusty. Wow. I can't belive it's been so long since I last posted on here. Call it a sabbatical if you will.... I don't know how many of you are myspacers, but here is a complete and total oxymoron to me. On myspace you can literally, unless it's set to private,... Sign in to see full entry.

Don't Think

Those of you that are curious to know where I've been, what I've been up to, what planet I've been on (okay, maybe not that, I've still been on earth), check out Tiger's Lair where I have a report on my new adorable and cuddly kittens (FINALLY!) One of the things that has been going in my life... Sign in to see full entry.

I am tied up in such a quandry right now with respect to my latest novel. I'm still working to git'er done and today I came across a new idea. In order to understand said novel, there has to be background information for the reader to understand why she's doing what she's doing (the entire novel is... Sign in to see full entry.

A Teacher's Advice?

When I was in grade school, I had more than one teacher say "Dont' worry about making it perfect." In retrospect they probably said that all the time becuase they wanted their students to get that extra piece of grammar practice in once they split their class for "group work." Today I learned that.... Sign in to see full entry.

A 2x4 Worth Sharing

Tigerprincess is a good name for me becuase I tend to act like a cat at times. The bigger the cat is the more stubborn they are, and the less you can tell them what to do. On second thought, you can never tell a cat waht to do. My parent's cat, Sheba, is proof of that. Anyways, this past month has... Sign in to see full entry.

Write like nobody's watching

Sometimes you hear "Dance like nobody's watching" which is the only time I do dance. Except when my husband's home. He's used to seeing me act like a dork so me leaping across our living room is nothing new to him. Recently I realized how important it is to wrtie like nobody's watching. A friend of...

Time to Escape

I notice that for me, the time I don't write is when I'm under stress (like now. You can catch the full scoop in Tigers Lair). The higher level the stress, the more my tendancy is not to write, but to overindulge, be it chocolate (mmmm), or extralong sessions of Sims on the Playstation, or anything...

Just Like Acting

My first role ever (as some of you may already know) was as Lady Capulet in a jr.high production of Romeo and Juliet. I was a natural at projecting. One of my talents to this day is being incredibly loud (and at some very inappropriate times to my chagrin). Blocking was no sweat for me.Really... Sign in to see full entry.
