Have you ever watched a dancer or listened to a musician, read the words of a novelist or looked at the work of a artist and thought, “I wish I had that kind of talent.” Have you ever heard a story of a successful entrepreneur or inventor and told yourself, “I wish I could have […]

On Saturday I had the honor of speaking at the San Francisco Writing for Change Conference. This is my favorite writing and publishing event of the year because the people who attend are all extremely passionate.

Getting married and staying married are two entirely different things. It’s easy to get married. It’s not so easy to remain married. Marriages, just like all relationships, take work.

I’ve been struggling with how to write this post ever since I heard about Robin Williams’ death. Depression and suicide are such touchy subjects. It’s hard to write about them without offending someone in the process. I’m no stranger to suicide. My daughter’s best friend took his life after their freshman year in high school,
