My beautiful friend, with the beautiful smile.
Weighted by fear.
Flattened with worry.
Wanting happiness, but not minding your own.
Keep it simple.
Keep it clear.
Take a long, deep breath.
And another.
Take hold of the thing that gives you power.
That powers your passion.
That fills you with fire.
Be fearless.
You’ll soon find the you that smiles more than once in a while.
And makes you my beautiful friend, with the beautiful smile.

I am a writer, a mother of two girls, Eva (21) and Sophia (19) and wife to one husband, Kurt.
I was mostly a professional writer and editor for 25 years for graphic arts and advertising, for publishers of newspapers, magazines, books, etc.,. Now, I have this blog where I post my creative non-fiction, short stories, a couple of illustrated children's stories and a comedy I wrote about two years I spent teaching English in rural Japan (NOT a story for a child.).
I also have a shop on Etsy called ChannelingNonna where I’m selling the many vintage treasures I’ve collected over the years and continue to hunt down at thrift stores and yard sales.
My husband and I both love to cook and to entertain and have welcomed friends and family to our home for over 20 years, so in 2016, we began hosting with Airbnb as the perfect (and most natural) way for me to continue to pursue my passion of writing, while at the same time help us pay for current and future college expenses.
But the experience has proven to be so much more than financial gain. It has been life-changing in the best ways imaginable.
