I’m a recovering journalist, writer, editor, open water swimmer, and small business owner.
Currently at work on “Pia & The Elephant: A Daughter-Father Memoir of Drink, Ink & Catholicism.”
The journalist daughter of a gonzo editor races to pull off his big fat Catholic funeral before his long-suffering partner can make good on her threat to have him cremated and run off with his ashes to Ireland. Each step of the funeral triggers memories of their complex past of drinking, writing, and betrayal that explores the legacy she had to move beyond to build a family and find her own voice.
