About Me

My photo
I am one of the most random people you may ever meet. I do my best to enjoy life in general, and I try to be content with what God has blessed me to have in my life. I am a blunt, honest individual that will give you an honest opinion if asked. Relationships are the most important things in my life. I am concerned with only the opinions of close friends, family, and other close relations of people who care about me. Otherwise, I tend to not care what other people think of me. I am not here to please the world. I am on this planet to serve others in hopes that God finds favor with my efforts to do so at the end of my Earthly existence. I am a good-natured person that lives for the moment. Even though not always successful, I try to look at things in a positive light with a productive attitude and world view. I am thankful for each breath that I take because each breath that is taken is a blessing in of itself. Make the most of what you can while you can. You get one chance at this thing called life. So try your best to Glorify God and Enjoy Him Forever. If you have any questions about me or my BLOG, don't hesitate to ask, and I will give you a straightforward answer.

Signings and Recent Feelings - What to Remember Me By

Recently I have been frustrated with life and just what I perceive to be a lack of progression. I have lacked the patience for a natural progression in God’s time. I have two signings coming up for my first book:

Gnu's Room Signing April 23 11:00 am - 1:30 pm in Auburn, AL

Little Professor Cafe Signing April 30 12:00-2:30 pm in Birmingham, AL

I am really excited about these mini signings which symbolize where things begin. When I publish my memoir cowritten by both my father and Tim Webb I will remember the people who helped get me started, who helped support me in the beginning before I was able to make a name for myself.

Things take time, and I forget that sometimes. I had a friend tell me today that if you are patient in the small things God will deliver on the big things with faithfulness in good due time, but it takes time.

I do not measure my success on how much junk have, although I have an 87’ Pontiac Fiero for sale if you would like to purchase it. I like having a sporty car that barely runs, but I would like to think that running a marathon, backpacking through continents, getting a Masters degree, writing books, and hopefully acquiring a good job would attest to what I have done rather than a list of possessions I have accumulated.

I feel that I have gotten caught in the mundane of everyday routine life, something I vowed to try and never do. It is like walking through a desert without water sometimes.

For me, I hope that my signings remind me of what accomplishments and this Easter holiday are truly all about, to bring glory to His Name and His Name alone. I get caught up in ME when I should be caught up in HIM. I hope you are able to come out to one of the signings to support me as I push through to attain a dream greater than myself.

  1. Random is good:-) I think it's way underrated as a quality.
    Congratulations on your books.

    God Bless,
