Check out my posts about this particular past—and other writing along the way that deviates in the direction of art and my partner's work in international disaster response. (I sometimes even write about blogging, gardening, and my battle with bipolar disorder.)

A link to the first chapter of my memoir is below:

But as you scroll down, you’ll find links to my latest posts.

I'm currently doing a creative project that is related to my memoir--transforming a staircase into art:

Hope you’ll stop by and join the fun—maybe even subscribe and leave a comment. I can’t wait to meet you!
