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.”

Friday Letters: edited so I’m not confusing people!
Dear last day single Joey (2 years ago)~ You were spot on when you wrote this in an old journal: *I sneak out into the garage to grab a drink. Quiet and familiar, a break from the chaos. Heat radiates from the recently stilled engine of Mom's Expedition as it naps, exhausted from it's...
two cents: fighting
Dear person in any kind of relationship: A little advice. I don't typically go there, but sometimes it just needs to be done. I consider myself a relationships writer, and if that's the case, then this post just needs to be written. None of us are perfect. There are things,...

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.
