Hi, I´m Joey
It’s my hope that this website, which I founded in 2009, will become a regular source of inspiration, encouragement and comfort for you. We’re old friends here, and I’ve got stories to tell (and things to share). So grab a cuppa (or a glass) and stay a while.
While blogging is how I started my out-loud writing career, my debut novel, Yeah, maybe was released in 2014 and became an amazon bestseller. See more novels from me under “books.”

>> I think sometimes I trust youtube too much. I really enjoy daily vlogs (when I have the time to watch them), but I do still watch a few beauty gurus (I hate that word, fyi). Ingrid (you know, missglamorazzi) did an All Things Hair video a while back featuring the Suave...
Real Time
Hi friends! This post is coming at you in real time because...well...life. I don't know how you people do it. Full time jobs, families, houses to take care of, and yet you still knock the blogging game out of the park. By the time I sit down at the end of the day, I'm...

YOU SHOULD READ MY BOOKS
For the deep feeler, the over-thinker & the one who’s trying to figure out where they fit.
I write for the ones who feel like they’re too much and not enough all at the same time. For the ones navigating big questions about identity, self-worth, relationships, and those in-between life moments no one really prepares you for.
My stories offer a mix of comfort and catharsis—like a late-night journal entry or a favorite nostalgic playlist. If you love Taylor Swift lyrics, soft heartbreak, and hopeful endings, you just might find a piece of yourself in these pages.
