Beyond The Peak

Let’s close out this year with a brief piece of nonfiction about how to move forward when you don’t know where to go. Join me while I spend way too much time looking at a late painting by de Kooning, done after he was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.

Read “Beyond The Peak” at Raft Magazine.

Here’s hoping the new year brings you success (whatever that looks like for you) and surprises that delight you and expand your world.

Thank you for reading! If you enjoy my work, please follow this blog for updates. Consider supporting my continued creativity and existence by picking up a copy of CONVULSIVE or THE WINGSPAN OF SEVERED HANDS for yourself, a friend, an evil nemesis, or a local free library.
