All About Me

our tragedies and trials, but somehow, we usually manage to band together and face them with as much strength as possible.

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.

Sometimes that works well, sometimes it doesn’t but it saves me a lot of time with weeding. I only pluck out anything killing one of my desired plants. However searching out beans is harder when the beans…

Expressions

By Julia Schmeelk | July 1, 2018

There are so many expressions that humans make that are noisy but nonverbal. For instance the puffing T sound that means in all sarcasm that you are fighting to suspend all belief. Then there is clearing or clicking in the throat while tossing the head, or turning aside. Plainly that means nobody wants to hear your mouth anymore. The clicking tongue, the hum with lips pressed together, and every teen…
