When I was a teenager I spent two summers and a week of winter with a missions organization building houses in Piedras Negras, Mexico, where I met Michael Jarrett, a 30-year-old nomad.
Michael looked ragged, but warm and welcoming.  He could have stepped right out of a sepia- toned photograph. His sandy tone matched his gritty [...]

I loved her–devotedly, singularly, unflinchingly.  She humored me.  She loved another.  She deceived me with her kindness, made me believe I was worth something to her.  But her heart was his, and she married him.

Adelaide was simple, old fashioned.  She wore saddle Oxford shoes and cardigan sweaters.  She cherished both the trinkets and the ideals of times passed:  hand-painted pill boxes, monocles, silver compact mirrors, old books, ceremony, chivalry.  On Saturday, April the fourth, 2008, Adelaide  purchased an antique silver pocket watch, engraved with the initials O.D.D.
Adelaide’s routine was [...]

My mother blindly believed in the traditional religion that had been passed down throughout the generations of her family.  She married a Catholic man, like her, when she was eighteen.  He was harsh to her, and treated her like property of little value.  When he drank, which he never did before they married, she feared [...]

Tomorrow begins a new writing challenge.  Tabi Boyce did this last year, and perhaps in the years previous to that, and invited me to join her this year.  So here’s the deal:  I’ve asked several people to submit photos for the writing challenge.  Each day of March, I will choose one of the photos, write [...]
