about me
I live in Northern New England, am a transplanted 14th generation Virginian (and yes, I like New England, too).
I write novels, collect rejection slips, dance whenever I can, design sweaters and knit them, and do a lot of alternative lifestyle writing -- specifically about polyamory. (www.polyamorousmisanthrope.com is my column).

I don’t usually discuss something as personal as a dream publicly, but this one I really wanted to share.

I had a quasi-nightmare last night. There was this virus that turned you into this ugly, violent creature (probably inspired by zombie stories, NIght of the Comet, I Am Legend, and the reavers from Firefly). The people that had been turned were mostly big, powerfully built men at first. It was their job to spread this virus to other people. I was in this large building with a huge m... read more
I had something a little weird happen in the gym today — was totally internal, and I couldn’t tell you what prompted it, necessarily.

I was working out very hard and just something inside cracked open emotionally and I just wanted to cry. Not in a bad way, but sort of “release” type crying. I’ve had that happen before, but not from working out alone. Usually it’s dancing or sex or a rather intimate sparring match that will do it (yes, sparring can be a very intimate form of communication).... read more
You know you're not quite used to freelancing yet when you get an email notifying you of a payment from a client and you throw your hands in the air like a ref announcing a touchdown and squeal, "MONEY!"

The flight down was okay. I like flying, but security always feels to me like something out of a dark science fiction movie. Am I the only one who sees things that way, I wonder? So, today we went on the Silver River up about four miles to Silver Spring. The bottom is such an impossible blue you'd think it was dyed. It wasn't. You could see straight down to the bottom to all sorts of fish. The birds were ama... read more 
Apparently there’s a new fad out there — hanging rubber or chrome testicles from a truck’s trailer hitch.

And because it’s (OMGWTFBBQ!) a physcial representation of a body part having something to do with <gasp!> sex, some peabrain in the Commonwealth of Virginia wants to ban them. I think balls for trucks are great! They’re awesome. They’re a big ole danglin’ sign that there’s someone in that truck that is too tacky for me to associate with. I mean, really… Without those swingin’ nu... read more

Time and facts.
Don't push it. If she's okay with you dating, date and enjoy. Don't push anything else. discussion post on Wed, May 14, 2008 - 4:52 AM
Re: my husband's first secondary
(in Polyamory)
It's not a corporate merger! Just meet the woman. You might make a new friend, which will be cool, and if not, that's okay, too. You don't have to be bestest buddies with your husband's partners.
But the opportunity to meet nifty people pro... read more discussion post on Mon, May 12, 2008 - 8:24 AM
Re: my husband's first secondary

That should be "asking for what you WANT" not "asking for what you NEED".
If you say "need" you start getting survival level emotiveness out of a situation that has nothing to do with whether or not you die. discussion post on Sun, May 11, 2008 - 8:19 AM
Re: my husband's first secondary
(in Polyamory)
Well, it's perfectly appropriate to say, "When I am stood up for a date, I often feel unvalued. I would like it if we make a date that it not be changed for less than an emergency, please. I love you and I do want to spend time with you."
