Wow. This bastard blog page just dumped my finished blog and failed to autosave anything except an early draft? That's six hours I won't get back, and that I won't recreate either. WordPress just made their last mistake for me. I'll be migrating to a new platform, since the site has been removing features that … Continue reading Viva Mexico: Leaving The Land of Tacos

Baja Bound: thoughts after a few weeks of listening to the waves
I hope you like pictures of tacos. After months of delays and planning I got most of my ducks in a row for my trip down to Baja, California, Mexico. After a little over two weeks I can say it's just what I needed. I had to leave a few loose ends up there in … Continue reading Baja Bound: thoughts after a few weeks of listening to the waves
“It Will Get Worse Before It Gets Worse”
Well, 2021 ended in flames. Like a slow motion scene in a horror movie, it was one bad move after the next. After being unceremoniously dumped by my girlfriend/best friend of six-and-a-half years I suddenly had absolutely nothing grounding me to reality. All the plans-- short, medium, and long-term-- were out the window. Hell, there … Continue reading “It Will Get Worse Before It Gets Worse”
Of Rough Seas And Deserted Horizons
I'm sitting here and looking back at 2021 to decide how my 2022 should look. In looking back though I see a tremendous cascade of bad luck, failed attempts, and mistreatment that has led me to one of the lowest points in my life. Now, I'm not a "new year, new me" kind of person. … Continue reading Of Rough Seas And Deserted Horizons
I’ve Published a Few Pieces
Yes, nothing has been here on the blog or newsletter in many months, but that's because I've been working on other things. See, this page doesn't make me money, and when I write for pleasure I do it on a typewriter, not here. But just because things are quiet here doesn't mean I haven't been … Continue reading I’ve Published a Few Pieces
Looking Back To See Forward
I like to do a yearly post, for myself more than anything. Putting it up online makes it more concrete though: I reflect on the previous year's post and decide what the year ahead should look like. I can see if I was on track or veered away by reading the previous post, and it … Continue reading Looking Back To See Forward
Why Things Have Been Quiet Here
Just a quick reminder that the blog here isn't active because I've been on a multi-month road trip with my girlfriend, and all my work has been posted on our travel blog, 2hearts1horizon. Go there to check out what we've been up to and sign up for the weekly email there. It's also a good … Continue reading Why Things Have Been Quiet Here
My Appearance on the American Road Runner Podcast
Hey all, Just a quick mention that I was able to sit down with Bob Marshall and talk motorcycles, travel, racing, sidecars, and life in general, on his podcast, American Road Runner. It's Season 2 Episode 7 and is available at all the usual places like iTunes and Spotify and Podbean and Google Play. For … Continue reading My Appearance on the American Road Runner Podcast
Almost Time To Go Nomad
Well, things in the world of Johnny Killmore may have looked quiet lately, but that's because I've been planning my next adventure: 2hearts1horizon. In short, I'm going nomad. My girlfriend Kate and I are moving things into storage and making our new home a 1990 Honda Goldwing with a big ol' sidecar on it. I've … Continue reading Almost Time To Go Nomad
Launching A New Project: 2hearts1horizon
Hello universe, I wanted to leave a quick note here on my site to let people know I'll be going fairly quiet on all my Johnny Killmore social media and the website starting mid-August. The reason is I'll be hitting the road with my girlfriend for about 5 1/2 months immediately after I complete my … Continue reading Launching A New Project: 2hearts1horizon
