Over the course of this month I have deleted far too many posts before they could become entries. I find myself not only editing my novel, but revising my thoughts before they can be set down in what passes for digital stone here at WordPress. The days that flow backward behind me start to make [ READ MORE ]
I had a thought while reading through all of your comments on various posts of mine – you know who you are. In fact, there aren’t that many of you, so were I not so lazy I’d just dig around and copy all of your names into this post…buuuuuut I am that lazy tonight so [ READ MORE ]
I lean in my doorway, staring out into the inky blackness of the night. I can feel the doorframe pulsing against my shoulder, as though the beats of my heart were somehow shaking the very foundations of the earth.

I should be tired. Instead I’m wired. I love my life lately. It’s been such a strange and oftentimes ridiculous road I’ve traveled to reach this time, this place. I’ve had an unusual degree of focus for some time now. It is both odd and oddly comforting; as though I’ve finally broken through some unseen [ READ MORE ]
I’m awake and alive. Such a simple statement. The words could literally mean just about anything. For me they’re somewhat more complicated than the initial sentence reads. There are moments in this life when everything dials down to just one thought, one feeling…one insane move that will completely change your life and the way you [ READ MORE ]
