Letter to God: Hell to the No

Hi again God, It’s me. So had a new realization today, well, several really. But one is another childhood memory when I was a newly baptized and then visionized Christian. You know that vision I had when I was 14, the one that saved my actual life AND pretty much immunizes me against any religion […]

Letter to God: Strange Dreams

Dear God, Oh man that salutation sounds funny now. I had the weirdest dream about a few minutes ago, and it’s already fading, so I’m not going to write it down, but sometimes I have these strange, late night dreams – nightmares(?) really. I just had one. And it’s like I won’t be able to […]

Letter to God: Scopes Redux

Hi again, eternal divine being(s) known as God, Okay so here’s the thing about plans. I think we might need to talk, really talk, more often than once a day because obviously this isn’t working. Yesterday while outside enjoying the gorgeous weather I filled up two sides of a blank envelope because I got “inspired” […]

Letter to God: You Had Me at Murder Hornets

Hi again God, I was going to take the rest of the day off, but I keep thinking: you had me at murder hornets. Here’s how I found about the murder hornets from China, as You will recall. First, one friend said something about the murder hornets from China. I told her to stop believing […]

Letter to God: Checking In Again

Hi again Abba/Father, Still not feeling in a super-great place but I’m feeling better today and wanted to write that out along with I am going to try adding prayer and writing these letters to my daily schedule, at least until I get my *regular* job back. Since writing fiction (my original 1:00 task) was […]

Letters to God: Coping

Dear God, Okay, whew, that last letter got really intense. I keep saying I’m going to write about the Eucharist, but I’m thinking maybe not. Right now, I’m trying to … feel human again. Yesterday, I was talking to my friend in New Jersey as you know. It was good to talk to someone of […]

Letter 5: Prayers for the Jewish People

Dear God, Sigh. I’m definitely going to get fired now. Well if I actually had an actual job as opposed to this odd penchant for letters. Well, I do have an actual job whenever the library reopens. I miss my humble yet perfect library job so much right now. I hope none of them ever […]

Letter 4 – It’s an Emergency! To the Library!

Dear God, I am using Buffy the Vampire Slayer humor, so you know this must be serious. I only rely on Buffy humor for a Level 4 or above emergency. Kidding. There are no codes. Our world is in trouble right now. I was going to talk about the Eucharist today – but haha – […]

Letter 3 – Romance

Dear God, I am feeling a good deal better today. Letting go of things I need to let go of, one piece at a time. Anyway, so romance novels. My main problem with romance novels is that I’ve yet to write one that didn’t either feel like peering inside someone else’s private relationship or else […]

Voices 8: Tiamat’s Wrath

I’m titling this post after the latest Expanse book. This post should probably have a Delusions of Grandeur warning, except – nah, not really. Nothing delusional about it. I was going to wait to post all of these in order, but I’m kind of done with the backdoor drama of it all. Ready to move […]
