Bison Butterfly Blog

Welcome to the re-igniting of my writing life. For the past year I've *thought* a lot about writing. I've squeezed out a few poems, worked on my haiku manuscript (which is on hold till I have the money to pay for my editor to hack away at it), and made a few leather goodies. I have a memoir in the works about my life after the order and a children's book that needs an illustrator. Besides that I've been busy parenting my beloved 1 year old, working full time, and connecting with the village that has formed around me this past year. People I never dreamed would leave my life are gone & others I dreamed awake, have now joined us.

I'm going to talk about parenting & mothering on these pages and just plain life. You're going to read me toggle between using the term "single parent" and "solo parent" and just plain "parent" because I feel like it. Sometimes I'm going to talk about being a single mother, which is another perspective in my eyes, different than a single parent.

I'm an expert on me and us and don't claim to know you or what's best for anyone but us (and that's a mystery sometimes.)

These pages are me giving me an outlet to speak up what I feel, know, see, and strive to understand. I also want to bring life back into this website ~ BisonButterfly was a baby I adored and it's calling me back and asking for more. I hear you BB. 

So we'll see. Together. Where this goes or if anyone (namely me), cares. And from that place of caring, we'll fly.
