On Writing

I suspect that most people, if they think of writers and writing at all, have a vague mental image of Henry David Thoreau sitting with a quill pen at a quaint antique writing desk in an idyllic cabin, pausing every few seconds to look out over the calm waters of Walden Pond, in which are mirrored glorious red-and-gold images of autumn trees. If they take the image a bit farther, they might picture him walking down a dirt country lane in a gentle shower of falling leaves to a village post office… Continue

Not every season in life is pretty. Dealing with pain and having to start your life over again, whether from loss, abuse or divorce, can seem daunting. After surviving an abusive childhood and marriage, which… Continue

Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

Rating: 5/5



Review: This is one of the best trilogies I have ever come across! There's plenty of action, and on-the-edge-of-your-seat suspense. Collins definitely knows how to keep a reader hooked well into the night, and this is absolutely a book you will be happy to lose sleep over. Of course, there is the cliffhanger ending, so be prepared for that.



Book Description: Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games with fellow district tribute Peeta… Continue

A pool of blood was forming at my feet, I had… Continue
