  • Antioch Writers’ Workshop

    I’m not even sure where to begin about my experience at the Antioch Writers’ Workshop last weekend. A writing workshop has been on my bucket list for years.

    I suppose it’s time to actually blog on this site. Until now, this site served as my online writing portfolio for my job search, but I’ve landed a great job. I don’t want this site to sit dormant. This will be the fun part of my site where I might, on occasion, post random musings.…
