I don’t like waffle cones. Not one bit. However, it smells divinely. It’s tempting until I remember the taste. I’m not a big ice cream fan. Admittedly, ice cream can on ocassion lead to belly aches and worse. Oh my. Yet, in the winter I tend to forget […]
From a young age, I’ve been a storyteller. I would perform on stage with my own stories or a Dickens story. Nowadays, everyone is a storyteller in some way or form. From Twitter, to Facebook, to Instagram you are curating a narrative. Those narratives are often short form. […]
