The picture that almost didn't happen.
I've written about it before. But I love it when you plan for something and you get something unexpected - something better - instead. Our big dance recital was this weekend, and I like to take pictures of her and her BFF. This year the wind was blowing hard from the north. And there were peo...

Sweeter.
It seems hard to return to normal life after such a sad event in Boston. I don't know what it's like to lose someone that way. But I know what it's like to fear it for just a second. And because I can think of no other words, this is... Continue reading

It Wasn't Supposed to Snow.
I find it ironic that it was a snow day in late February when I got word that my short story, It Wasn't Supposed to Snow, was accepted by Literary Orphans. As a foot of snow fell silently outside cancelling local schools and businesses, I kept reading the email over and over: "If it's still av...
Thanks so much for reading Laine!

Please tell me you're going to show the inside of that journal. It looks divine! PS I'm not far from you - waving from Baldwin City :)

sister is showing off her culinary prowess
On the way back from Palm Springs this am we stopped for breakfast at a diner that we are certain only comes to life every so many years when just the right people drive by. It had THE most delightful cast of characters. Quirky, friendly, not the sort you encounter on just any regular day. The pe...
Oh it's so easy! It's not a dip pen, so you can buy cartridges of ink. Or you can use a converter that holds whatever ink you want to use. You draw the ink up through the nib and then just write like it's a regular pen. But you're right, it somehow feels more special.

A Year of Writing
Here's what a year of writing looks like: 10 notebooks, 3/4 of a bottle of Noodler's ink and approximately 400,000 words (250/page, 160 pages a notebook, 10 notebooks). I bought a Lamy Safari fountain pen early in the year and was curious how long it would last. (And no, I did not buy it jus...

Sending love.
Today's the sort of day that requires extra prettiness. Feeling sad for all of those suffering in Connecticut.
Sending love.

a teeny tiny announcement.
Thank you so much Carrie! That really means a lot.

Burn this.
Kenny and I stood on sidewalks and watched their black shadows: two little ears sticking up from a round body and long flowing skirts and scarves. One small and round, one tall and slender. They held out their orange pumpkin buckets. Sometimes we could just barely hear, "Trick or treat!" or "Tha...

Oh my gosh. Do you know how much I needed to hear this right now? To all that stuff that kept me up worrying last night, I just whispered, "Fake problem," while sitting at my computer. Thank you so much for a change in perspective.

further thoughts on choose.
This year, more than any other year, I have made an effort to keep my one little word at the front of my mind. It's been a big year, but different than I expected when I chose "choose." And this little word has pushed me and tested me more than I thought it would. In a really good way. The b...
October Country
Maybe because October is in its name, but this song makes me think of smoky afternoons and burning leaves: It makes me think of gypsy fires and foggy mornings and anything else haunted and mysterious that seems to linger this time of year. Ray Bradbury said it best in The... Continue reading
