Euphemisms & the Power of Words A2Z Challenge April 2012
I love words. Obviously, or I wouldn’t be a writer or a blogger. But this goes beyond merely definitions and synonyms and finding the most poetic way to phrase a love letter. What I love about words, more than anything, is their power. The power to persuade, the power to hurt, the power to heal, […]

Compact Discs – Blogging from A to Z Challenge April 2012
Compact Discs are the shizzle! The first Compact Disc I ever purchased was the self-titled 1989 album Bad English, because I loved (still love) the song “When I See You Smile”.
