2022-03-13 So Much Next Level Going On
It’s been another hot minute, you know I know. But I’ve been attending to other duties as assigned and this week it was all about hanging out with the founder and managing editor of Red Hen Press and the LA Review. It was/is a big deal and personally a fantastic experience. What an opportunity to…

2022-03-06 Actively Avoiding Everything
Yesterday I was able to finish review/copy edits of the galley copy of my chapbook. For the second to last time, presumably. Ball is in the publisher’s court again. Glad to have that off my mind so I can ignore it at least for a little while. Today my goal is to take a shower…

2022-03-05 Questions without Answers: Part 2
Yesterday I was winding my way around the question about why I can’t seem to enjoy life more. Why I put so much pressure on myself for stuff and why I continue to be down about the state of things. But therein lies the problem. The questions are themselves nebulous. It’s about mood and stress…

2022-02-23 So.. What’s New With You?
I know, I know… I missed “Two’s day” It was everywhere, though so I didn’t want to be cliché. That’s a lie. Anyone who knows me knows I’m not afraid of being cliché; I embrace it like bad poetry. 😜 I am sad I missed posting yesterday and having the opportunity to type that date…

2022-02-16 The Newest New Shiny
It seems like I get the most satisfaction when I’m working on a new project that I’m excited about. I get distracted by a new shiny and somehow that becomes my whole goal in life. I forget what was important yesterday… and pour my heart into what’s new. I think that’s only human. Working on…

2022-02-13 The One About Memory and Time. And Rocks… 🪨
I think about time quite a bit, and about memory too. I think about an hourglass glued to the table; the lyric of a song stuck in my mind for a lifetime. I can’t escape the curve of it, the gravity, the sensation of something you can’t really hold on to that’s slipping away. I’ve…
