These voices - they are calling...
These voices - there's no ignoring...
These voices they just won't stop,
I'm so scared and I've had enough...
These voices - they're haunting me...
These voices - they won't let me be...
These voices whisper in my ears,
They taunt me and abuse my fears...
These voices - say don't take the pills...
These voices - tell me I'm not ill…
these voices say that you're to blame,
That these pills are driving me insane...
These voices - tell me what to do…
These voices - can't be subdued...
These voices - live in my head,
And they won't stop…
...until I am dead...

I strive to make sense of the world through writing. I break it apart, twist it, and bend it until it reflects new light. I invite you to see the world cast through my written stained-glass windows.

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.
