A password protected confession. Okay, so that doesn’t actually rhyme, but you get the gist. Leave me a comment or send me an email at nicnarrates at gmail if you’d like to read the latest.

Guest Blogging, Part II

Sunday, March 8th, 2009

This being my final guest blog here (assuming Nic doesn’t go all Natalie Holloway on us), I’m going to stick to her script and write briefly to more of her suggestions. She wrote to me Or you could even talk about how awesome March Madness is or the coming debauchery of St. Patrick’s Day if [...]

Guest Blogging…

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

While Nic is strutting around topless on some tropical island beach, enjoying fruity alcoholic drinks with umbrellas (dare I say, “fancy” drinks?), and cavorting with spring breaking college boys (let’s hope), I’ve been asked to fill in for her with a guest blog or two.

Maybe it’s due to the lack of sunlight, the surplus of single digit weather, or the looming tax season. Whichever it may be, our tendency is to break up a [...]

For What It Meant

Sunday, November 18th, 2007

It’s easy to say that I miss Him. Harder to explain why. Graphic Designer Friend asked the other day. My reply: He saw me.Knowing Him made me feel that I, in turn, was known. And I miss the knowing, the friend in Him who knew. The one who was there long enough, who took the [...]
