After writing for Fortune 150 companies for almost thirty years, Jule Kucera now writes to explore the wild and noble territory of the human heart.

Jule believes:

• In the power of love and truth.

• Who we were doesn't determine who we are or will be.

• Brave isn't a feeling but an action.

• The family that fits us might not be the one we were born into.

• Our bodies and our earth deserve our care.

Jule lives in Cincinnati, Ohio, grateful for her broad community of dear friends and one local lovely little library. To connect with her, visit Jule's website at julekucera.com, or follow her on Instagram @jule.kucera. She'd love to hear from you. ...more

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Write and write some more. If you are a reader, what you write will fall short of your taste, but that's okay because you have written, and once you have written, you know you can do it again and you can make better what you have written. Do experiments! Find out what time of day serves your writing. Find out if it helps or hurts your writing to scan social media or email first. Find out if you are more focused in your drafting if you write in longhand on paper or keystrokes at the keyboard. Write. Keep writing. Find some writer buddies who can encourage you in your writing. Keep writing. As for "aspiring," drop that word and write. If you are writing, you are no longer aspiring. If you are using "aspiring" in reference to being published, don't worry about that right now. Just write. (less)

I’m not lying in a ditch somewhere

Last Sunday I figured you’d figure I was taking a day off. Today, I didn’t even realize it was Sunday until somewhere on I-70 in western Pennsylvania.

This is what happens when I visit my mom. I either can’t think of anything else or, when I do, it doesn’t seem important.

I’d written out my note for last Sunday before I left, planned to type it up Friday evening at the motel, or Saturday afternoon d
