Time Travel and Second Chances
So the other day, my six-year-old got this evil/snarky grin on his face and asked to borrow my phone while I was kneeling on the ground playing with the baby. I probably should have known better, but I still handed it over. He switched on the camera and took a picture of something above me, […]
Finding motivation when your heart’s not in it.
I have to admit that it’s sometimes hard to stay motivated. There are months where I feel like I’ve kept up on all of my writing goals, achieved a handful of minor successes, and even improved as a writer. But then there are also months where I feel like I’m a “writer” in the same […]

Don’t Settle
Do you ever feel like you’re just…done? You know, lots of frustrating things at the day job, kids won’t listen to anything you say, baby is fussy, house is messy, shoulder and knee still hurt from the auto thingy, and you just want to, I don’t know, die? Okay, maybe die is a bit extreme. […]
