About

(c) Kristin Moore Photography

My name is Abby. I am a full-time copy editor, and, on the side, I am the proprietor at Bluestocking Calligraphy. I also write a dog blog called Doggerel.

I am married to this guy.

This blog is a little experiment in continual word play. That is all.

Abbot Palladius said: The soul that wishes to live according to the will of Christ should either learn faithfully what it does not yet know, or teach openly what it does know. But if, when it can, it desires to do neither of these things, it is afflicted with madness. For the first step away from God is a distaste for learning, and lack of appetite for those things for which the soul hungers when it seeks God.

— The Wisdom of the Desert, ed. Thomas Merton

  1. Abby! I like your blog. You’re a great writer. I’m going to keep coming back to this when I need a fresh burst of inspiration. It was good seeing you last week, albeit briefly. Glad you enjoyed the wedding!

  3. Abby, I hope you still remember who I am.
    I ‘walked’ into your blog some weeks ago and I think it’s great and full of inspiration, so I did a post on my blog about it! I also hope you don’t mind about that (If you do, do let me know)

    Looking forward to reading more from you.

  4. Goodness: dogs, calligraphy, a hunger for learning, walking in the footsteps of Christ, and being a bad housewife in a good marriage. You’re not me, are you?! So happy to find you through Freshly Pressed, and good luck with all your endeavours. :)

  5. I really like your blog! Is there anyway I can contact you about possible review titles. Please email me kenya(dot)walker@us(dot)penguingroup(dot)com
