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.

Stuff & Things #3
It's Thursday. You know the drill by now. A very candid glimpse into the world of a writer. >> I've been waking up at 6AM every day. Some of you might be thinking "pssh, bitch please. I get up that early or earlier every day, too." But I work for myself. In my...
The Time I Saw A Ghost
I had this boyfriend in high school. Looking back on it now, he was just a very small part of my HS career and my overall life, but for whatever reason my teenage brain had his memory stored in The Big Things. The relationship was brief. And in the end, he pretty much broke me....

Mama, indie author, wife, believer and friend.
