Hello! Book Two of my Memory Road Trip series is out, and I’m already working on an outline for my next installment. I have a bunch of rough drafts to go through, and I can tell already what I’m going to keep verses what won’t make the final cut. Following is an excerpt taken fromContinue reading “Matera Memories”

Musings
Life and death ebbs and flows. Nature, man — we are the same. We intertwine. We go way back together. We both have stakes in this planet, this big blue floating ball. How is it that we both ended up here? Why is it natural to feel the need to get away? Is life really thatContinue reading “Musings”

A Random Selection of Words
In honor of my new travel memoir being released last week, I decided to scroll through it until I said “stop” to myself and post whatever words I landed on.

I was wearing my boots that I’ve only worn two times since I bought them four years ago! I rarely have anContinue reading “Winter Wonderland”
Desert Vegetable Garden
I used to want to be an urban farmer. Heck. I just told a lie. I still want to be an urban farmer, but the reality that I live in a desert has finally set in. (Water, Or The Lack Thereof) I always knew that water was a precious resource, but I figured a smallContinue reading “Desert Vegetable Garden”
Western Purgatories
I have a new travel memoir coming out soon. It’s about going places and doing things. Mostly, though, it’s about learning new topics. It’s a very non-fiction-y book for people who like that kind of thing. Everyone goes on and on about how great fiction is. Me? I think the best stories are the onesContinue reading “Western Purgatories”
Stroke
I recently put the finishing touches on my latest travel memoir and had to edit out certain stories that didn’t exactly fit. Most notably, I edited most references to my father’s debilitating stroke. I only kept the briefest mention of his condition and deleted anything beyond the trauma that actually unfolded. The following is anContinue reading “Stroke”
