January 2012

The New Year was welcomed in surrounded by friends, champagne, and confetti-laughter. At the end of the countdown, I got to kiss my sweetheart because he flew in from Minnesota to see me. The rest of the month was spent mostly at a coffee shop finishing my first book, After the Witch Hunt, in a writer’s delirium.I also did a mini teaser-tour of the North East reading poems and leading workshops. 2012 was a big year for love, fun, writing, and touring, and January served sort of as a microcosm for what was to come.
