Happy Birthday, Julia Child…

Julia Child would have been 102 years old today. I can remember watching her on PBS as a child and have always loved her. “People who love to eat are always the best people.” ~Julia Child~

A “real” writer

August 13, 2014 By Deanna Piercy 5 Comments

I received my first check for a freelance writing assignment this week and I’m just a wee bit excited about it. I’ve had things published in the past but this was the first time I got paid for it. I guess that means I really can call myself a writer. Right? Right.  Here’s a picture…
