There's something about a holiday that isn't all about how much money you spend.

There's something about a holiday that isn't all about how much money you spend.

I grew up in the United Methodist Church, and church was always a very big part of my growing up.

I've named a couple things after Edgar Allan Poe: the cat, and my garden upstate, where I only planted black flowers and purple flowers - and there's a raven statue.

For me, I always wonder what's worse: an emotional betrayal or a physical betrayal? That's a really tough call.

I move around a lot. Ive lived in a ton of different places - and only for a month or two at a time. I have a deep, rabid curiosity, so I like having a gypsy life.

Im from northern Virginia, but I grew up next to the West Virginia border, so it was hills and farmland. We had that sense of adventure you get from growing up around old farmhouses and lazy, rolling hills, you know?
