Petty Betty
By

First of all, I don’t have multiple personalities, but we all have different aspects that sometimes seem to fade away over time. Maybe you have had a Petty Betty inside yourself too?

Or is just me? Starting a writing career means ups and downs, highs and lows, and lots of patience. . .like life. You submit emails to literary agents, pieces for publication, and you put yourself out there in your writing. Like waiting for a boy to call you back in high school, it’s nerve-wracking and…
Debunking Self-love
By

It is not dangerous. It is not selfish. You will not get a big head, become a narcissist, and lose all your friends. This does not mean you go out and get pedicures and leave your starving kids at home to fend for themselves. It does mean some relationships change depending on how healthy they…
