Welcome
Hello, and Welcome to The Moonweavers Press Blog. The idea began at a bi-monthly gathering of writers of a certain age. We each had the opportunity to read pieces we had created. Most chose flash fiction. A few were poets. There is a novelist or three. The overwhelming thought was that we wanted to share our works that have spent so many years waiting for an outlet. Like the moon, our lives have many phases. This is the one we have chosen to shine, full and bright, in the world.
Please enjoy our site, and join us if you dare. There are so many stories that need to be told. This is the place to find a home for your story, poem or piece of fiction that needs to come to life. Come weave your words in this phase of your life.
Thanks so very much, and know that you are welcome among the Moonweavers..

Sadie Diana
If your pet could talk, what would be the first thing it says? “Don’t even ask.” Our adorable little girl is an A-1 star of obedience school. She probably could do a few tricks, but every move she makes is her choice. She is loving , attentive, smart and sweet, but stubborn, or as we…

What’s the best and worst airport you’ve been to? Worst was Dallas/Fort Worth. Horrible!! It’s a lovely airport, but the stop and switch planes was the worst!! Mind you, I have double knee replacements that are 25 years old! I walk but not speed walk, nor do I enjoy steps. Of course my connection was…

Faith in People
What’s a moment when a stranger completely restored your faith in people? There are so many examples of strangers helping strangers. In the case of earthquakes or other disasters, strangers who have also been impacted by the disaster come to help their neighbors. Strangers donate blood and sometimes even organs for the benefit of others…

Amazing Taste
What’s the best local dish you’ve ever eaten while traveling? The most amazing local dish was a second in a multi-course meal at a restaurant high on a hill overlooking Positano, Italy. In view was the rock that the sirens dwelled on as they called to Ulysses and his crew. (Ulysses was strapped to the…

Sadie Diana
uniquely herself Sadie is a beautiful Bichon Frise, aged 7 1/2 years. In human years, she would be about 46. She would be an amazing woman. Playful, beautiful, charming and intelligent. As a puppy, she excelled at obedience training, especially if it involved treats. But as she matured, she came into her own. She will…

Worry
What’s something you used to worry about but don’t anymore? When I was a child, I worried about being able to read. Got that down pat by third grade. Then I think every kid worried about the bomb being dropped on our world. Not so much that we would die, but that we would be…

Traveling
Top Ten places to see again First was Hawaii, then Paris, Rome, London, (Wales!!) Edinburgh, and points between, Bali, Singapore, Malacca, Venice, Florence, Positano, Figline Valdarno (Rome, London and Paris and Versailles twice) and I would do them again, especially Rome. I might have been a gladiator, or emperor in a prior life.

Jasperism
My favorite quote? Old ain’t dead. One’s age has nothing to do with quality of life and the new friends you meet. Attitude is the key. The old adage “you are as old as you feel” is true. Don’t count the numbers of the years. Count the moments of joy and achievement. I started my…

A tip
If you had to give one life-changing tip, what would it be? Don’t worry about what might be. It most likely will not happen. Worry doesn’t change anything. You just wasted moments that could have been happy. There are plenty of events in each life that can cause unhappiness. Don’t add more.

Sailing
What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever? The song “Sailing” by Christopher Cross will forever echo in my mind. The tune uncomplicated, the words are simple. The sentiment is soothing. Peace, fantasy, unbound possibilities are in the simple refrain. ‘Just the wind and a dream to carry me’ on the adventure of…
