I attended the 2025 James River Writers Conference.

Along with the keynote address by Angie Kim regarding writing later in life, there were many notable panels exploring the writing life.

I am thrilled to launch a Substack. By way of Scott Solomon's Writerly News, I intend to write down writerly things picked up along the way.

Thank you @thedrevlow.bsky.social and BULL for publishing “The Fray,” a story of mine delving into the perils of involuntary commitment to a substandard mental health facility. (Link in bio and below.)

Recently, I undertook the task of moving back to my hometown. Had I not made this exhausting yet exhilarating effort, I would have been filled with regret for the rest of my life. Now, every morning, I awaken to a view of one of Richmond’s community gardens.
