Apparently my website was lost. Working diligently to recover as much of it as I can. My apologies.

Update. I was able to recover most of the text content from the beginning through February 2024. Unfortunately, it appears all images are gone, and all content from February through today (August 3) is lost, including the email subscriber list. I’m bummed and and am going to take some time to determine my next steps.

I’d appreciate it if you were to resubscribe to my newsletter, but completely understand if you don’t want to.
