Living at the Draftville Hotel!

Every poem or story or essay I post here is a draft, and usually a very early draft. I'm still learning how to look at my writing objectively, and when it comes to fixing what's broken or just non-functioning, ...whew. I don't ask for formal critique--that's a lot of work. But if you notice anything you think might help a poem (including, but not limited to spelling and punctuation!), please don't hesitate to mention it. In the comments, that's fine, or drop me a note: ptohlinecalhoun@gmail.com.

A Favorite Quotation & My Response

Your eye is a lamp, lighting up your whole body. If you live wide-eyed in wonder and belief, your body fills up with light.
~~Luke 11:34

"Zoë shines all over with the light of love. Her eyes are always filled with wonder, belief, and understanding!"

It's seldom all about me

I love life, and treasure it each day, because I have come so very close to losing it, more times than I can count! That's not to say that I don't get grumpy, just ask my husband, or any of our three sons: Josh, Matt, and Adam. I consider myself a professional amateur at everything that I do. There is lots of room for improvement, which I spend a lot of time on, but I could not accomplish any of it without a sure and certain faith in God, a funny, eclectically-oriented loving family and an enormous sense of humor.

I live and love by the Grace of God. My wish, my prayer for everyone is enough. . .

You asked for it!


I love life, and treasure it each day, because I have come so very close to losing it, more times than I can count! That's not to say that I don't get grumpy, so I've chosen this photo of me with "Andi" nibbling on my ear. Andi belongs to our son Josh, the eldest of our three sons - the others being Matt and Adam.
I strive to improve in all aspects of my life. Some days I'm more successful than others, in much the same way as my blog says, "some days are cloudier than others." I live and love by the Grace of God. My wish, my prayer for everyone is enough. . .

I partake in. . .

Those who laugh, last!
