Growing Up on the Road
I remember growing up on the road
Spending summers with Mother
On her burlesque circuit
It started when I was 6
My parents got divorced
And Mother
Was forced to raise 2 kids on her own
I went to a military school
In Tennessee
My grade school years
Then travelled on the road
With Mother
In the summers
I love remembering those days

Son of a Stripper - May 2016
I am the Son of a Stripper.
My Mother was a burlesque dancer for over 20 years in the 1970's and '80's. As a child, I grew up in that environment. I got to travel with her on her burlesque circuit in grade school. I went to a military school in Tennessee during the school year, then travelled with her on the road in the summer.
It was quite a life. I learned a lot. By the time I went to high school, I'd already had lived a full life.

Summer in the Boonies: From Vegas to Milford
I'm back home in Milford.
Came back from Las Vegas the very end of May. And it's been quite a summer already. Knocking these scripts out, and trying to get some projects done back home here before heading back out west this fall. I always feel like when I'm back here at the house out here in the country, it's an artist retreat. Nothing to do except work on my art. What a life.
I'm so rich....
