I hope you'll pop in to see my new blog which will be dedicated to my novel, WHIMSEY.



Just click here



Thanks, everyone!



I'm a lover of words and a lover of images.

The photos you see in the blog posts were mostly shot by me or by husband Donald. Or, they're old family photos - a lovely little benefit of being a part of families who recognized the beauty of preserving our history through photography.

If the photos are not ours, I have tried whenever possible to caption or link the photos to their source. This hasn't always been possible as there are a lot of uncredited images available through the internet.

The photos in the sidebar were not all shot by me or Donald.

Those that we did not shoot are images I'm sharing from Facebook, Tumblr, Google and/or other places.

My sincere thanks to the generosity of so many talented photographers who so graciously share their work for so many of us to enjoy, share and learn from.

IF you see a photo here that is a copyright infringement, please send me an email (barleykw @ appstate dot com) and I'll remove it immediately.

"Oh, Kaye!"  A new monthly feature at Jungle Red
Look for me at Jungle Red the first Sunday of each month. Just click this picture and you will magically arrive in the land of Jungle Red Writers. Eight smart and sassy crime fiction writers dish on writing and life. It's The View. With bodies. - And now, me. As resident commentator, reader, visionary, mystery maven, arbiter, pundit and prognosticator. Kind of like Andy Rooney, 'cept I'm still living

Books Read During 2013

Every year I promise myself I'm going to keep a log of books I'm reading. And I immediately forget. Then I remember again, but only after I've already read a few books, but can't be sure I'll remember them all and so - - can't bring myself to start the list. It's sort of like missing the first 30 minutes of a movie. I just can't watch it if I've missed the beginning. And being the anal ol' soul I am, I can't bring myself to start a list if I can't be sure it's going to be a complete one.

So.

I decided to keep a list during 2010 and found it to be a fun thing. Especially for a compulsive list-maker like myself. You can see my 2010 list here -
http://meanderingsandmuses.blogspot.com/2010/12/books-read-during-2010.html

And, you can see my 2011 list here -
http://www.meanderingsandmuses.com/2011/12/books-read-during-2011.html

And here's my 2012 list - http://www.meanderingsandmuses.com/2013/01/books-read-in-2012.html


AND, because I enjoyed doing it, I'm going to do it again this year.
