Hey there, out there in internet land, I have something to tell you. When I started Femme on Fire roughly two years ago it was to keep my family and friends posted as I prepared to leave everything and everyone I had known on this continent and move to France, perhaps permenantly. I wanted a place where I could write about my experiences preparing to go and eventually living there. And while I was there I did that, I captured a part of my life that was so incredible and different from anything I had known and that I will always look back on as a bend in the road. I was also so glad to have you there reading and keeping up on my experiences.

Since I've been back I've tried to maintain this website to keep people posted on what I'm doing, but have not really discovered my voice for this site, or defined the role that it plays in my life. So, now is as good of a time to do that as any. Going forward this website will be dedicated to a Newsletter of sorts for my friends and family who I do not get to talk to often enough. Surprisingly, or not, that includes many of my best friends and loved ones who live right here in my city, but whom I rarely see because we are all so busy (and have you seen that traffic?)!

In the future this website will only have family appropriate content, but I feel I should define that. See, I mean my family. And what my family deems appropriate your family may not. In fact, what I deem is appropriate for my family, my family may not agree with, but I will try to keep the cussing to a minimum and I will only tell stories about drinking and dancing on tables when they are morally sound (just kidding, Grandad!).

If you want a larger window into what I like to call "shenanigans," please contact me and I will be happy to direct you to the appropriate venue. A post of the outlined nature is coming soon!
