Joe Chellman is a restless soul who can’t make up his mind. He’s a drummer and web developer, amateur photographer, enthusiastic cook, voracious reader, and occasional basketball player, in addition to hosting and providing tech support for On a Whim. He grew up in New Hampshire, where there are towns with more critters than people. Sometimes Joe feels like those towns.
