I just wrapped up an insanely busy Thanksgiving weekend. I am exhausted, but am reminded of how much I have to be thankful for. With everything going on I sometimes lose sight of how good things really are and what is most important and Thanksgiving is a good reminder. I really like the holiday. It [...]
I want to thank everyone who took time on a Tuesday night to be a part of my first ever book signing. I really had no idea what to expect but the event actually turned out to be a lot of fun. I was slightly intimidated when I saw the layout after being directed [...]
Help me come up with contest ideas and win a signed copy of my book and a unique bookmark . . . I was just informed that the books my publisher sends me are in transit and due to arrive any day. I already have homes for a few of them with people who helped me along the [...]

I let my satellite radio subscription die. I’m not really sure why because it’s not that expensive. I regret my decision. There are ads on satellite radio but there are also loads of channels so it’s easy to jump from one to the next and avoid ads. I’m not a big fan of all the [...]
