Three Cute Witches

When I explained to my granddaughters during our outing to McIntosh Lake in Longmont yesterday that the two oldest of them appear in The Claire Saga as full blown witches and the youngest is the most badass alien you could ever hope to meet, all with supernatural powers, in pure McCaffrey fashion, they were thrilled. […]
Two Weeks Out – WTLLM

Okay, two weeks from today, Tuesday, April 16th, Where The Ley Lines Meet drops on all online, major literary distribution outlets – Amazon, B&N, Walmart, Google Books, etc. If you have already placed your order, thank you from the bottom of my soul. I can only assume that you have also read the first four […]
A Day Of Miracles

Yesterday, I watched the impossible happen. . . twice. During the late afternoon (MT) I watched NCSU defeat Duke in the elite 8 bracket of March Madness on CBS. Awesome game. Welcome to the Final Four. Shortly afterwards, this crew of travelers appeared on my doorway. It seems that the death of their dear fur […]
Happy Easter

Today always brings back memories of my childhood. To begin with, it was a day my family all dressed up in our Sunday finest and went off – en masse – to church for High Mass. To see and be seen among the parish faithful. And to get to the Church early enough to grab […]
Home To Casa Claire

It was nice to pull into the driveway yesterday after my rounds – including a trip to town to grab a couple of whip cream topped lattes from Ziggy’s (the young ladies there are as sweet as the whip cream) – and be met by our feral cat, Smokey. I think she felt a little […]
Smokey Gets An Upgrade

Yesterday was a good day right out of the gate. Began with a beautiful moon to feed Claire and Honey under. And the early sunshine that followed was enjoyed by Claire and Honey all over the property. Even Blue grabbed some zzzzzzzzzs under her favorite spot of sunshine. Mittens, a feral Tom who sleeps in […]
More Reasons All Creatives Need A BC

If you happen to be one of the same fine, five readers (Claire’s Theorem) who read my recent post about my childhood frenemy, BC, Every Creative Needs A BC you will understand why I had to scrap the blog I was working on just to give BC a by-line. You see, his text popped up […]
Hurry Spring Weather

What I find most disconcerting with NoCo weather is that this is what 50 degrees back east used to feel like to me. Other than during a subzero stretch this past winter, I haven’t worn a winter jacket, a sweatshirt has been sufficient, I can count the times I’ve worn gloves or a winter cap […]
Appreciating The Neighbors

Woke up this morning to find that one of my Berthoud neighbors, Cathy Burnett, had posted a comment for the first time on one of my older blogs. I’ve had locals from Berthoud and the surrounding towns post reviews about my books on Amazon, but Ms. Burnett is the first neighbor I do not interact […]
