  • Why Lance?

    Because the word blog sounds like something that comes out of a person's nose. This blog is named after my old friend Sarah's manifestation of a dreamy Wyoming cowboy named Lance.
  • About me

    I'm a journalist who spends my Mondays through Fridays writing other people's stories, a chronic procrastinator who needs structure. I once quit my job to write a book and like most writers, I made up excuses why I couldn't keep at it.

    My boyfriend fiancé husband Joe (and new baby Henry) like to sleep in late on the weekends, which means I end up browsing celebrity tabloid websites while our dog snores under the covers.

    I created Lance to better spend that time. I thought maybe it would jump start a second attempt at writing a novel.

    I'm itching to get The Move On, as my dad likes to say. I'm 26 27 28 29 30 and I'm afraid if I don't start now, I'll get caught up in something else.

    We all do.

The pitfalls of downhill roller skating

12 Oct 2010

The summer I turned 14, I went camping with my mother, my sisters, my friends June and Ann and their mother Wilma. It was a girls-only kind of weekend. The dads stayed home. We rented a cabin in the Pennsylvania woods, all of us girls, piled into one two-story bungalow. Within five minutes of driving [...]
