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.”
Just a little gratitude & laughter
In all honesty, I've had this podcast episode ready to go since Sunday. But I decided, after being inspired by Maria of RunningMyselfTogether, to go for a run that day. It was my first run in...well, a really long time. And it was the furthest I'd run in...well, even...
Stuff & Things: The One I Might Regret
What I really want to say to you here is this: I'm too lazy to make the commitment. I'm hesitant to make the decision to try because it sounds like a lot of work. And I have such little free time these days that I'm feeling less motivated to spend that free time being active....
How To Use Wunderlist and Why + 2016 Projects Revealed
People are either talkers or doers. Very few are both. In the last few years, I believe I've transitioned from talker to doer, but I'd started to lose my edge recently. I had this general sense of OMG I have so much to do, but couldn't ever pin down exactly what it was that I...
Celebrate The Wins
Good morning. This post is coming to you in real time. Remember when I said 2016 was going to be a good year? That I was going to push myself to do things I was scared to do? Well, considering my New Year only started on Feb 1, I'd say we're off to a good start! I don't have a...
Stuff & Things: The One Where I Break Up With Best Buy
Gather round, it's story time. So I got a Fitbit Charge HR for Christmas. It's what I wanted, and having had a Fitbit flex for over a year, I knew I'd be happy with it. The one I got had a malfunction and stopped charging properly. No big deal. I called Best Buy to...
HI, I'M JOEY
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.

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.
