Banned
If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? I’m not much for banning words… comes too close to banning books in my mind, for some reason. And there’s a slight problem- just because you ban the word doesn’t mean you ban the actual thing that is that…

A Conversation With Teenage Cristin
What advice would you give to your teenage self? I would tell her to trust her instincts. When your gut is telling you something, there’s a reason for that! And we don’t need to necessarily know what it is! If you feel like something is wrong, don’t do it. Especially don’t do it just to…

Well, That Didn’t Work…
If there were a biography about you, what would the title be? Well, That Didn’t Work… But That Did! I have made my share of mistakes in life. But there are things that have worked. And the mistakes I’ve made are all part of what has made me who I am today. So in a…

At My Age
What were your parents doing at your age? When my parents were in their early 50s, they were doing pretty much the same things I’m doing- working, being active in their activities that they’d put on hold while raising kids, getting involved with hobbies. But something that they were doing that I am not is…
