I will be one of two featured performers at @storyclubcle on Wednesday 5/13/2026 at Forest City Brewery at 7:00. The other featured performer is @madmaddybaker who awes me every time I’ve seen her read and perform. It’s going to be fun! Along with us will be some other featured performers and an open mic. Have a story you want to read? Is it 8 minutes or less? Write it out and sign up for your chance to read and get featured as well!

Second time doing Arcadia Grille a couple weeks ago, and it was a great time! I hope to be down there again soon!

Got to work as a background extra for @fracturedmovie2026 for a few days and it was a really fun shoot. I always love an opportunity to be part of the filmmaking process and along with that meeting a lot of awesome people. Can’t wait to see it!

Any Caldwell homies want to meet me at the halfway point between Cleveland and Caldwell? I’ll be on this show in Canton 5/22 at 8:00
