  • 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 and I'm afraid if I don't start now, I'll get caught up in something else.

    We all do.

The (low) key to my heart

30 Jan 2012

Me and the Mr. are featured on my gal pal, Meg’s blog: Mimi + Meg. It’s just a little Valentine’s Day post, a gift-y guide kind of thing, designed with Meg’s super snazzy touch. Upon reading what I wrote I was struck by how utterly unglamorous we are. Really? Our “couple time” is spent watching [...]

Crawling back to you

28 Jan 2012

Something unsettling came to my attention recently. Something that shouldn’t have surprised me. Something that was like, duh, inevitable. I’m a mommy blogger. I had this no-shit epiphany after receiving an email from the communications coordinator at a cookie-cutter corporate preschool chain. “Would you be interested in publishing my guest posts on early childhood education?” [...]
