• Read it.

    Thoughts on my must-reads: books that moved me, books that I had a visceral reaction to, and/or books I consider instant classics.

    READS

  • Write it.

    Essays inspired by all the things. A potpourri of musings from my life.

    ESSAYS

  • Drink it.

    Tasting notes and sipping experiences from my favorite beverages, adult and otherwise.

    DRINKS

I write in my books.

I fold the pages.

I bend the spines.

I leave coffee and wine stains.

Follow the fun.
