Juice Berries (and Other Emotional Thermostats)
I looooove juice berries. They are my snack of choice. Their flavour, texture and (interestingly enough), invitingly yummy look, all add to the experience of enjoying them. I wonder if these, along with other snacks I enjoy, are representative of my moods at any given time. Could their consumption be

Somewhere
In an effort to further advance my manuscript development, I'm currently researching different ways to stoke the embers or creativity. Something that has been percolating at the back of my mind for sometime now, involves creating a companion video montage for the different stories I'm developing.

Part 1: Daybreak
At some point, I had enough of passengers with too many opinions, too much money, not enough respect for turbulence. And even though their DNA was not naturally configured to supply feathers, I was still fed up with their basic lack of understanding of why gravity was not their friend.

Inverted Reality
I just wanted to flesh out a bit more about myself as I am pursuing my passion for writing. Note, the key word here is pursuing. The often misguided impression is that I have already "caught" my passion, but the truth is, it's continually in a

Thresholds
Recently I came across a word I've never heard before. Liminal - of, relating to, or being an intermediate state, phase, or condition : in-between, transitional - example… in the liminal state between life and death. Full disclosure. I was introduced to this word while watching a trailer for
