About Me

I really miss the ocean sometimes. Once and while, when it's really foggy and misty outside, I can almost imagine that I smell the sea and the sand. But just once and a while. Most of the time, I'm pretty happy where I'm at, which happens to be Memphis, TN at the moment. Since I've lived all over the United States, I learned at a young age that your happiness has nothing to do with where you are and everything to do with who you are. I am a lot of things: a dancer, a writer, a musician, a people watcher, a friend, a lover, and lots of other things, too. I like to think a lot, sometimes too much, about stuff like the meaning of life, who the heck God is, and whether or not what we do is counting for something beyond this life. I have more questions than I have answers, but I'm learning to be okay with that.

Wondering/Wandering

The past few weeks have been unnerving and challenging, in so many layered ways. I've started to wonder about almost everything, and big stuff too, like whether I ever want a child, why God seems to f...

The definition of insipid is "you suck"

I just had an editor tell me my writing is insipid, which is basically the equivalent of telling an athlete that he is a quadriplegic. (note: insipid means flat, dull, flavorless, lifeless, spiritless...
