Decade

February 25, 2022 //  by Terra Osterling

– Me, November 15, 2010 Those words opened my first blog post. If ever a life had a turning point, for me it was then. That post kicked off a run of publishing a weekly blog post for a full three years. (Count ‘em – that’s 156 consecutive weeks, 156 posts. And they’re all still …

Divining The Key

April 14, 2017 //  by Terra Osterling

This spring marks five years of freelance writing. It was a slow start. I spent those first months reading and researching, while meeting my nephew’s school bus.

Summit Thoughts

November 30, 2016 //  by Terra Osterling

I am not below ground. I am far up above in the sky, on a peak of rock. On the peak of me. Getting here was not guaranteed. Climbing over rocks and logs, feet moving over loose stone, knotty roots, and slick pine needles. A push from behind is needed to surmount a sizeable boulder. …

What have I been doing?

June 5, 2015 //  by Terra Osterling

Has it really been almost five months since my last post? What have I been doing?, you ask. Not writing blog posts, clearly. The short answer is just that I’ve been working: getting new writing work, maintaining recurring projects, and logging off at the end of the week to leave behind the keyboard until Monday …

The Write Stuff

September 23, 2014 //  by Terra Osterling

I don’t remember what it was like to write without a computer. To have to erase, leaving ‘crumbs’, and rewrite. Or, to crumple the page and start over. To cross out and to pencil in a new line squeezed above or snaked down the margin. Do you? I suppose I remember well enough to have …
