Welcome to The Waypoint — the nonfiction side of my blog, where I explore my varied interests on this side of the writing path.

I've always loved history, particularly the Victorian and Edwardian eras, and I enjoy researching the people, places, and traditions of those times. Much of what I discover finds its way into my historical fiction over at The Teacake Gazette.

Living near Yellowstone National Park has also given me plenty to write about. From wildlife encounters and changing seasons to the little things I notice while out exploring, I enjoy sharing my observations about Yellowstone and the natural world.

I'm also interested in pagan spirituality, folklore, and natural wellness, so you'll find articles about old beliefs, traditions, and ways of connecting with nature.

And last, but certainly not least, I love books! Here, I share book reviews, thoughts on reading and writing, and what it's really like to chase the authorial dream.

Whether I'm digging into a bit of forgotten history, observing something in nature, or following a question simply because it interests me, The Waypoint is where my curiosity takes the lead.
