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.”
For when you’re craving renewal
“But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” Isaiah 40:31 Burn out is real. When we rely a little too much on ourselves and put entirely too much...
My Strange Addiction
When we were first married, I bought a $20 waffle iron at someplace like dollar general or big lots. It was just a random decision fueled by some kind of thought like Oh, we're married now. We should own a waffle iron. Apparently these are the thoughts that go through my mind. One...
The Breakdown…
So I had an emotional breakdown on Thursday. I can laugh about it now, but y'all. I try to give you a pretty basic idea of what it's like to be a football wife. And I honestly do my very best to be as supportive as possible (and I think I do an okay job at that). But it is...
Favorite Fall Polishes!
**If you know me at all, you know I hate halloween. So I'm choosing to ignore it completely.** **Happy 30th Birthday to the sweet Lauren** I thought since we're about to dive into much cooler temperatures (thank you, NC, for allowing Fall to finally arrive) that it would be a great time to...
Stuff & Things 10/30
>>Whenever I find a new (to me) youtuber, I fall down a rabbit hole of zero productivity. How I've managed to accomplish anything (never mind everything) since having found Colleen & Josh, I'll never know. I'm obsessed, and it's a real problem. They're just so friggin'...
HI, I'M JOEY
Mama, indie author, wife, believer and friend.
My only hope is that while you’re here, you feel a sense of belonging, comfort and empowerment. Because life is too short to live it worried you’re not good enough.

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.
