Does anyone else get tired of all the letters to the editor in a “certain romance publication” about how offensive today’s books are becoming? Too graphic, too mouthy… and oh man, the complaints about the use of the F- word. (And that’s exactly how it’s referenced, so we’ll carry it on here for giggles.)
A few of [...]

Sometimes, this world is a bit hard, eh? I’ve been steadily growing sick of all the political and religious arguing. My husband is addicted to hours of nightly news and I’ve been slipping in earphones to block it. My son’s school is having a carnival and I’m in charge of our room’s booth, so I’m [...]

I just watched a woolly mammoth in a swirly bra get a wax job.
And that wasn’t the worst of it.
I’m kind of sad for the human race right now.
People will do anything to get on television.
I actually have none right now. Too speechless here.

Look at all those nice people washing their hands. It’s good to wash hands. Years ago, really smart scientists discovered that it helped to stop the spread of germs.

I’ll warn you. This is a Seriously Snarky post because today, I went to Wally World. Not my favorite place, but it was close and I had a [...]

Oh, I’m feeling snarky!
Yes, we live in the middle of cattle country. Yes, steak seems to be the preferred food in most restaurants here. But there are plenty of vegetarians who live here as well. While I’m not, I do prefer vegetarian food most of the time.
Last year, a friend came with us to lunch [...]

I’m upset. Too upset to post in a polite, articulate manner.
Bloglines people will have read my evil ranting, but I decided to turn it into a phantom post so now it’s gone.
I’ll be back to my “write” self soon…

Agh! I’ve written four posts today but my laptop doesn’t have the juice to work the pages and my Internet isn’t working properly.
The desktop crashed. Yes, the one I was so happy about in December. In short, the 150 bucks I paid for in home service was nothing but a line of BS from a [...]

Yes, it’s been a long time since the Snark was Snarky. I’m feeling snarky. Big time. Today, I’m not taking it out on defenseless T-shirts and coffee mugs. (g)
Earlier this week, I posted about feeling a little sad.
I’m amazed that people took this personally. I never once mentioned Christians. I wasn’t talking about any particular [...]

You know, I’m not sure I should use the title of this blog. My store is called the Write Snark for obvious reasons– mouthy things for writers. Started it because I like wearing this stuff myself. It’s good not to spend time worrying what you’re gonna wear. That way, you can just jump right into [...]

So, last night my sisters and their families came over. We were having a nice barbecue. I have this thick layer of trees and tall brush around my property for the wildness of it–which I love, but also for privacy. But we can still see bits of a car when it passes.
Some idiot threw a [...]

A new blogging friend of mine, Suki, posts these wonderfully fun things called Biblioscopes on the 23rd Mandalation . She picks a book and chooses passages to represent signs. You guys should check them out. Look what mine said this month. The part in italics is the part of the book she landed on for [...]
