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.”
Paint My Future
I balance my laptop and notebook in one arm and a to-go coffee tray in the other as I booty bump the office door open. Myra's already there, and she's on a call. She looks up from behind her computer and smiles. I unload my stuff onto my desk and put her hot cocoa on...
Worth Every Penny
There are two gifts from my husband that, while might have been a little pricey at the time have paid for themselves tenfold. I use these two things every. single. day. And I won't be willingly giving them up anytime soon. So if you're looking for stuff to add to your Christmas list that you'll...
The one where I don’t wash my hair
When I would see all these people who are all "Oh yeah, I'm sporting third day hair," and they look like this [Yeah, that hot biotch would be Raven. And she doesn't wash her hair every day. Whatever.] I' was all like...psssh, liars. Because I used to look a little something like this...
The kidney saga & Nail Files.
Me & my kidneys. Basically? To sum it up. They hate me. I don't know what started it, but the whole saga began back in 2007. And since then I have had too many kidney infections to count. I don't get the whole bladder infection turn kidney infection thing....
Currently…
Currently I Am... Stealing... this idea from Steph at The Beautiful Mess [just stumbled upon her blog and LOVE it. Check it out.] Reading... the Pretty Little Liars series. More like devouring it, really. I'm on book number nine and i. just. can't. stop. Thinking...

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.
