| Bio: | My name is Kester Smith, and I work as a bookstore employee and local minister in downtown Austin, TX. I started this journal thing as a way of communicating with teens, teens I used to work with, and any teens out there who may be seeking advice, encouragement, etc. It has become more than that and less, and that is fine. I haven't looked at it, written in it, etc. in almost a year and am updating it now. I just celebrated 7 years married in August, my son's 1st birthday in September and turned 29 years old in June. I'm into music, movies, television, books, plays, etc. I stopped pursuing a career in stand up comedy to pursue youth ministry (you could also say that it pursued me) and that led me into church planting in Austin.
