"A relationship should not be measured in months or years. It's the calibre of the memories that matter. Their impact, their permanence, and the degree to which they change you. I've had relationships lasting years I can now scarcely recollect, and hours with others that feel like infinities."



- Beau Taplin, "The Measurement"



A little about me. I'm an avid reader, traveler, and military veteran in my mid-twenties. If I'm not writing or working, I'm planning my next trip or how to save for it. Being too brutally honest for most people's sensibilities, I'm often the voice of reason or a soundboard for others. My life goal is to collect a wealth of experiences savor and share them through my writing.
