About Me
Why Do I Write?
For forty three years, I didn't have a voice. And then one day, I said two words that freed all of the other words. "I'm Gay". I write so that others who have not found their voice can gain courage to speak and join the other voices of those that have come out. And finally, to shout over the voices of those that would try to silence me. This blog is a collection of everday stories and thoughts from my life. It is a celebration of what I have found. That living authentically is the only way out.
