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.”
Coffee Catchup + Mani: Revlon Sublime Strawberry
Current Manicure: Revlon Sublime Strawberry. This is one of those annoying scented polishes. But the color is so dreamy that I can't give it up. I came across this polish a few years ago when I was on a mad hunt for OPI's Chapel of Love. Surprisingly, that polish is...
Glitter Hearts
Polishes: Base: China Glaze VIII Hearts: Sally Hansen Twisted Pink--applied with dotting tools from JENNIE 😀 Flake Glitter: Nicole by OPI Heavenly Angel (this was extremely disappointing. I wouldn't recommend it). 1) I really need to get on it with using the real camera. Sorry...
unLovable
We are approaching the one year anniversary of the day my husband packed his bags, and I watched him pull out of the driveway towards a life I couldn't imagine at the time I'd ever want. It was that day that I spent the evening curled into the fetal position crying so hard I didn't think I'd ever...
Oh.
Oh, hi. Do you ever go through those phases where you just...I don't know. Have nothing to say? I know that's shocking. Joey with nothing to say. I've been keeping my mouth shut lately and just listening more to what's around me. Sometimes I get that way when I'm in...
Update!
Hi Friends! I wanted to pop in for a quick minute and just thank all of you for your constant support and all the thoughts and prayers through this unbelievable medical situation. I can't believe all the ups and downs and all of the scares we've been through in the last few months. I met...
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.
