Writer. Dog enthusiast. Velociraptor masquerading as a human female.
Lately, I've been very invested in the music side of my life. I suppose this makes sense given that Summer is the busy time for the band when most of the festivals take place. But the last several days have been wholly dedicated to the writing side of my life. I didn't have any band... Continue Reading →
I discovered this book at World Fantasy Convention 2015 and devoured it. Here's what I thought: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1437472191
Happy Halloween everyone! And what a beautiful Halloween it is. Crisp autumn air, seasonal colors on the leaves, sun shining, blue sky. A more perfect day I could not have asked for - a perfect day made all the better by the fact that not only is it Halloween, it's also Miners Creek Bluegrass Band's... Continue Reading →

I felt like someone had opened up the top of my... Continue Reading →
Labor Day Weekend 2014. Miners Creek Band entered the Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Special Band Competition. We didn't win, but we did connect up with some of the other bands who competed. On August 22nd, we played on WERU community radio (To listen to that show click here). Before we went on air we sent out an email... Continue Reading →
Seven hundred and eleven pages. One hundred ninety-four thousand, six hundred and forty-two words. This morning I hand wrote fifteen pages over the course of two hours. I usually write ten pages over the course of a day, but today I felt like if I didn't finish this draft I never would. I didn't write... Continue Reading →
Yesterday, Mom was sick. We also had a gig playing the Bean Hole Supper at the Camden Rockport Historical Society. As the afternoon progressed and Dad and I realized that there was no way Mom was going to be able to do the gig we started to panic. How were we supposed to play a... Continue Reading →
