Hi Reader, You know I live most of my life in the lane of words—sentences, stories, the rhythm of language. It’s my highway, my comfort zone, my well-worn map. But this past year, working with artist Jennifer Faye Colombo has invited me onto an entirely different creative road. Jen came to me for website copy, and together—an hour here, an hour there—we shaped words that felt like brushstrokes: intentional, fluid, grounded in nature and feeling. What delighted me most? Watching her take that language and use it everywhere, including the beautifully designed postcard for her Nature’s Essence exhibit (both sides pulled generously from our work together). But the real twist? While Jen expanded her written voice, I expanded my artistic one. I’ve sat in several of her watercolor sessions, splashing around in new creative territory. And let me tell you—nothing humbles and frees a writer quite like watching color move across paper on its own terms. That’s the magic here: art supports art. Her lane opened space in mine; my lane strengthened hers. Creativity isn’t a single path—it’s a cloverleaf interchange where we merge, cross, circle back, and carry pieces of each other’s work into our own. If you’re craving that kind of expansion—quiet, nourishing, full of color—check out Jen’s watercolor offerings: 👉 jencolombo.com 👉 IG: @jenfayeart 👉 FB: @jenniferfayecolomboart Here’s to traveling in new lanes, together.

Greetings Reader, It’s already the third night of Hanukkah, and Christmas is barreling toward us at full speed! Here in Judi 411 Land, we’re embracing the season and celebrating in every possible way. Despite my last name (Harrington) and my kids’ surname (McLaughlin), we celebrate both Hanukkah and Christmas. I’m also partial to Festivus (because who doesn’t love a sanctioned airing of grievances?), and every New Year’s Day we gather for a big Brazilian family brunch. Point is: this season...
Hi Reader, me again. The end of the year always gets me thinking—what do you want to step into January already done with? Website copy that finally feels right?
