A Letter to the Woman on the Floor
Embracing sobriety and dismantling personal obstacles
My latest post on Substack is about the incredible impact that sobriety has had on me, but it applies to any obstacle that's getting in your way.

Anyone else getting really worried about our decreasing ability to distinguish reality from AI? (Among the many other things we have to worry about.) Our susceptibility to being conned is growing, and it terrifies me.

While on vacation last Thu, I met author Judy Blume at her bookstore in Key West! I purchased a special edition of Are You There God? Itβs Me, Margret, and she signed it. I was a babbling mess in the moment and giddy the rest of the day. Looking forward to rereading it for the first time in decades.

For writers (or anyone!) who get anxious about speaking/reading in front of people, you are not alone. I did an event last weekend, and I was very nervous. Once I told the group that I have anxiety, I pushed forward and it was so worth it. We can do this, we can share our stories with the world!

The real scam: making you fear the βthe otherβ while the rich rob you blind. I wish every American understood this.

Hi everybody! I've self-published two books since April 2022. Life has been rough this year, so book three is currently on hold. Trying to respect what my mind and body need right now.
