Amusing, introspective, relatable. These cozy but thought-provoking posts are suitable for tea breaks, unwelcome dread at 3 a.m. or waiting for pasta to boil. Repeat as needed. Won’t you join me?

Essays about my dysfunctional family and my often fabulous gay father, coming out as a writer, depression, working a 12-Step program for recovery from disordered thinking and eating. Sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's sad. It's all me.
