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...
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...
The True Magic of Marriage
The other day while I was running, Stand By You by Rachel Platton came on Pandora. I've heard it a hundred times before but barely listened to it. It's catchy enough though it's not really my cup of tea. After that run, I went home and bought the song on iTunes. I had...
Time + Hard Work = Perspective
When my Camry died, I was knee deep in Yeah, Maybe revisions on a computer that was 7 years old and barely functioning. Everyone was telling me I needed to get a car. I decided it was more important to get a new computer. So after Yeah, Maybe was published (that's right, you guys, I...
Is The Apple Watch Worth It + How I Use It
I'm all for anything that makes life seem a little easier these days. In the last 12 months, my life has done a full 180, and I'll be honest in saying that 90% of the time it all feels like too much. I adored my Fitbit Flex. I wore it religiously. I raved about it. And the...

Mama, indie author, wife, believer and friend.

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.
