I'm halfway through Portrait of a Lady, and I really hope Isabel Archer shit-kicks Madame Merle and Gilbert Osmond.
Also, did a lot of Cracker Barrel crime novels on tape this Thanksgiving break driving to/from Texas.
What is your favorite crime writer or creation?
P.D. James, Agatha Christie, John Grisham, Sherlocke Holmes, Poirot, that old English widow on PBS who gets in everyone's business with young sidekick (who later played hobbit in LOTR), or that other equally old and nosy spinster woman, Miss Marple? Oh, this came on two weeks ago, but it's definitely worth the watch before they take it off the site!

the Anemone Grows
I have just graduated college, opened and closed the door on the Nashville-Music career I always wanted, lost the proximity to my good, dear friends off in other cities while simultaneously growing closer to my own family in Nashville. I have demi-started making roots in the town where I saw my life taking off, but now that my job will not require me to live in Music City, I wonder if it is too soon? Should I go back to school? Follow my friends? Or be close to my family for the rest of my life?
I'm scared to pick up and leave because that would mean I have made a decision about where my life is headed. But maybe this blog will give me the courage I need if that is where I am told to go. I am a fatalist, and I believe everything is for a reason. So yes, I want to believe God gives me signs. Even if it is on the techy godhead internet.
At this point, I am unclear what I want to do with my future, but I have lots of dreams. Dreams in every which direction, and those directions will sprout new inspired directions of dreamy dreams to inscribe on this blog. In very unspecific, romantic terms, I do know this: I want to live a full life the way the "anemone grows." I want to learn, love, foster, educate, create, and make things even more beautiful no matter what they are. I want to be the person responsible for making things good in my life and maybe someone else's too. We will see how that goes.
