    Course Corrections

    This site has seen a lot of my going back and forth, changing my mind and goals with the regularity of how often one is supposed to change their underwear (Daily, ladies and gentlemen — at least). And here I go again. I will keep trying and trying and trying. It will be an honest…

    Passage of Time

    Leaves started to turn slowly at first. A spattering of trees here and there might turn a bright orange. Or red. Or yellow. In parts, maybe, the color would almost appear to be fighting against the green, snuffing it out rather than the other way around. Soon, though, soon the colors would explode. Seemingly overnight,…
