Driving to School 6 Aug 2013 | 05:36 pm
I listen to a lot of music when I write. I find it helps set the mood and, honestly, I can get a little obsessive about it — playing the same song over and over throughout the course of a project. Ev...
“I wish I knew where to start, how to give what you dream…” 31 Jul 2013 | 01:28 am
For whatever reason, some tracks just stick with me. They become a touchstone. This is one of them. For me, this song is always going to evoke Christmas 2011, those cold winter nights right before my...
“Where is everybody..?” 28 Jul 2013 | 07:07 pm

Saturday Morning Cartoons: Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day 9 Feb 2013 | 06:36 pm
(One of my earliest memories is listening to this on my little Mickey Mouse record player. It makes me very happy that my youngest loves it as much as I did. As I still do.)

Bear with me. This post is a long one. I’m making some changes in the next few days and I wanted to take a few minutes to explain why. I don’t think it’s any secret that I have a day … Continue readin...
Happy New Year, everyone! 18 Jan 2013 | 02:07 am
Boy I can’t believe it’s January 1st already. It’s been such a hectic year, so much going on. And can you believe how fast the time flies when you’re so . . . wait, what? It’s the 17th? Already? Is … ...
