Flying Lessons—part 4
At the end of the last installment, Will thought, Gone wrong. This day’s gone wrong. If only his day had gotten better from there...but sometimes they don't. Despite that, Will realized he was hungry. His nostrils twitched at the smell of raw onion when he pulled the...

A Rainbow of Birds
As a little kid, if asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I’d respond, “I’m going to get a PhD in Ornithology.” Weird? Cute? Definitely nerdy. I birdwatched with my dad, loving it, and the birds. Though I did not reach the lofty goal I set for myself, I still love...

Save the Date!
Six weeks from today, April 9, 2024, will be a day I’ve dreamed about for years—the day I become a published author. No More Empty Spaces is a story I had to tell. It took years to do so, I’m proud of the result of that labor, and I hope many of you will open its...
