12 Signs That You’re a Female Child of the 80s
Traveling back to my childhood home is always difficult for me because it reminds me of how far away from my hoodI am.

What’s Going On With That Movie We Made
I’ve been trying to avoid writing gobs about our film, Loves Her Gun, on this blog. Though it’s a big part of my life, I don’t want to talk your ear off about it. You all have been super supportive along the way and I really appreciate that. A lot has happened since the film [...]

Austin’s Best Restaurants That Don’t Cost an Arm and a Leg

Confessions of a Hypochondriac
hello….? (tap, tap, tap) Is this thing on? hi. I’m going to write a blog post today. It’s the first time I’ve felt like doing it in awhile. You see, I started a new writing job that has (happily) exhausted my ability to drum up words at the end of the day, in addition to [...]

I May Hate Its Politics, But I Love Living in Texas
Me drinking a High Life at one of my favorite places- Texas Chili Parlor It’s been a both a challenging and inspirational year for forward-thinking Texans. As many of us continue to watch the ongoing HB2 saga unfold, we often feel confused in our emotions for our home state. How can this wonderful and unique [...]
