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.”
Shit I’ve Quit (and maybe you should, too)
This year has been all about growth for me. A lot has happened in the last twelve months that's required me to grow up seemingly all at once. I never understood when adults would tell me as a child that you don't ever really feel like a grown up. I get it now. But...
Real Life: It’s Happening.
Hey guys. Did you know I wrote a book? No? Are you new here? Well, if you are new, I did write a book...while planning my wedding no less. Ok, ok. I kid. I totally didn't plan my wedding. My mom did. She has far more patience for that crap stuff than I do....
Getting back to it.

Football.
Story of my life, lately. I wish it was always this easy to get him home. I'm so grateful he's able to contribute and participate in something he loves. But the puppy dog and the wife miss him. Football? We have a love/hate relationship.

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.
