"Lorraine never met a controversy she didn't like and is always willing to tell you how she feels about it, political correctness be damned!"

"When you are in Lorraine's orbit it's hard to get away. She is intoxicating, bright, fun and wonderfully unpredictable. Her writing is all of the above plus some."

Let's do an inventory for newcomers, and an update for season's ticket holders, shall we?

The website is now two years old, hence the dust off. The writing career is four, so it's mastered walking and runs full tilt occasionally, though sometimes ends up in a crying heap.

You, my wonderful readers, run the gamut. I've heard from 15-year-olds to ninety-somethings. Many of the rest of you are just trundling along for the ride, carrying the same load. Kids, mortgages, extended family, work, and curve balls - business as usual. I love you even when you hate me - at least you're reading.

Motherlode runs Mondays in the Toronto Star and the Hamilton Spectator, and is posted here later that day. My Wheels column runs on page two in the Toronto Star Wheels section each Saturday, as well as in the Newfoundland Independent. While the Star posts the column to their site on Thursdays, it'll be here each Saturday.

I try to blog every day. Try. Any features I do I'll link there.

Blame It On Lorraine is new - lots of you are writing asking for advice. I have yet to meet a situation I didn't have an opinion about. If you have something others might benefit from, fire your question to the link on that page. I'll never publish anything sent to me personally - don't worry.

And with that, we're off.

Blame It On Lorraine

Lorraine answers your questions with a little wit, a little wisdom, and a lot of honesty. And don't worry - she's screwed up everything at least once, and lived to tell about it.
