Good morning y’all!
An overnight jump of new folks on the porch! Hello and welcome. 
If you’re just joining here, you can read some of my pinned posts to get a sense of the general vibe, but here is the gist:
I got tired and sad of seeing so much of the narrative around Little Rock being delivered with meanness, divisiveness, negativity, and snark.
I was trying to find a local perspective that is real, kind, kind of silly, inspiring, and challenging but that also treated our city like it is a true friend. Someone that you have deep love and real concern for but who you actually WANT to be better. I didn’t see that place so… as Little Rock often requires… I made it myself. We’ve been rolling since 2016. No one is paying me and my thoughts are my own. My work and writing here is a labor of pure love. 
I was born, raised, currently reside, and am raising the next generation of citizens right here in Little Rock, Arkansas. I’m proud to be from here and have stayed by choice. I’m often called delusional for the belief that Little Rock can be better but my belief is rooted in the undeniable and clearly evident progress of the city’s growth in the decades I’ve existed here.
Growing up, my family took long winding drives all over the city just about every Sunday so if you’re here to tell me nothing has changed, save it because I have been literally watching the whole time. 
If you’re in Little Rock and in THIS space for the first time, we are being kind, having fun, and facing problems on this part of the Internet. Little Rock is growing. It’s just a matter of if you want to be a part of it or just watch it happen.
I’m happy you’re here and welcome!
