I live in St. Louis, MO, but my heart and soul hang out at the beach. I am a multi-genre, award winning writer, and speaker. I am a seasoned pre-k teacher, on line writing instructor, wife, mother, Nana to twelve. Hopefully, something I say will make you smile, further your writing career, or inspire you to write from the heart, too. billin7@yahoo.com. Twitter, @WriterLindaO.

Black and Blue Saturday~
St. Louis is hours away from warm and sunny weather, which means I will be in my glory. Yesterday was the St. Louis Writer's Guild Poetry Throwdown. Catherine Rankovic judged the contest. She wore a suit and heels -way overdressed for our blue collar, blue-jeaned crowd of poets and writers, sometimes blue comic and our black belt martial artist. Compared to Ms. R. we looked like we were ready for a hoedown. Wish someone would have told us she was judging US on appearance and not just our writing. But it was fun. Lots of good poetry and wonderful friends. A way to support the guild on a rainy afternoon.
