Blog Posts

I have a lot of thoughts and often have trouble keeping them to myself. Sometimes they get posted on social media, but that's not always the correct forum. I don't always have time to post a lot here, but I can promise that it will always be tied to writing or publishing, and it will always be honest.

I found myself with a little free time after some gardening this morning. The little one was listening to her favorite podcast and Liz was taking a nap.
