Run Gingerbread Man, Run – New York Marathon Edition

I am not completely sure where I lost all semblance of sanity. It was sometime in the last year. A tiny little thought gave birth to a giant goal. A goal that has taken on a life of its own. It started with the basic thought that I wanted, no needed to get healthy. I […]

A Tale of Anger, Hate, Words, and Love

I don’t remember the exact moment I realized I didn’t fit in. It might have been when my third grade teacher flipped my desk in the middle of the class and ridiculed me. It might have been fourth grade as I sat silently at a table reading my comic books while the school bully mocked […]

Transformation

The marathon is in the bag, done, finished, conquered, and survived. I went to Los Angeles this last weekend with a stomach full of trepidation and a head full of anxiety. I walked around all day Saturday actually wondering what have I done. I in no way felt prepared for the adventure I had signed […]

Marathon Man

Life has been interesting for me as of late. My writing has been ridiculously behind schedule. My editing for NerdSpan.com has been a lot of fun and at least gives me the opportunity to be a little creative. Then there is my running. I successfully ran a half-marathon in November and then got all crazy […]

Figuring It Out

I have spent a lot of time over the last few months trying to figure out which direction I want to head in my future. The truth is I have been a little depressed. I have had a hard time shaking it. I have not been blogging or writing very much. I know enough about […]

I Have A Book Issue… Maybe… Sort Of… Nah

The first step to fixing a problem is admitting there is one in the first place. I have a book issue. I can’t stop buying them. My house is filled with them. I have cases and cases of autographed books. I have probably a hundred books on my Kindle waiting to be read. Everytime a […]

I Work For Free…..Sometimes

The new school year has kicked into high gear and I am loving my new job as a media arts/creative writing teacher. It has however left me extremely busy and tired. I am getting behind on my editing, writing, reading, talking to friends, knowing what the hell is going on in the world. So basically, […]

Ugh, editing again

I have been a very bad blogger lately. The truth is I have been really busy. By busy I mean reading a bunch of books and slowly starting up the editing process on my next book. Editing takes me forever but I know what awaits me at the finish line is worth it. I have […]

Holy Adaptability, Batman!

I feel like it has been forever since I have written a blog. I have a good reason though. A funny thing happened on the way to the start of my new school year. I got transferred. That’s right, exactly one week before the 1st day of school I was called into an office and […]

Pinup Girl Boutique

It was our last day in Southern California and we were heading into Burbank to meet up with some friends and have lunch. It was very hot. Not hot enough to melt your shoes to the ground but close. Sheri and I were moving at a brisk pace to get over to the bakery. We […]
