    What being “Liberal” means to me.

    Being a liberal to me (Democrat for USA and Labour for UK) means I believe in fairness and equality for everyone. After learning a great deal about ancient northern Europeans and ancient British (in the larger sense of the group of islands) in particular as part of the research on my books “Boudicca: Britain’s Queen of the Iceni” and “Mary Queen of the Scots” I really came to appreciate how completely different our ancestors’ cultures were from their conquerors.

    The Human Touch: Thoughts about the Teachings of Esther/Abraham Hicks

    I am really into the Law of Attraction.  I believe in and the power that our thoughts make on our reality and what comes to us. One of the best known lecturers on The Law of Attraction is Esther Hicks who is allegedly channeling a group of beings collectively known as “Abraham.”  While the advice given is generally sound, I do confess a certain unease at the whole channeling thing; it smacks of a scam, especially given there are books, DVDs, CDs, cruises, seminars, and so for

    Reblog: Make Momentum Your Friend

    The latest from Abraham Hicks is all about momentum. Make Momentum Your Friend Thinking British is the surest way to become British. “When something really matters a lot, it tends to get really an inordinate amount of your attention. And when it´s moving into the direction you don´t want it to move, than that inordinate attention increases the momentum. And the thing that is so confounding about it, to you, that thing that makes you feel that disgust and rage, is – a part of

    Mid-night musing: I watch in horror at human complacency

    In Star Wars episode I, Anakin Skywalker said, “The problem with this universe is that no one helps anyone.” He was right. Instead of treating everyone else as “surplus population” we need to understand that there is abundance all around us. We only need to come together, to care about each other, to help one another instead of judging people to find it. When I was a child, we did a little play called “stone soup” about a traveler who tricks a community full of people only co

    A Lack of Empathy Increased Self-Reliance at the Expense of Social-consciousness

    A Lack of Empathy Increased Self-Reliance at the Expense of Social-consciousness It’s a mental health epidemic. It’s a change in how people conduct themselves socially. It’s been worsening every year since the 1980s. It has created enormous misery in our society. It is…our increasing lack of empathy for other people, our inability to “walk in another’s shoes.” Declining empathy is one of those social subjects we all seem to be aware of on some level-yet rarely understand enou

    The following is re-blogged from http://writersrelief.com/blog/2014/05/write-characters-people-care-about/ Princess Anyu from Laurel A. Rockefeller’s Peers of Beinan series “In a previous article, we explored five ways to make your characters more three-dimensional. Once your characters are believable as living, breathing individuals, the next step is to make readers care about them.
