I'm a writer at heart, so this is one of the places I write. It's where I store my ideas, observations, interests. This is my personal reflective journal on a range of topics. I'm told journaling is good for the soul. I hope so. And since there's nothing quite as powerful as an idea, maybe a few of those will manifest themselves in my writing. Thank you for reading and always feel free to post a comment.

Thank you, Dr. Timbs. We couldn't have done it without your moral support as well. Glad you could be there.
Way to go, Christy and crew!
That is awesome! Congrats and way to show those big universities that Winthrop is just as good if not better!
