Many years, the lull has worried me but after a crazy summer, I’m hopeful for a respite. Plus, it’s given me an opportunity to put [...]

Where I’ve Been, Where I’m Headed

August 2, 2011 by Carolyn Elefant

May 31, 2011 by Carolyn Elefant

Today is my birthday and as a present to myself, I’ve finally relaunched and supplemented the free materials originally posted on drop.io before it abruptly shut down in December (one of the drawbacks of a free service).
