Getting Stoned with Book Makers
Happy Hump Day Bloglandia! Now, before you think this post is about cannabis legalization, it's not. Sorry to disappoint. However, books do take you to all kinds of worlds of the imagination, so in a way, they are mind-altering. And it turns out, over the next few months, books might be just as tough to … Continue reading Getting Stoned with Book Makers
Going Medieval on Book Thieves
Happy Wednesday Bloglandia! So back in the Long Long Ago Times (aka "pre-pandemic") I used to take these things called "vacations." You may have heard of them. To prepare for these vacations, I would go through several mad rituals such as planning outfits (only to wear the same two things the entire trip), organizing toiletries … Continue reading Going Medieval on Book Thieves
A Stormy Month & A New Toy for Book Nerds

Hello Bloglandia! If you happen to pay any attention to the news (depressing, I know) or to my Instagram account (which no one does), you'll know the Pacific Northwest has angered the sun gods this summer. Apparently we forgot to sacrifice a salmon or a microbrew or whatever it takes to appease King Sol. Temperatures … Continue reading If You Can’t Stand the Heat…Get Out the Humor?
Another Man’s Junk…
Hello Bloglandia! I have a little confession. I like free stuff. I know, I know, who doesn't? I mean, no one's going to turn down a free lamp from Tiffany's, right? But the free stuff I'm talking about isn't exactly treasure. Well, not always. Let me explain... So I walk and run a lot to … Continue reading Another Man’s Junk…
July’s Reading Round-up: Location, Location, Location
Once again, I found myself tumbling into a curious reading theme in July. This time many of the books I picked up had troublesome buildings playing a key role in the story. From the possessed printing office of The Stranger Times to the dark demons haunting Gil's All-Fright Diner to the tragic event outside The Dakota in The Final Days … Continue reading July’s Reading Round-up: Location, Location, Location
“Did You Get the Email!?”
Hello Bloglandia! Bit of an odd (in a weird way) title there, but it was also an odd (in a funny way) phone call when that line was spoken. A little background about parental support regarding my creative endeavors first. My mom has always been super supportive of my writing without being shy to say, … Continue reading “Did You Get the Email!?”
