2022-09-15 Sometimes When It Rains, It Pours
Sometimes it’s all dried up, and there’s nothing to say. And sometimes, even though my creative writing is non-existent, the other words are just begging to come out. I guess you could call this post a continuation of the one I finished yesterday. When I was done writing, I believed I had said all I…

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…

2022-03-05 Questions without Answers: Part 2
