Hello!

Blogging publicly since 2003, my blog is a time capsule that has seen me through high school graduation, college, marriage, parenting, and now, midlife. Every life stage has been rife with new material and new lessons to learn. My writing is known for my tongue-in-cheek humor and deeply personal reflections. My favorite comments from readers are, “I felt that way too! I thought I was the only one.”

I was a freelance human-interest writer for Richardson Living Magazine, capturing the lives of interesting neighbors. I currently serve as the Membership Chair for the Writers Guild of Texas, where I regularly participate in the critique group and shock them with my eloquent use of the f-word.

My only claim to fame is that Kate Coyne, former editorial director for People Magazine, once tweeted that I am a “new-gen Anne Lamott.”
