————–First, a note: ————————- I’ve been honored to be able to share posts from Guest Authors during the past three weeks. I’d like to continue to share voices of published and aspiring writers, poets, and screenwriters that I’m meeting along my journey. Their posts are always available in the GuestAuthors section of my blog, and for […]
Guest Post by Anne Stormont Like Cathryn, and many of you who read her blog, I too am a writer. I don’t earn my living by writing, but I am a writer. I’m a fifty-something Scot living in Skye. I’ve been married for over thirty years and have two grown up children. I’ve worked as […]
Social media rocks. This is probably the millionth article to start off with that sentence – most likely because it’s true. I’ve been fully involved in social media since last April, when I published my first novel, Sunrise on the Pier. Most of my time is spent conversing on Twitter. Love it, love it, LOVE IT! Endless […]
My original title for this essay was ‘Ruminations From the Parent of a TechnoKid’. Awful title – glad I changed it. The ‘TechnoKid’, or L, is my preteen.

I’m so jazzed, that I’m having fun researching. I’m engaged, plugged in,. So what’s the problem? I’m Tweedicted! So much information – quirky, thought provoking, funny; sometimes […]
I’ve been having fun with some Twitter tags – #girlgeek and #alphageek. I admit I’m a #girlgeek. I’ve not got the ego to claim #alphageek – for myself. But I do claim it for my protagonist in my current novel – and the as yet unnamed female protagonist in Skye Pointe 2 (SP2). They are #alphageekstothemax […]
Do you tweet? Do you follow or are you followed? My tweeting is a solitary affair – just the way I want it. No really – I love it as a private journal. It’s like having little stickies always at hand. I don’t carry a notepad and pen, always at the ready to jot down […]
