Posted on December 20, 2012 by Erica Welch

This year has been a rough one for me, challenging all of these long-held notions I’ve had about what I’ve wanted from my life, notions I didn’t even know I held on to so tightly. As silly as it sounds, … Continue reading →

The Ravages of the Day(s)

Posted on July 9, 2012 by Erica Welch

Maybe May May Be My Month

A Lucky Man

Posted on January 27, 2011 by Erica Welch

I’m reading Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason. I love the Bridget Jones books–Helen Fielding really tapped into something that speaks to me (and a lot of women, I suspect). The thing is, as cringe-worthy as she is, isn’t she … Continue reading →

Posted on December 27, 2010 by Erica Welch
