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.”
The truth about multitasking & why I don’t do it
It's likely true that at some point in your career you've boasted about being a fantastic multitasker on a resume or in an interview. I did. It was my number one crowning achievement, or so I thought. My ability to handle all the things at any given moment is what...
Some Stuff. & Some Things.
>>Did you know I basically live for music? I'll admit I like love that pop junk, but my heart beats for independent artists and singer songwriters. But in all honesty? I can find inspiration in pretty much any song if I listen to it in the right way. Have you...
The Struggle…
If we're confessing things here, I really don't have any rules when it comes to food. I eat what I want when I want it. Because of our lifestyle, we mostly eat in. But sometimes I go on these kicks where I want all the fast food. Like I admitted on Monday, Saturday...
Babies and Puppies and Football…Oh, My!
Revlon: Chic **I also got a little too much enjoyment out of the fact that this color matched my fitbit. I'm easily amused. **Do you have a fitbit? Add me! What a weekend, you guys! The weekend around here doesn't usually mean much (at least not until games start--which at least...
Cute Cute Cute Cuticles!
(of course because I'm sharing about cuticle care, in the outdoor pics my cuticles look haggard. whatever) China Glaze: Float On I've never quite jumped on the Flip Flop Fantasy bandwagon. Mostly because every time I've gone to Sally's, it looks much more orange than...
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.
