Worthwhile Reads in 2010 part 1
I read a lot of books in 2010 (NOT as much as Michelle Sutton, but still A LOT for me!) Most of them were read on the elliptical, some of them before I drifted off to sleep, but this year I was surprised at how many really good books I had stacked up in my…
A Season of Waiting…
It’s been quiet here at Portrait of a Writer…Interrupted. Life has been busy, and well, frankly, I haven’t had much to say. Nothing profound or extraordinary has been happening in my writing or home life. Nothing that has any significance to my readers, anyway. In the quiet I’ve been waiting. Wondering. Wandering and praying for…

Sometimes You Just Need Rest
Not sure where this blog is headed or where I’m going. Just not sure about much of anything anymore. Posting over here has dwindled to almost nothing, though life is busy. I’m still homeschooling and driving kids to play practice. Still struggling and questioning how long it’s going to take to reach the promised land.…

Fair Time…Can't Touch This…
I guess now that life is slowing down (LOL!) I have a moment or two (I should be homeschooling) where I can post some thoughts and pics. To be honest (and when am I not) I do most of my blurbing on Facebook, even twitter has gone to the wayside now that I use my…
