Ides of Ruby is ...
 

... a metaphor for the center of my soul, where inspiration resides, and, every once in a while, grows into something that can no longer be contained in the imagination — but never on a schedule.

... a place for imaginings that have no other place to call home.

... my blog. There are many like it — but not quite like it — because this one is mine.

... me. I’m Cheresa Clark, an award-winning storyteller and editor of the AP style, a paramour of prose, lover of alliteration and bona-fide word nerd. Fitness fanatic. Prior U.S. Marine. Recovering public affairs officer. Occasionally inspired writer, reporter and blogger.

Being real is good for the soul. Join me.
