  • I’m Not Writing Anymore

    The last short story I wrote was the one that got published at the end of last year. I wrote it in May…at the beginning of May. I haven’t written a short story since. It didn’t even register to me that I haven’t been writing until this week because I’ve been writing here. I even…

  • I Feel Cheated! Tale of a Bad Buy.

    Technically, it’s my own fault because I didn’t look at the page count in the item description. But I never do that! When I buy a book I assume it’s a book! So a few months ago I came across this book on Instagram…or maybe the woman’s YouTube channel was suggested in my feed…I don’t…

  • Brit Bennett: The Vanishing Half

    I did it! And with 2 days to spare! If you don’t know what I’m talking about, go back and read my frantic post from last week. I’m still soaking in my thoughts about this book. It was simple, refreshing, interesting…kind of like cucumber water…but also like mango iced tea with a little rum mixed…

  • Haphazardly Vanishing

    How was your Christmas (or whichever other Holiday you celebrate)? I rested last week. Christmas week is the only paid vacation time I get at work, and it’s been one hellofayear (intentionally one word), so I decided to do nothing last week. I wanted to truly and intentionally rest my brain. I laid on the…

  • Happy Holidays!

    I didn’t have the words on Tuesday for what I was feeling so I just didn’t post anything. But I have them now. See this post on my other blog. If you’re not into Bible stuff, you can skip to the end. Basically, we’re taking a little break. ♥

  • BIG GIRLS Pt. 5

    “I said what the fuck I said!” *** And that’s all folks! Now, I’m sure I could figure out a one-word story, but I’ve decided against it. I think I’ve pared these characters down as far as they’d like. We’ve had some big bodies, some big personalities, and some big mouths over the course of…

  • Winging It

    I did not have anything in mind to post today. I’ve been so stressed out lately and trying to manage that stress takes up almost all of my energy. I did, however, finally start reading Parabale of the Talents (yay me!). I don’t remember this book at all even though I know I read it.…

  • Thoughts on Parable of the Sower

    I finished Parable of the Sower about a week ago, but haven’t yet started on Parable of the Talents. There’s a lot going on in my head and in my life and I just haven’t been able to pick up another book this past week. I’m not going to recap what Parable of the Sower…

  • My First Published Story!

    I told you some time ago that I had news to share. Well, now I feel comfortable sharing it. One of my short stories is getting published in a literary journal! I first got the news back in July, but I was waiting for the issue cover to come out and just to know that…

  • BIG GIRLS Pt. 4

                    Janet twirled around the fountain—fuchsia dress flowing out around her, feet barely touching the ground—dancing to inaudible music. She reached for a nearby child and spun him in the air.                 “How do you even deal with her?” Levi scoffed.                 A smile spread slowly across Jay’s face. “Love, man.”
