P is for Polar Bear: My A to Z Wish List

By:

I wish I could go see the polar bears in Churchill, Manitoba in Northern Canada. There was an article in our local paper this weekend by someone who’d made the trip, so I’ve been thinking about it again. Churchill has been on my bucket list forever, but it’s a very expensive adventure. I’ve always had …Read More

N is for N.: My A to Z Wish List

By:

This may be the most easily satisfied wish on my A to Z list, because I wish I had a copy of Stephen King’s N. which was published early in 2011. I’m way behind on all of my reading, and I already have a supply of unread King novels in my bookcase, but the synopsis …Read More

By:

Some of my wishes are small ones and some are big ones, but this one is gigantic. I wish one of my books, published or unpublished, would make it to the big screen.

By:

K is for Kayak: My A to Z Wish List

By:

I wish I was brave enough to venture out on a lake in a kayak. I have a friend who’s just as old as I am who isn’t afraid, and she handles herself and the kayak just fine. What am I afraid of? Mostly that I’ll get caught in the darned thing, it will flip …Read More

J is for Journal: My A to Z Wish List

By:

I wish I had consistently kept journals over the years…and never thrown one away. My history is in bits and pieces, some stashed in files containing handwritten letters, some in notebooks, a little bit in bad poetry and essays. During some part of my childhood I kept a diary. I have no idea what happened …Read More

I is for Ice Cream: My A to Z Wish List

By:

I wish ice cream was the most healthy food in the universe, more healthy even than fruits and vegetables. It’s not an accident that many of my wishes have to do with food. I grew up on a farm where we worked hard and were able to eat a lot without getting fat. Most of …Read More
