Welcome to my creative corner, let me show you around.
First stop, introductions . . .
Picture a recovering overthinker who would love to stand on a street corner handing out permission slips to women looking to reclaim their fun side and you’ve got me—someone who believes laughter is medicine, novels are the best kind of therapy, creativity isn't just for kids' art classes, and joy deserves as much attention as your to-do list.
From my cozy office nook, I spend my days writing stories and creating spaces for women who are quietly wondering when life got so... serious. (You know that moment when you realize you haven't belly-laughed in weeks? Yeah, we need to fix that.)
And when I'm not drafting stories or mandating creativity (or rearranging furniture for the eleventh time this month—I blame HGTV), I'm laughing and watching too much NBA basketball with my husband—who, after 25+ years, still makes me believe in happily-ever-afters … and tolerates my endless quest for the perfect vanilla oat milk latte.
The Podcast
Remember that woman who didn't worry about neck wattle? (Seriously, when did that become a thing?) She's still in there, and the I Used to Be Fun podcast is her invitation to come out and play.
Think of each episode like a coffee date with an encouraging friend (even if she does laugh at her own jokes)—one who reminds you that joy isn't frivolous and playing isn't just for preschoolers. We talk creativity, confidence, and how to reconnect with your playful, joyful self (you know, the one—the woman who got a bit lost between carpools and career meetings).
The Books
My award-winning Storyhill novels are feel-good fiction with some steam and a guaranteed happy ending. These stories feature smart, funny women navigating life's mess with their found family, complete with enough banter to make you snort-laugh and book boyfriends who might just ruin you for real-life partners.
Think of them as your perfect escape hatch after a day of adulting.
The Newsletter
In each issue, we pull up a chair. Warm mugs optional but encouraged. We follow thoughts on creativity that won't let go. We linger on something we've read or made or noticed. We laugh a little, question a lot, and make more room for play than we probably think we’re allowed.
Nothing performative. Nothing perfectly packaged.
Just people showing up honestly — and figuring out together that the messy, creative, still-figuring-it-out version of us is actually the best one.
Come have coffee with me. I saved you a seat — and I'd really love the company.
Let’s bring the wonder back. Grab The Wonder Project—four weeks of playful permission slips, creativity prompts, and wonder journal pages, delivered to your inbox like a little nudge from your fun, slightly forgotten self.
