Digitizing Records
By Joy Lynn Clark 05/24/2024 While in between contracts mom introduces me to one of her friends in radio. He asked me all about my education and I mention all of my skillsets; especially audio.

Shopping in the burbs
By Joy Lynn Clark February 10, 2022 In middle school I moved from my mom’s house to my dad’s house. Mom took baby sister and her new hubby and moved to Indiana. I moved a few towns away but stayed in Illinois. I jumped right into my new life in a proper nuclear Family. Dad, stepmother, stepbrother, and I. Dad was always busy at work and grumpy. My step brother and I had a healthy fear. On the other hand, my stepmother was very welcoming and I came to see her as, “the good cop”. Saturday mornings were always shopping and chores. Stepmother would get up really early to go…
