April is the Cruelest Month – reprint
This essay was originally published in the Wild River Review, April, 2009. Someone recently contacted me saying they couldn’t find it online, and so I’m reprinting it here. Thank you. Angel, Passy Cemetery (photo by Ron Davis)

Adjusting to the new – scroll vs codex
Will my bookish friends pillory me if I admit I really like the Kindle?

New website
Dear Friends,At long last, I have a new website!!! Oh joy! And, as part of that website, my blogs have also found a new home. I'm merging both blogs into one on the new site, which will be some essays and some book reviews. I hope you'll make the move with me. I do love hearing from you. As well, you can now by my books directly through the website, which will make things considerably easier on those of you who don't happen to live in Canada. Heck, I'll even sign a book for you, if you'd like. And so, please come and see my new digs by clicking here. Thanks so much! Lauren

When you want to give up
There comes a time when every writer wants to give up, to crumple those pages into tight little balls and toss ‘em in the basket, or better yet — burn ‘em. In fact, when I’m teaching I often tell students this in the first class, so they won’t be blindsided when it happens to them. If you happen to be feeling just now like it’s hopeless, like you should just give up those silly dreams of being a Real Writer and get back to something mo
