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.

Busy Morning!

By Julia Schmeelk | October 25, 2018

The best laid plans can be derailed at the drop of a hat. We were getting through the morning pill routine, you almost have to be over 50 to get this. I have pills, he has pills, we have pills we take together. Some require food, some don’t, some cause me to use the bathroom every five minutes to drain fluid away from my heart. Yeah pills, we don’t like…
