Monday Musing: Fake It 'Til You Make It
07/23/23 • 15 min
For a summer during my teen years, I taught handicrafts to kids. With my lack of skill, it was a fake it 'til you make it situation.
As always, my musings are 100% true—except for the parts I make up.

Monday Musing: Monstrous Attack
For nearly three years, I’ve started off each week with a written musing—a short story, a recitation of something that happened, an essay, or just a random thought. This week, I thought I would do something different and record it.
An expected encounter during our morning dog walk created a wee bit of excitement, especially since I had some challenge seeing my attacker clearly and couldn’t convince him to go away.
As always, my musings are 100% true—except for the parts I make up—or embellish.
