Weekword: FLAVOR

Published by Drama Mama under Blogroll,Kids,Life,Monday Muse

It had been a loooooong time since I stopped by one of my favorite Monday Muse sites: Miss Aimee over in Artsyville. While there, I saw she had posted a new weekword: Flavor.  I hear that word and I think of big international festivals with lots of food, music, dancing, and more food from different [...]

Monday Muse is back and sippin’ some MandaJuice!

Published by Drama Mama under Hobbies,Monday Muse,Writing

Well, if I’m going to keep my promise to blog everyday in May, there’s no better excuse than to bring Monday Muse back! I can’t recall how I stumbled across blogger Amanda Del Buono’s website: MandaJuice – Blogging With the Safety Off, but I’m glad I did. Her writing style is open and honest and [...]

Advice from a Muse

One of my beloved Monday Muses, Miss Aimee of Artsyville, recently posted some materials she created for a workshop on lettering she taught at KU. One of the hand-outs she created was a stream of consciousness instructional “lecture” on how to just let go and create. I am totally stealing her words and applying them [...]

Monday Muse and the Hat Lady

Published by Drama Mama under Monday Muse,Recipes

This will probably be my last MM for a month – NaNoWriMo kicks off at the end of the week; and I must devote all my writing time to achieving my insane literary goal. If you know of any great candidates for a future Monday Muse, tell me in the comments section or send me [...]

Stop by and say Hi to Smitty Baby for a Chance to Win!

We said “Hi!” to Smitty Baby a few weeks back when I featured her as a Monday Muse. Meridith was kind enough to drop me a note letting me know she is having a sweet little contest over at her site in which you can win 2 (that’s right, not 1 but 2!) of her [...]

Monday Muse Gets Crafty

I was searching the web for creative Halloween Countdown Calendar ideas when I came across a site I knew would be great for today’s Monday Muse. Crafty Chicks is a collection of women (mostly Mamas, from what I can tell) who have some of the most wonderful ideas for all things crafty. Currently up on [...]

Monday Muse says Hi to Smitty Baby

Thanks to a recent post on the Pioneer Woman (turns out she’s also the idol of today’s Monday Muse) I learned about Smitty Baby…and am jealous I didn’t think of that idea first! Not the crafty clothes and baby items, I’ll gladly ooh and aah and let someone else design and create those things  – [...]

Monday Muse Master

Today’s Monday Muse is a bit different – not because she doesn’t do all the things the rest of us Mama artists struggle to do each day (laundry, parenting, dishes, laundry, creative time!, vacuuming…) but because she’s managed to become insanely successful at her craft and beat the odds in so many ways.  She taught [...]

MIA Monday Muse

I’m skipping Monday Muse this week – my Children’s Theatre Co.  Zip Zap Zing! – is still in its infancy, and started its first fall semester run on classes this afternoon. I was playing the role of multi-tasking maven today to the hilt as I put the finishing touches on the script, double checked all [...]

Monday Muse Mamas

Published by Drama Mama under Monday Muse,Writing

I was so happy when I found this site, after seeing it advertised over at SmartBitches. It’s like an entire site devoted to the Monday Muse concept! Here, from their About page: Being a mom and a writer is hard, and the only other people who know just how hard are other Mama Writers. We [...]
