It's all just sitting there. Taunting me. All of the things I want are staring back at me from where I sit on the couch, trying to make sense of this work I have to do and dreaming about things like painting over nail holes. Is this what I've become? A nail-hole dreamer? Am I so … Continue reading Wake Me Up Next Week

One time, my parents thought it was cute to allow me to abduct myself in New York City. My sister could walk by herself, so I was seven, maybe eight, and we were going to New York for the day, I think to see the Rockettes Christmas Special, which was the first and likely only … Continue reading A Ride Up Memory Escalator

It feels disingenuous to ignore what's going on today as I write this post. But there you are. I am dealing with the realities of the world in which I find myself and am afraid I don't have much time or energy right now to write a decent post. If you're hurting, know we're fighting. … Continue reading Book is On Sale PS The World Is Burning

This week Feeding Frenzy turns one! Happy birthday, small thing I made! In honor of that, it will be on sale starting the 27th through Valentine's Day! I'll mention that again later. It will also be returned to Nook and added to Smashwords, so if you've been waiting to read it, here's your chance! It's been … Continue reading Feeding Frenzy Is Teething!

I learn a lot from seeing the thoughts of others. A lot of the time, it's bitter medicine. It feels like we spend all this time being told we're wonderful the way we are, that we can be anything, but somewhere around our mid-twenties, if you still believe that, you've stopped growing, and will be … Continue reading Near Future, Near Failure

I've been discussing lately what makes something mature. Is it the language? The content? The depth of comprehension? Some unfortunate combination thereof, that, like charisma, you'll either possess or envy forever? Hell if I know. Most days someone says something serious to me and I look around for an adult to come sort it out … Continue reading The Wise and The Profane

Happy New Year!! I am so excited to have the reign of terror called 2016 quit us. Ciao, you sonovabitch, I hope you skin your ankle when the door hits you on the way out. Bring it, 2017. I'm ready to make friends, but if you're not gonna play nice, I'm gonna bite you. 2017's … Continue reading Resolved

  Holidays, man. They've found us. Thanksgiving is my favorite because I just need to remember to show up and stuff my face. Maybe I'm put in charge of a singular food. Like dessert for broken people who dislike pie. My people. And then there's the pageant called The Holidays. Navigating the rituals of various … Continue reading Happy All The Days (And A Gift!)

I saw Rogue One this weekend! I won't spoil anything--it was fun! I hope you get to go see it. I'm not sure 3D was necessary, but it did help hide when I cried, so plan what is best for you. It got me thinking though. We all want to be the soldiers in the … Continue reading This Is A Rebellion

We are in the twelve days of winter festivities range now. You are running out of time! BE STRESSED LIKE ME! Nah, just kidding. If you're stressing about what to give people, may I ask that you consider giving someone some books for Christmas? Two books make a decent gift, and if you buy books from … Continue reading Is It Time for Audio or Just Holidays?
