Okay I may be showing my age here (my kids would agree) but YouTube just constantly surprises me by what you can find there!

newport2newport posted a video clip that was so in sync with how I've been feeling the last two days!! [Quick run look if you haven't already and come back]

Some novels just pour onto the page, but others drip, slowly. I've been fighting and fighting The Brown Shoe Diaries, struggling with every word and it finally occurred to me that as Aiden goes through her losses, I am reliving my own as well.

This may be completed novel #5 for me (with 5 others in various stages) but this is the only one that has true autobiographical elements to it. And there's many of them, let me tell you! No wonder it's taking me 5x as long to write it as I think it should. It hurts!

So, in honor of my mom, and Mel (just because, not like she's old enough to be my mom) I bring you a song from my playlist from The Brown Shoe Diaries, enjoy!
