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.”
Productivity Pep Talk: The Boundaries You Need to Protect Your Productivity
It’s Friday. Thank God, right? I’m 100% on the struggle bus this morning after foolishly trying to reintroduce the 5AM wake-up habit the week of Daylight Savings Time. Seriously, what is wrong with me? I’m already dreaming of climbing into bed tonight at 8PM happy as...
So now what? The Book: Part 3!
Catch up here & here. I didn't know where to start. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that to you since, you know, I graduated with a degree in Creative Writing. But here's the thing. I don't think there's any right way to start the process. I think you have to figure out what works best...
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel: Review
OVERVIEW: I picked up the set (the miracle gel topcoat and the miracle gel shade in grefitti) from Walgreens. $7.99 each. You can also pick up a box set for around $14.99, but not all of the shades are available in a box set. You can find these at any drugstore or big box...

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.
