All About Me

My husband and I have been together for… let’s say we met in 1983. He is not only my companion and friend, but also the guardian of my imagination. I imagine I am not easy to live with on a regular basis, especially because I am not always present where my feet are, but I also tend to babble and talk to my characters as I am plotting. Yes, he deserves a medal.

For thirty years, I was the teacher in a classroom. It was an experience I would never give up and I hope I made a difference for those students, but underneath the apple crusted desk, I was always a writer, an observer and a student of human behavior and responses. My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

Kindness Spreads

By Julia Schmeelk | September 20, 2018

Ever notice that nobody disputes the spread of negativity, bad attitude, or criminal mischief? That’s because we have all seen it work through a crowd, an office, or a family. It is pervasive and quick to spring up if even one strong root is allowed to grow. The same is true of cheerfulness, happiness, and generosity. In some places these are considered the currency of the weak, the mindless, the…
