Four years ago today I was promoting my books. I either offered a free download or placed them on sale. That seems like a lifetime ago, and it’s certainly not what I’m focused on today. I’m thankful today, like I am every day, to be alive, and for the numerous Read more…
MORGANTOWN, WV—Every time I walk into the state Capitol, I’m in awe. After going through security, I ride the elevator to the third floor. The ceilings are high and ornate, the copper, wood, and marble décor regal. It never fails to amaze me: I’m in the domain of the West Read more…
MORGANTOWN, WV—In the last three weeks, I’ve driven to the West Virginia State Capitol three times. Each time, I delivered a legal motion. Today was trip number three. Today’s motion was for expedited relief, and I asked the West Virginia Supreme Court to stop the defense from taking my home Read more…
MORGANTOWN, WV—Last Friday I drove to Charleston again. To file another motion with the WV Supreme Court. As a back-up measure, after an attorney told me the petition I filed on October 8 may not stop Nate Wolfe from further harming my late husband’s company. On October 2, Monongalia County Read more…
MORGANTOWN, WV—Seeing the words in black and white was not as exciting as I thought it would be. Perhaps that’s because the WV Supreme Court order is more abstract than I expected. Or hoped. When I found the order in my mailbox today, I realized that Culp v. Wolfe is Read more…

MORGANTOWN, WV—How do you spell whistleblower? D-a-l-e-e-n. Two days ago, as Culp v. Wolfe played out in Monongalia County Circuit Court, a sitting judge ordered me to break the law. If I, the executrix of my late husband’s estate, do not sign three documents by Oct. 9 at noon, handing Read more…
I’m resurrecting the GoFundMe I began to save my late husband’s estate, including our home. Since then, due to several attorney errors, and because I have no more money to pay for legal help, I’ve been forced to be pro se. That means I’m representing myself. However, in this case, Read more…
The contrast between defense attorney and client couldn’t have been more stark: His voice boomed. It was by far the loudest in the courtroom. Distinct and certain, everyone seated inside the wood-paneled room could hear him without the need to lean forward, fearful of missing a single syllable. Hers was Read more…
