Here’s a fun essay I wrote for this great new site level:deepsouth that chronicles Generation X (of which I am a proud member) living in the Deep South. It’s about the time in 1984 when I met “R.E.M. at the Mall.”

I wrote this piece – “Robin Williams, and Being ‘Almost There'” – shortly after he died six years ago today about a very brief, yet also very special, encounter I had with him that has stayed with me ever since.

Here’s a fun essay I wrote about my thoughts on running.

Happy Global Running Day! Here’s a link to an essay I wrote about what running means to me (spoiler alert: it’s not speed)

In time for the holidays, I’ve posted my essay “The Old Man and the Santa Sprint” on Medium – a fragile ego on an “old man” can be a funny thing!

Because I ran the annual 5K Santa Sprint today, I am re-posting a piece, “The Old Man and the Santa Sprint,” that I wrote about my experience in this supposed fun-run a couple years ago – and how dare anyone call me an old man! Happy Holidays!
