First, let me say that Dolly Parton is the poster woman for plastic surgery done well. Her face is so smooth and unlined, her eyes so bright and wide-open, her mouth so...
The things you can learn in New York City! Today at the Novelists, Inc. conference, I attended a dynamite presentation on author development -- a topic I'd never been...
First things first. According to someone with too much time on their hands, this is the readability level of this blog: I'm not insulted by this rating and I hope none...
Greetings from New York City where I'm currently attending the Novelists, Inc. Conference and having a fantastic time! In one day, while hanging out with my dear friend...
It's official. I've become one of those whiny Florida residents who complain when the temperature drops below 70 degrees. Tuesday, a cold front blew in -- and I do...
I'm not feeling the show tonight, dawgs. To quote Randy, it wasn't the worst, but I didn't love it. Maybe it's the depressing thought that when the songs they sang...
Even without sunshine this morning, various shades stretched across the sky. Milky white, pearl, pewter, gun metal gray. It was almost as interesting to...
Today's the first day of spring. Unlike most of the rest of the country, down in the Keys we don't have a lot of traditional signs that come around or start appearing to...
My friends and I went out to dinner tonight at this little restaurant that's very low-key, almost hidden away, but which serves outstanding meals. I'm replete with French...
For the second time in the last few months, I'm teaching myself how to use a computer-based program for a work-related project. Previously, I needed to make a Power Point...
In a perfect world, weekends would be reserved for relaxing. There's an inherent contradiction in that statement. Why should we have to make an appointment with...
Down here in the Florida Keys, it's almost impossible to get lost. Trust me. I have the world's worst sense of direction. If there's a way to get lost, I'll...
Tonight, the competition really begins for me. That's because I'm in a friendly AI pool and we started making picks tonight. Think Fantasy Football -- with singers....
Three years and 847 blog posts ago, I launched Postcards in Paradise. Since that time, we've discussed just about everything under the Florida Keys sun and beyond. It's...
Debate has bounced around parts of the blogosphere for awhile over whether blog interest is waning overall and what blog readers like and don't like as far as topics. Since I...
Don't know why, but this past week has drained me physically and mentally. Maybe it's the hormones, or the new food plan or that earlier mentioned, fabricated planetary...
I want to create a new category for AI -- Contestants Who Don't Have a Prayer of Winning AI, But Who Should Have Great Careers Anyway. I have two candidates for the...
Call it planetary misalignment. Maybe someone configured the week's numerology forecast in base eight. Perhaps everybody got up on the wrong side of the bed and...
Who doesn't have a bad habit, or two, three, four, a dozen, they'd like to break? That's the topic this week over at Babes in Bookland. Please join me, Rhonda Pollero...
I'm living proof that it is indeed possible to be fat and still qualify as a picky eater. There are numerous foods that I detest and refuse to consider letting anywhere...
I know that these days, maintaining a healthy suspicion is the key to self-preservation in a lot of cases. That awareness keeps us from walking alone down dark city...
Tonight could down in history as the first night that Paula and Simon didn't disagree. That's more odd than any hairstyle Sanjaya concocted last season. Overall, I think...
The show has gotten so repetitive, it's almost boring. I'm not sure what they can do to shake it up. Let Simon comment first so Paula doesn't interrupt? Make...
