My father was a real misogynist, bless his soul. He could make Alan Jones* look like a women’s liberationist. There’s no other way to put it except to say that he hated me and tried everything in his power to destroy me mentally and emotionally. One of the ways he controlled me was through my [...]

Got Writers Block?
Sometimes we’re stuck for ideas. We simply can’t think of a thing to write. Luckily, I don’t have a problem with this. Mine is the opposite. I have too many ideas and get overwhelmed easily. But, I do have blocks though on other things like dealing with paperwork, going to the gym and ironing. When [...]

At first I wasn’t fazed, but as it happened with such monotonous [...]
The Jean Lawler Story
