Helen Cassidy Page: Biography

For anyone interested in badass little old ladies. Okay, I’m not as old as the Painted Ladies of San Francisco. But close. I used to live behind them, and now, when I slap on some powder and lipstick, I can call myself a painted lady. Some people call me a…

Are You Missing the Point About The Shawn Warner Story?

Hint: It’s not about selling books. — Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past week, you’ve heard about Shawn Warner, author of the young adult murder mystery novel Leigh Howard and the Ghosts of Simmons-Pierce Manor, who shot up to the top of Amazon’s best-seller charts, simply for looking glum while trying to sell…

When humanity ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

In case you’ve forgotten. — Seventy-eight years ago, humanity ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. When President Truman gave the order to greenlight the Manhattan Project after President Roosevelt’s death, he possibly saved my brother’s life. Jack was serving on a submarine in the Pacific at the time, and without the bombs, it’s estimated that Japan would have continued to fight the war, not to victory; they knew they couldn’t win…

Prompt Yourself To More Productive Writing

Do you play with your food? Try playing with your writing. — If you think Mama and Dada were your first attempts at language, it’s because you can’t remember your first few days of life. If you could recall recognizing the faces of your caregivers checking on your comfort, the joy when saw a sibling replace a teething ring in your mouth…

Your Writing Practice Isn’t A Warmup

Make every word you write publishable. My lesson from an early job interview. — Just because we call it a writing practice doesn’t mean you can’t publish your daily writing.

Can You Love Someone You’ve Never Met?

Let me tell you about Sean Duffy and Carol Lennox — Okay, so Sean Duffy isn’t a real person. But that doesn’t mean I didn’t need grief counseling when I came to the end of Adrian McGinty’s series about the Catholic policeman’s run-ins with the IRA during the ’80s Troubles in Northern Ireland.

Writing Block? Check Your Blood Pressure

Unless you’re so old you’ve forgotten where you put it — Let’s set the record straight. I might be qualified to take your teddy bear’s temperature, but just because I once worked for a doctor, that doesn’t give me the right to dispense medical advice. But I’ll still tell you how I cured my writing block. Talking about my medical condition is one of the unintended consequences of getting old. …

Drowning, Not Waving

What does it take to save a drowning man? In the ongoing rich man-poor man, down to the bottom of the sea saga of the Titan, many have reminded us that if only, oh, if ONLY, our attention had not been cruelly diverted to the frivolous escapade of five heedless…

I Don’t Have A Best Friend.

I have something better. — I don’t have a best friend. But don’t weep for me, Argentina. All my friends are my best friends. Let me meander for a minute, and I’ll explain. This notion came to me last night because I was forced into bingeing a social experiment masked as a TV show, or…
