NewEarth Series - Grabon

All About Me

Evidently I was born, although I do not remember the party. Stories indicate I had a pink carnation in the nursery that I greatly admired. I was one of the lucky ones. I have a wonderful family, filled with curiosity, acceptance and more than our fair share of laughter. We have

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.

How we got to be a target is beyond me, but we are doing our part to lock them outside the gate. If you have any…

It Rained

By Julia Schmeelk | August 16, 2018

All day yesterday we had little spits of water. The birdbath is full, the ground a bit soggy, we even still have a small puddle or two. Best of all, some of the burnt brown is giving way to green shoots. Some of the bushes that still have leaves are looking perkier, not so shriveled and dying. Maybe life will return to the yard before autumn sets in. Some of…
