Diving Headfirst Into UX Writing

I'm in a constant journey of growth and self-improvement. Aren't we all, right? In this quest, I recently came across the term UX Writing. Ever so curious, I was piqued. What is UX Writing? Can I do it? I'm a writer after all, it seems right up my skill tree and something that should be included in that list of…

My Blogging Hiatus. Am I Still a Writer?

I haven't blogged in ages. It's no secret. If I still have followers who receive these posts, I'm sure they'll be wondering who, what, when, and why they are receiving this. The truth is I've been in somewhat of a writing hiatus. Yeah, what a way to claim to be a writer, right? Hey, it's not that I don't write…

Los piropos más lindos que me han dicho

A nosotras las mujeres nos gustan los piropos, pero a mí (por lo menos) no me gustan los que la mayoría encuentra lindos. Al revés; me gusta cuando me dicen cosas genuinas que probablemente otras personas ni piensan que es un cumplido, pero para mí resultan ser de lo más lindo. "Te queda. Te queda porque va con tu vibra…

Mía

2018-12-5 Hoy me siento drenada. Y claro, se lo puedo achacar a los 40, a los nenes, al trabajo... Pero la realidad es que eso no tiene nada que ver. Eso está todos los días y HOY es que me siento drenada. ¿Por qué? Antes hubiera pasado días sintiéndome confundida y culpable preguntándome por qué, pero HOY no; HOY ya…

Read more about the article Letting Go Is Really About Holding On
Sculpture by my son, Javi. The hand is holding on, but the irony is he had to let go of his dislike of plaster in order to do it and in order to let go of that, he embraced his desire to do well in sculpture class. Go figure!

Letting Go Is Really About Holding On

Everybody is talking about letting go these days. I read about it everywhere. People seem to be obsessed with the notion of "letting go". I understand it completely, but the more I ponder the concept of letting go, the more I realize that in order to let go, you have to do the opposite. First of all, if you need…

Meditation and Spirit Guides

Ok. I wasn't going to write about this because it was a supremely personal experience and there is no need to share it, but then again, maybe it's good to share it, so here goes... I was flipping out. I was having a horribly stressful day and I was obsessing about things that were not helping at all, so I decided…

Time is All We Have

So I wrote a poem about time that I haven't published because I didn't really like it and I realized that I needed to develop the whole time subject better. It seems to me that time is the only actual real thing that exists. And the curious thing about it, is that time comes more or less in equal form…

Resistance is Futile

I've been thinking a lot about resistance lately. What exactly is resistance? Well, in an electrical circuit (yeah, I'm going nerdy, but bear with me), resistance is a material that slows down the flow of the current. Obviously, that's what resistance is in everything: Something that stops the flow. And what happens when there is a lot of resistance? Friction,…

Inclusion Writers – My bad, but not really

When Frances McDormand said "inclusion riders" during her acceptance speech at the #Oscars2018, I could've sworn she said "writers". "Inclusion writers" made so much sense to me I even tweeted it. You see, I'm a writer. And writers are the people who include the characters in their stories. Whether it be a book, short story, screenplay or whatever, the writers…
