I felt like I needed to address the farewell of 2023. Despite some other years where I gave it the finger on the 31st, this year gets a thumbs up. Sure, there were challenges that pushed us, but I know that is the process of life. It would be boring if my life were...

After producing two published books, I kind of went flat. I suppose it was a combination of things, but while I had this space to recover from my foot surgery, I reflected on how I could reinvigorate my writing. The creative process has lagged and I have considered...

"Let's rearrange the room." These were my words on Sunday to my spouse. Words that he could have avoided had he just run away like any other spouse would have. It was followed up by "Hear me out" and "I know it sounds crazy". The blank stare. The silence. Yep. I know...

There are those moments where you think you know how something is going to go. Maybe you have been through it before or, perhaps, you are very confident in your ability to adapt. Whatever the thought process, you might have experienced complete and utter shock that...

It's a beautiful morning in the state of Kentucky. The election is over and we can move on to something less offensive like the holidays or Taylor Swift's NFL boyfriend. (I'm not making fun of Taylor Swift. I just want to make that clear because that mob called the...
