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.”

The Messy Middle of Launching A Business
It's 5:30AM. My husband is still asleep on the couch where he fell asleep watching TV last night, and the cat is pawing at my lap, begging for more cuddles. But I'm staring bleary eyed at my computer. It's too early to put in my contacts, and I'm too stubborn/lazy to put on my glasses. My alarm...
Sometimes Excuses Are Truths
A friend texted me last night and asked me how book #2 was coming. It's not, I replied. I racked my brain searching for a reason, and I had plenty, but they all sounded like excuses. Because they are. The truth is, life got busy. I got wrapped up in work. My family is dealing with loss. And...

Mama, indie author, wife, believer and friend.
