NOVEL CONCEPTION: October 2012
http://novelconception.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 29, 2012. Confusing Fiction with Autobiography. What does it mean to “write what you know”? Based on some of the submissions I receive, I fear many writers are taking this common piece of writing advice too literally. And so on and so on, and yet, they all wrote what they knew.

A life less ordinary. The wit and wisdom of writer and author Gwen Morrison. October 11, 2010. I have always had dry skin. Never had a single pimple when I was in high school. I was freckled and fair. I never wore sunscreen (who did back in the 70s? And I never used an ounce of face cream. While the other girls spent what seemed like hours coating their faces with layers Cover Girl foundation and powder, I applied my favorite flavor of Maybelline Kissing Potion, added my blue eyshadow and I was good to go.

Adventures of a Writer. A Gift of Love Fan Page. Friday, December 31, 2010. I realized that the road, and especially marathon training, holds invaluable life lessons.

A life less ordinary. The wit and wisdom of writer and author Gwen Morrison. A blast from the past: my favorite toys. July 31, 2010. All the buzz around the newest Pixar release, Toy Story 3. Got me thinking about the toys we had when we were kids. When I told my son Dylan about some of the toys we had “back in the day,” he looked at me like I was the lamest person on earth (again). Here’s a sampling of some of the toys that lined the shelves in our basement. A real blast from the past! Ants in the Pants.
