Chasing Waterfalls

While the Cat’s Away…
The president of the company left to go out of town today. He and a coworker have gone down to a job site for a day and then the president is meeting up with his wife somewhere down in the States to spend the rest of the week.
The president is nice and […]

I got my first critique tonight, and I must say, I survived it quite well.
Well, all right - not my first critique ever. Obviously, I’ve had lots of ‘em on papers and work and general other stuff, but my first critique on The Book. In fact, my first critique on something I really, really […]

Well, another weekend is almost over. It’s really getting hard to leave my nanny’s house now that I’m entertaining the idea of moving there if I get a book deal and a big enough advance to quit my day job. Sigh.
We rented “Mona Lisa Smile” for last night - I’ve been wanting to see it […]

There’s a new entry up in the journal. I could really use some advice, so go check it out! You can comment either here or in the journal’s guestbook. I’ll appreciate all the words of wisdom I can get!!

Have you noticed how, lately, networks just like to mess people up? They must have very empty lives indeed, for I can almost hear them cackling when they decide to switch the days and times for popular shows every year at mid-season.
There are a few shows of mine that are on brief hiatuses… AGAIN. […]

I have no idea who the author of this poem is - it was forwarded to me by email from a friend. But it was powerful enough for me not to merely forward it on (since forwards are often ignored by people). Instead, I decided to post it here:
My name is Sarah, I am but […]
