Welcome

In many of the conversations between only me and my dad, he will ask, "When are you going to write a book about that?" Well, Dad, I'm writing a blog. 

Most of my life I've been told I'm a "good" writer - I think, in part, because I'm a good reader. But being told you're a good writer can be a lot of pressure, especially if you have a corporate job in marketing and spend your days writing for others. At some point I stopped writing creatively for myself, which I've finally admitted takes from my own satisfaction. So I've decided to act like it's 2006 and start a blog!

It makes sense that, at least at first, what I'm most comfortable writing about is other artists' work - I get such joy from reading a great book, hearing a new song, listening to a podcast host enthusiastically share the same article I loved, or learning a writer's perspective on our ever-changing world. This blog will catalog and review the things that bring me the most insight and joy. Some are substantial, some may be considered frivolous, but they each make my day a little better, so I want to share them with you.

Thanks for reading along with me as I make a commitment to join the creators.
