Glamorous Redneck: Marsha, Marsha, Marsha!
http://glamorousredneck.blogspot.com/2008/10/marsha-marsha-marsha.html
Wednesday, October 15, 2008. Marsha, Marsha, Marsha! It occurred to me the other day that I am sort of like the middle child here at school. Too young to fit in with the real "Non-traditionals" and too old to fit in with the whipper-snappers that are more concerned with where their next party is than "am I going to be getting myself any financial aid AT ALL next year? On the plus side, though, I've yet to fall again! Most awesomest book. EVER! My teachers blame that whole silence thing on this part of th...

Glamorous Redneck: January 2009
http://glamorousredneck.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 22, 2009. The benefits of having a virtual diary. August 24, 2004 Someday I'm gonna go back to school. I know it shouldn't bother me because I've got a really great job that only improves the longer I'm there, but it really just irks me that I don't have a college degree. I loved school! I needed to see this today. The past couple of days have been not-so-stellar. Right now, I am killing time in between a major meltdown (thank GOD for girlfriends! I think itβs almost better becaus...

Typewritten Teacup: April 2006
http://typewrittenteacup.blogspot.com/2006_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 08, 2006. It's nice to know you're not alone in your feelings. Writing is easy: all you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.". This is where I've been lately. I've been busting my ass on a poem I'm to read at the wedding of two dear friends and trying like hell to get Freelancer. Moving. The Fowler quote really applies. Writing is easy - writing well is sometimes impossible. Posted by Sharon @ 9:45 PM. Brooklyn, New York, United States.

Typewritten Teacup: March 2006
http://typewrittenteacup.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 10, 2006. In a rather delightful turn, two blogs have posted marvelous essays this week that I'd like to note here. Nick Mamatas, a writer whom I know through Jessica, in his posted this bit of Swift-ian brilliance. This week and I nearly pulled a muscle laughing. While the essay in and of itself is completely on-point and hillarious, I am extremely grateful to him for this paragraph, which I'm tempted to turn into a wall-hanging and keep it near my computer:.

Typewritten Teacup: July 2009
http://typewrittenteacup.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 10, 2009. Have you seen your stapler? I inherited a few items from my Uncle Charlie. His 1930's vintage bedroom furniture (bought when it was new), some binoculars, many photographs, and a stapler. There's probably more than that, along with a large sheaf of memories, but right now, I'm only thinking about the stapler. Why just leave it all in one pile, without distinction? Seems like a waste to me. As much of a waste as writing several paragraphs about a stapler, I guess. Live from New York.

Typewritten Teacup: October 2006
http://typewrittenteacup.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 17, 2006. Great Moments in Journalism. Back in yonder days when I was a wide-eyed student of journalism, convinced I could become the next Jancee Dunn or Joan Didion, I spent hours trying to perfect my turn of phrase. It didn't matter if I were writing for a journalism class or the. I still wanted my writing to be good enough to capture the attention of my reader. I wanted to make them laugh, or cry, or hell, even pay attention (it was a college paper I was writing for, after all). Anoth...

Saturday, July 29, 2006. A touch of class. I don't give a damn about my bad reputation, apparently. By Shrunk and White (or even a good game of computer solitaire, in some cases). My experience has been dismal, so I'm largely self-taught. I can name about 5 writing teachers, since the time I was first able to put a story together, who I can say have had a positive impact on my craft, whom I genuinely respect to this day, and whom I am entirely grateful to. They're talking about you. Thanks), and the ones...

Wednesday, January 18, 2006. Tell me a story. I started to get more serious about my writing in 2005. I'm currently at work on two novels, one entitled Best and Brightest. The other entitled Freelancer. With the help of my intrepid Write Club (more on them another time)I've committed to doing this writing thing for real. 2006 will be the year that I try my damndest to get my work noticed and my name out there. After all, sometimes the best way to tell a story is to make it up as you go along.

Typewritten Teacup: September 2006
http://typewrittenteacup.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 22, 2006. Links and a report. I haven't really written all that much lately. While I have the major elements of Freelancer. Plotted and planned out, getting the next chapter going has been something I haven't had the mind for lately - either due to a lack of time or a lack of ideas, I'm not sure. I have been keeping myself busy, though. I've found some new blogs to entertain myself with:. Similar to this blog, and is written by my fantastically creative friend Jill. Has been doing in he...

Monday, September 17, 2007. Guess what, kids? Back in July, the brain trust at Marie Claire. This is what I sent:. Dear Ms. Coles:. I have been an avid reader (and paying subscriber) of Marie Claire. Since the magazine's redesign. I often recommend this title to friends, many of whom were looking for new reading material after the demise of Jane.
