I hate technology
I had written this lovely blog about dreams and the essays of E. B. White, and how change is a good thing even if we can't stop it from happening, or control it, but . . . But I pressed the wrong buttons. I press control 's' to save my writing all the time. I'm sort of paranoid about loosing pages once it gets too big, or too pretty. So I tried to save but control 's' is not save on the blog. It publishes. Now, if I'd realized when everything starting to whirl and do stuff what was… Read More

Things that are happening.
I realize not everyone reads the board or belongs to our mail list. So I am going to try posting this here and see how everyone likes it. If not, I won't do it again! Darla DUCKS ------------------------------------------------------------- Clicks the gaming store (across from the theatre) in Crestwood Plaza on Watson Road in St. Louis is now selling our Jean-Claude's Tub Toy Duck for $10. If they go over well, they will offer them in their South County Store too! So if you get a chance drop in and get a duck. We are trying to talk them into… Read More

Riddle me this
Riddle me this Batman. How is it that I did twenty pages on Sunday and felt great. I did twenty pages on Monday and felt great afterwards. But I did only ten pages yesterday and I felt like crap afterwards. I was so freaking tired. It's not the amount of pages, but sometimes what's in those pages. Some stuff is simply more energizing, or more exhausting than others. I know that intellectually, but in a stubborn part of my brain is still this idea that it shouldn't matter. That pages are pages are pages. Another riddle for you. Why… Read More

Of hermit crabs and children’s books
Darla just told me she had an e-mail from someone wanting to know if Bluebell the Hermit Crab had survived. No. Bluebell didn't make it. Trinity took it very well. Part of that wellness, I think, is having seven hermit crabs left. We now have an isolation tank set up for molting crabs with it's own heat source, damp sand, water and high calcium food. Bluebell was our first crab to molt and I think it caught us all by surprise. Actually, we thought Gabrielle, our biggest crab, had eaten her. But apparently all Gabrielle ate was Bluebell's shed… Read More

Bad Moods and Togetherness
I'm wearing dark charcoal grey lipstick. A black t-shirt that says, "You're just jealous because the voices talk to me." I'ved added a touch of mascara and called it done. I'm not feeling the least bit Disney today. It's all Goth except I'm not willing to do boots or heels. It's too damned early for uncomfortable shoes, so the jogging shoes break the Goth rule of always trying to look cool, or at least dark. The shoes are white. If the Goth fashion police catch me today I'll get a ticket. I'm in one of those bad moods that… Read More

My…well…two cents worth
Hi! It is Darla. I just wanted to toss in my thanks on the events! Give a little reminder, correct a bit of misinformation and give a heads up on a unhappy albeit necessary change. First, thanks so much to everybody who trekked out. Your patience is amazing and appreciated. Especially the signifigant others and children who were so well behaved their parents should get them a treat! We know it was a long night and wait for most everyone. It was nice to chat with so many folks and hear how you came to the series. Though the… Read More

The morning after
Hey, everybody. We had the second signing for Cerulean Sins last night. It went well. It was great seeing everyone who came out. Two nights in a row when I got to bed after midnight, and I'm beat. We estimated I signed somewhere around a thousand books last night. No wonder my arm wasn't happy by the end of the evening. Somedays I think I should learn to write with both hands, so I can switch off, but then I wonder, what if both arms start to hurt? Oh, well. Thanks again to everyone who shared their time with… Read More
