EVOCATIONS - Tips, Trails & Puppy Dog Tails
I'm a podcaster!!! My next and third book A CLEFT IN THE WORLD doesn't launch until spring of 2023 (!) Yes, publishing moves at the speed of tectonic plates. So, finding myself between work projects, I thought developing my own writerly podcast would be a per…
EVOCATIONS - Squirrels & Interviews & Books, Oh My!
If you are in a book club, why not suggest IN ROBIN'S NEST or GEORGIE GIRL to your group? I love talking with people about my work, and there are pithy book club questions/ topics for discussion for both books on my website!
EVOCATIONS - Book it!
I wrote this so fast today, the first person to find a mistake or typo gets a complimentary signed copy of GEORGIE GIRL to give as a gift (because of course all my subscribers, already have the book, right?) XO

EVOCATIONS - Providence & Fruit Flies
It is as elusive as the fleet of fruit flies that stowed away in our Trader Joe's bags. I blame the peaches. The dryer is either buried in a box in the cave or over at the storage unit. It's better to air dry your hair anyway and in the heat and humidity, my …
EVOCATIONS - It's been a pack fest
I got my post-surgical cast off yesterday--yippie skippy! Scratching what the plaster cocoon was covering is just delicious! I'm now in a removable, plastic, and velcro splint for another month. So ready for complete healing and independence! I have book sign…
EVOCATIONS - A Dud Firecracker
this week for our move to Greenville SC on Friday, July 16. The house looks as though someone pulled out a giant drawer of miscellany and flipped it over. We signed the closing documents today, so the deed is done! I know my hand is healing because it's begun…
EVOCATIONS - BIG OOOPS!
Okay, I'm pretty mortified, friends. I composed the newsletter way too late last night and have no idea what happened to the content. Maybe by next week, I'll remember what I said and tell you again! The H in Preparation H stood for house, btw. No, we don't h…
EVOCATIONS - Preparation H
EVOCATIONS- What a WHALE of a week it's been
In between books, I'm still pursuing and catching podcast opportunities. This Friday, I'll be the on-air guest of Marc Miller, host of the Repurpose Your Career/Career Pivot show, talking with him about my midstream career change from teaching to writing at t…
EVOCATIONS - What David Bowie Song?
Dear friends,What a crazy but exciting time it is! Hope your summer is going "swimmingly" so far. My father was a notorious punster and sometimes I can't help myself. I love words and playing with them is THE BEST! By the way, what kind of vegetable does a je…
EVOCATIONS - Driveways & Droughtlander
Podcasts sell books, says my marketing consultant and everyone else in the publishing biz. Weekly, I research, listen to, and pitch to podcasters in the fields of writing, books, creativity, or midlife. This week, I've been granted two opportunities to be a g…
EVOCATIONS - Bathing Your Brain
*One podcast seemed great with regard to content, but as I listened, the gal let loose a fusillade of conversational f-bombs; sometimes one syllable, sometimes two, and even a triple. I could picture the hyphens! LOL. I never knew there was so much diversity …
EVOCATIONS - Army crawling through muck
If I can do it at my age, anyone can! Here's the piece I wrote for the DIY MFA (do-it-yourself master of fine arts) blog last week.
EVOCATIONS - Baffled by Beach Books?
I'm writing an article for Gabriella Pereira's podcast/blog DIY MFA (https://diymfa.com/) on how I built my freelance side hustle, Four Eyes Editorial.A piece I wrote for the Baylor School (Chattanooga) Alumni Magazine will be published this month. I describe…
EVOCATIONS - Gotta get your own worm
I have a bevy of wonderful coffee cups. I choose my mug based on how I'm feeling or what particular tasks lie ahead of me that day. If it involves a writing or publishing task, Make It Happen is the one. On a day I need a boost of aesthetic beauty, the floral…
