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.”
Things I’ve tried recently
Remember when you could trust the recommendations you saw online? Before the term influencer had ever been uttered? Yeah, I miss those days. It was my favorite part of blogging. There were certain bloggers who I trusted wholeheartedly. If they told me a shampoo...

I Think I Can…I Think…
I feel a little bit like a fraud because I'm meant to be writing a post all about the power of positive thought and how just thinking you can often means that you will. And I believe that. I do. I've seen it happen before. I've had it happen to me before. But for the sake of...
Get Me Out of Here
This week has been one of those that I haven't been able to keep track of what day it is. And unfortunately, I've kept thinking it's a day later than it is. There's nothing worse than leaving work on a Tuesday thinking it was Wednesday all day. I knew it would happen eventually--I'm...
How To Use Buffer For Twitter
People think bloggers sit down at their computers for 10 minutes, spit out some mumbo jumbo, hit publish and that's the end of that story. Ha. We wish, right? Right. You know it, and I know it. Running any kind of remotely successful blog takes a ton of freaking work. And if you work a...

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.
