PODCAST! Who Doesn’t Love a Good Dog Story? Chatting with Mitch Davis about The Stray

I think now would be a great time to take a little break from all of the disheartening and polarizing stuff on our newsfeeds, and just hear a good old fashioned story. The kind they used to tell, you know, back in the day. The kind that has ups, downs, and yes, maybe even some […]

The Weird Truth

So one of our Core Values here on the Isle, is to look for truth and beauty in the weirdness all around us… Like this delicate little flower on my back deck, still somehow hanging on in the dried up, crispy, forgotten flower box. It’s a stunningly beautiful afternoon as I write, the kind whereby that […]

Who Do You Think You Are?

I am not so very good with word pictures. But I LOOOOOVE beautiful places: oceans, lakes, streams, waterfalls, puddles, anything involving water, really… and mountains, valleys, hill and dale, even deserts with all the flora and fauna that comes with it…Oh, and if you can converge any of the above with a stunning sunrise/sunset/thunderstorm/swirlingclouds/puffyclouds/crystalbluesky…all the […]

PODCAST! Heaven is not our home? What??? Talking Eternity with John Eldredge

John Eldredge has made some pretty bold, unapologetic statements in his career. Statements like, “Men are seeking a battle to win, and adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue”, or how about this classic- the Gospel was not meant to be a “sin management” system… The man pulls no punches. And, agree or disagree, […]

PODCAST! Conquering the ME Monster and Living for Another with author Brent Gambrell

One of my all time favorite movie lines (benchmarked by how often I find occasions to insert it into every-day conversation) is from the ultimate chick flick, sing along with Bette Midler tear jerker classic, “Beaches”. It’s when the divine Miss M, in an attempt to deflect and nurture her narcissism all at once, says… […]

PODCAST! Amy K Sorrells: Storyteller & Unofficial Southerner

So what does it reeeally mean when someone says “Bless Your heart”??? Take the Country-fied Catch Phrase Quiz I gave author Amy K Sorrells, and find out how much of a Southern smarty pants you are. And while you’re here you might as well stick around for an honest chat Miss Amy (as they say […]

You Don’t Know Me…

I don’t like to brag, but well, I know people… who know people. In fact, one of my good friends was once a stand in for Elizabeth McGovern in the hit 1980’s John Hughes film “She’s Having a Baby”. (here’s the scene where she stood in… I think!) You know what this means, don’t you? […]

PODCAST! Shari Rigby…EXTRAORDINARY Misfit

I had the chance to talk with Shari Rigby the other day. Despite her success as a model, actress, director and author, she assures me she fits in among the misfit crowd, so we let her in, cause that’s how we roll around here. It was a great chat about a number of fascinating things, […]

Strange Solidarity…

One thing about us misfits, is that we often feel like no one gets us. That, after all is the essence of misfittery (yes, that word will work in Scrabble, or you’re playing it wrong). It can feel lonely. But sometimes, if we’re brutally honest with ourselves (and seriously, why would we ever want to […]
