My latest pieces appear here. Usually humor pieces, but occasionally I write about popular subjects like compressed air companies.

If you want a short, smart, well-written essay that will make you laugh and nod with understanding and appreciation, read Pieces of Jim. It's always a treat.

How Not to F*ck Up Your Face

By Val Monroe

philosophical and practical advice for anyone who's ever looked into a mirror

If you're into beauty, but kind of hate the beauty industry because it messes with your self esteem while confusing the hell out of you, this is the newsletter for you. If you're like me, and need all the help you can get, I recommend How Not to F*ck Up Your Face. Also, it's funny and kindhearted, and who can't use some of THAT?
