Will write for yarn.
For your viewing pleasure, I’m resurrecting some old posts that might have been lost in the literary action. This story is mostly true, and paints me in an odd light. Which is to say, completely accurately.
Years ago, I was invited to a party. I’m not saying it was the last time, but it might have [...]
The house I grew up in is now a store. A running and walking shoe store, to be exact. The point is, you can walk in whenever they’re open and see the dining room where I played piano and made up songs about my brother’s stuffed animals, the kitchen where I learned of my parents’ [...]
The weather is like this: cooler, when you can just put on a sweater and only feel as if maybe a coat would have been better. The leaves are falling and smell of sweetness and decay. The crisp football air feels good.
But there is an argument. This homecoming game littered with high school angst is [...]
I just submitted my blog for your analysis the other day, and realized too late I’ve made a grave mistake.
First of all, that damn little box that asks us “who we are” is ridiculously filled with a few sentences that probably have little to do with who I am. I mean, when someone you’ve never [...]
This is a piece from my “creative” blog. I have no idea why I initially separated the work. Perhaps because that other stuff is darker, less conversational. It could continue to stand alone as a short fiction piece or it might be the beginning of a longer story. We shall see.

I climb the steps to the bridge overlooking the river, out of breath and empty after my run. The water here is a shallow, pebbled flow, fifty feet below a platform that sits on an old railroad support. I know this water, this river, like I know the sound of my name. My heart beats [...]
Dearest Friends,
After pursuing, luring and wooing you to my blog over the last year, I find myself now in a state of flux, of directionless wandering. I premised this site on my own dysfunction, my conjunction junction, my joie de viva Las Vegas, but now I feel I am pulled in too many directions and [...]
Come on, sugar. Let me know.
I have entered a contest to win fabulous prizes and a luxury vacation! Well, it’s fairly luxurious. And it’s in Utah! I’ve never been west of Avon, Ohio, and that was for a business trip to a hazardous waste treatment plant, so you can imagine my excitement about the possibility [...]
My daughter got her driver’s license last week, which has made me feel kind of old, and kind of nostalgic. We bought her a 1995 VW Jetta from a friend of mine and just finished getting it road-ready, but she still can’t drive it since it’s a manual transmission.
But I can.
I took that car out [...]
I just got this idea off of Delicate Flower and decided since I’m trying to prepare for Indie Art Market I better find a lazy way to post. Like you didn’t already know too much about me, here goes:
Rules: 1. Respond and rework; answer the questions on your blog, replace one question that you dislike with [...]
