I am listening to: Tony Bennett, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Janelle Monae, Taize music, and Black Gospel. I love Black Gospel music. I love my iTunes.
I have a serious addiction to Twitter. I can be found at @deaconjonegger
My writing keeps me sane. I’m passionate about it. If I could reverse time back to when I was 18, I would go to Columbia, MO and get a double undergraduate degree in their Journalism School and their Criminal Justice School. Then I’d get a job as a cop (homicide) and write write write! Writing is my shrink, my therapist, my friend, my heart, and my soul; all wrapped up into what is my muse. 🙂
This, too, shall pass...views of a cynical optimist.
