Work Steady Story Salon # 2: A Priest and a Rabbi walk into a bar…

Just wanted to take a moment to pimp out the second episode of a storytelling podcast I edit and help produce for local book publishing company, The Head and the Hand.

Writing Prompt Challenge #1: A Celebration Two Weeks Late

Illustration by Kathleen Foley I am medium height, medium weight with brown eyes and brown hair. I am built from carbon, iron, oxygen and average facts.

There is one undeniable truth that I learned during the recent holidays. No. It is not goodwill towards all. It is not how to deck any halls, and nor is it that seeing family and friends is more important than locking myself away to watch the Dr. Who Christmas special. No. I leave the holiday … Continue reading »

One of My Favorite Songs from 2012: Bottom of the River

  I usually try to go a little bit more depth when I post, but I just wanted to share a favorite of mine from the world of music in 2012. Above is the official music video from Delta Rae- a band that features a very talented woman whose voice should probably belong to someone, … Continue reading »
