More than a supernatural tale, Vampire Rising is a deeply moving allegory about identity, humanity, and the courage to exist authentically in a world that fears what it does not understand. An homage to "Dracula," it also an allegory for the AIDS crisis. bit.ly/3M36puZ

I take our dogs on walks at the cemetery near us often. Today, I took them for a walk at the pet cemetery at Laurel Hill. The visit left me oddly emotional. In this blog post, I explore why.

Went out to dinner to celebrate a college friend's 65th birthday. Another friend took this picture of me and my husband (28 years). I was thrilled with it until my brother pointed out the two women in the background giving us the side-eye.🌈💖
