Beating the Clock
OK, so it never works. Almost never. Beating the clock, I mean. Try as I might, there are usually too many things to
do to get everything finished on time. However, I do consider this Fall Issue to be on time and I hope you enjoy it.
More and more, I'd like to have other people write things so it's not the "Yolanda Show" from beginning to end. So please,
please let me know if you have something you'd like to submit, even if it's a recipe, or a bizarre shopping list. In general,
people's thoughts are interesting to me.
Also, if you're wondering what I've been up to, and have a minute, visit www.aboveandbeyondmedia.com. It's my newest venture. Perhaps you know of a business in need of our services.

Falling
I'm thrilled that summer is almost over. That is a first! In the past, the end of the summer felt like a sort of death
to me. But since Vinnie, who is 5, will start full-day kindergarten at Deane-Porter School in Rumson, and Julia, 3, will take
Vinnie's place at Meadowflower Nursery School in Fair Haven, fall means FREEDOM!
The fall issue is coming shortly. Until then, much love to all!

My name is Yolanda Navarra Fleming. I am a 37-year-old writer, mother, wife,
musician, dreamer, monster, creator, destroyer, humorist, lover, and so much more.
Consider this a virtual sliver of my mind, a visit to my experiences of late,
my thoughts, work and concerns as they exist in my corner of reality.
For years, I've kept journals to record whatever was taking me over at
the moment (i.e. poetry, short stories, rants, recipes, etc.). This year, I stopped because I've grown tired of
creating, thinking and yes, even ranting, in isolation. Now, I'm ready to share.
So let me begin to unravel portions of my work, some framenting at this
very moment, others new and fresh, to demonstrate where I've been and perhaps even where I'm headed.
Eventually, I'd love others to contribute on a quarterly basis. No limits. No
expectations. Whatever strikes the fancy and enlightens the heart will do. Until then, enjoy me as I have enjoyed you.
