A Kick at the Darkness: Authorial In Tent
http://gerardcollinsblog.blogspot.com/2015/07/authorial-in-tent.html
A Kick at the Darkness. A blog by Gerard Collins. Friday, July 3, 2015. Day 1: It rained. A lot. Since I first wrote this one, just three days ago, I've been in the tent every day at various times, including Canada Day, as the orange full moon was floating above the lake - an indelible image that I'll take with me always. Sitting beside Walden Pond (2014). Last night, I recalled I'd bought a lovely copy of Walden. Walden Pond in modern times (2014). Beside the lake, beneath the trees. A thermos of tea.

Lisa Mac's musings: The Truth Will Out
http://lisamaccoll.blogspot.com/2014/11/the-truth-will-out.html
The ponderings, speculations, rants and observations of a professional writer, work from home mom, crafter, singer and wife. Sunday, November 2, 2014. The Truth Will Out. There's a big controversy in Canada right now over a well-known CBC radio host and his growing number of alleged sexual assaults. I will not waste one column millimetre in acknowledging him. This one is for his victims. My early encounter had a lasting impact on me. I stopped wearing anything even vaguely revealing or form fitting&#...

Where To Read Me. Writing From the Right Side of the Stall. Mucking stalls. Freelance writing. How do they differ? This is a sampling of some of the feature articles I’ve had published in print, and on-line, over the years. These aren’t necessarily my favourites, the ones which have won awards, or even the most contentious examples of my work … they’re just the ones for which I happen to have PDFs. Nonetheless, I hope they give you some small idea of my background and writing style. Admiral honored with ...

For a thousand years | Write From Here
https://suzanneboles.wordpress.com/2015/05/27/for-a-thousand-years
In search of the new normal after loss. For a thousand years. May 27, 2015. I have been at a loss for words for months. But as I approach the second anniversary of Bob’s passing, June 8th, I cry more often, sleep less, feel desperately lonely. After this length of time people drift away. They assume you’re okay. Yes, I am better than I was, but I still struggle every day. I consider myself lucky to have loved, and have been loved, unconditionally. I just wish it had been for a thousand years, or more.

Down the Rabbit Hole: In and Out of Sanity | Write From Here
https://suzanneboles.wordpress.com/2014/11/11/down_the_rabbit_hole
In search of the new normal after loss. Down the Rabbit Hole: In and Out of Sanity. November 11, 2014. If you feel upset reading this feel free to stop. It is my journey, not yours…. Saturday October 18 2014. That night the pain was unbearable. I couldn’t see the light. I could end the pain but if I was gone who would look after the cats? I was trying everything I could do to keep him alive. I knew he was suffering. We can. We took him to the vet. He was a beautiful cat, so loving, and so happy until...
