Writing Insomniac…

Occurs when there’s so much stuff atop the closet that houses my brain while the realization that I should be writing when nothing seems forthcoming causing sleepless nights, tossing & turning until snippits of conversation, images & flashes of light filters through… If you’re like me, you jump out of bed to place your BIC and ‘write’ for a miracle…
So [...]

Review of Wendy “How Yer Doing?”Williams Show

My first paying job writing online was in 2007 for a celebrity/gossip website out of Las Vegas, Nevada. It took me only a few months between deciding to get serious about my work & trolling for jobs that I landed the gig . A no brainer for me because I’d grown up reading all the gossip mags & became a [...]

One On One With Kai Duc Luong-Filmmaker

C54. Last we talked you were in Paris doing  the video for CHAT-how’d that go?
Kai. Yes, indeed I was in Paris shooting a music video for EMI/Capitol France and an up -and-coming French Band called CHAT (which means CAT in French). She is a talented pianist classically trained @ the Conservatory in Geneva who started [...]

I Know ‘Love’ Poetry…

It’s been a while that’s for sure, since I’ve penned a “for love poem” but I’ve been missing my love of words & have been thinking lately on the possibility of a ‘thang’ and if for no other reason than this, maybe my readers might get a kick out of my prose & glimpse another side of this transitional nurse, [...]

The Endless Possibilities For Writers Who Network…

Ok, so you remember how hesitant I was to join Twitter right? Sure ya do. Anyhow, from where I’m sitting today, it was the best networking move that I could have done, other than visiting writer’s blogs & commenting. Have met some great folks that way as well. However, today has been a great day of [...]

Today’s “Writer” Update…

NOT a writing day, it was a nursing day! Yep. Spent time with the elderly was exhausted and came home to warm bath, napped & checked emails…same in AM. Would think I’d miss out on sitting at my trusted computer & you’d be right, but, there’s also a wealth of information to be had here, [...]

Clara54 Review of Sex & The City-The Movie

I’m somewhat of a ‘yea, that can wait’ sort of person when it comes to flocking to see the latest movie, reading the next bestseller, or rushing out to purchase the newest CD of the next great musician. I suppose when its already been played up repeatedly in the media, friends, family and such. .. AND you listen to ALL of these [...]

Discovering The “Gems” of Forgotten Works…

Let’s see, so far today after digging into just one of many boxes packed full of writings from long ago, I’ve come across 4 short story fiction works/completed… 1, One Act play, 1 forlorn & once rejected book of 50 poems sent out to the only publishing company I felt at the time my poetry deserved, & [...]

A Writers’ Perspective

I took some time out these past days after hearing of Michael Jackson’s untimely death to reflect, mourn & pay homage to the unyielding power of life & death. We say it in passing all the time “Life is short” . “Everybody has to die someday.” All truisms. It’s the reality of human mortality. I am [...]
