I love snow, and I will not apologize
If you hate snow, why? I understand if you hating driving in it, especially when city plows never touch your development. I understand if you hate shoveling, especially if you're older and it's too strenuous. I don't hate driving in it, but I generally don't go far when it's that treacherous. I'm lucky that I …
These Dreams: James, Carly, & Me
Do you remember your dreams? I've kept a dream journal for decades, on and off. I once took a series of writing workshops with Robert Moss in Wisconsin, in a magical space of time where internet friends came to life and freelancing filled me with hope, when I realized I was on to something bigger …
What Does Space Mean To You? 25 Questions To Consider

In case you missed my 4 a.m. book review/blog post this morning (you can read it here), I've spent the last few weeks marinating in a sort of limbo of not knowing my purpose in life. Keeping true to my word in that post, I'm showing up here and now in a daily check-in of …

What Is My Purpose in Life? And a Book Review.
Do you ever ask yourself that question? Do you ever ask yourself that question repeatedly at 3:17 a.m., when you've been awake since 1:30 a.m., and hear nothing but silence in response because it's dark as night because, well, it's the literal middle-of-the-night?
