    Before We Go

    I dream about space a lot. I was obsessed with NASA as a kid. I used to build model rockets and see how far I could shoot them into the sky. My obsession with the cosmos in high school is the reason I majored in physics in college. Han Solo was my spirit animal —… Continue reading

    Book Ends

    The first time I flew overseas was in high school. My mom chaperoned a school trip to England and France. We did all the tourist things, saw some cathedrals, ate strange food, walked around museums, had too much to drink for the first time. Traveling to Europe felt exotic. The only other times I’d left… Continue reading

    Change is Okay

    I grew up in the deep south, the buckle of the Bible Belt. My dad was a farmer and my mom was a schoolteacher. Everyone I knew was a Republican. I was taught to pray so early that I don’t remember it happening. I just always said a prayer with my mom when I got… Continue reading

Just when I thought this sunset sail couldn't get any better... Anchored off the most beautiful beach in Martinique for a few nights. Set up camp on the sand for the day. Absolute paradise. This is our favorite anchorage in Martinique. Never seen another boat here, just tons of wildlife. Lots of birds, the best coral in the Caribbean, and sea critters galore. Just today we swam with rays, turtles, eels, and dozens of species of fish. Right from the boat! I grew up on a farm in North Carolina reading physics books from the local library, wishing I had someone, anyone, to talk to about the wild universe we inhabit. The best thing to come from my sci-fi career is that I get to surround myself with like-minded, curious people. Dinner with a few friends... Life gets easy when you find your person.
