Author: Liz McDonald

I am a recov­er­ing pro­fes­sional graphic designer and com­mer­cial illus­tra­tor for­merly known as Mistress Pixel. Quite often I was a house painter. I am always a writer because I am told I am good at it. I like humor, swear­ing, cook­ing, fit­ness, pais­ley, people, horses, dogs and cats. I also love trav­el­ing, hiking, par­ty­ing, live music, Spanish, and my family.

I’ll Be Taking Care Of You Tonight

January 22, 2013January 22, 2013 Liz McDonald

It used to be that when a waitress greeted us with “Hi, my name is Ashley and I’ll be taking care of you tonight.”  I would bristle. Damn! She can tell that I have iron-poor […]

Mistress Pixel’s Word For All Ages

Guns Don’t Kill People, Women Do

December 10, 2012December 10, 2012 Liz McDonald

I just learned that Smith & Wesson is now marketing firearms to the ladies via that shopworn and scantily clad marketing tool known as “pink-washing.” Pink-washing refers to the ubiquitous pink that shows up on […]
