13.1
All right, it’s done! On New Year’s Day. So cliché. Wasn’t nearly as lightning fast as I was in 2008, but I’m doing what I can to flatten this curve. There weren’t too many negative after-effects either, which is great news. Thanks for organizing it, Camille! Sure, I’d do it again. Still think another...

Quarantine Hair Experiment
This isn’t nearly as impressive as I feel like it should be, but I’ve had moments of excitement imagining what it’d be like to have long hair over the last several months. I still haven’t been able to replicate where I was at age 4, but you never know. It’s getting old, but I’ll...

Quick Fringe Brainstorm
Guess I must be feeling optimistic about the year ahead. Here are some ideas about what to put on for the next FronteraFest (a year from now?): Snatch and Release: This is a script I already have, and intended to feature at a variety show last summer, about a punk band that has to...

That’s right, another decimal-place-laden post. This was the goal for mid-December. It was difficult and tiring – but satisfying too. Planning for the half marathon at year’s end. Then maybe I’ll take it down a notch....
Day-Job Brag
While I wait for the old ship to come in with creative projects (bestsellers, Oscars, Tonys, Emmys, etc.), it’s nice to know that the daily 9-to-5er isn’t all in vain either. I got nominated for a year-end award for my day job. Posting it here as a reference and affirmation if/when I need it....

9.1
I ran 9.1* miles last week. That’s more than I’ve gone in about nine months. Wasn’t exactly a speed demon about it, but maybe that half-marathon is within reach again. Will see if I can get to 10 before too long here. * man, who tracks their mileage to the decimal place? how embarrassing… ...
A Few Goals Through Winter 2021
It’s been a while since I’ve been in here, and there’s been a lot going on in the world (obvi), but I wanted to get down some goals and try to hold myself accountable to them over the next several months. Here they are, in chronological order: Write a new experimental short play for...

Stories Found Podcast
Honored to be featured on Episode #2 of the fine, new, entertaining podcast Stories Found. The story I tell (I can’t quite make myself type the name of it here for some reason) is actually one I originally wrote 20 years ago. I remember sending it to a highfalutin literary journal at the time....

Re-Learning to Run
It’s been a year since I got to wear a special bracelet, and I’ve had a number of physical ups and downs since then. Early on, I seemed to make a quick, strong recovery. But then odd pains and side effects showed up in the new year. Seems I’m not quite as impervious to...
