I am pleased to announce a modicum of success. I finished the first short story that I’ve begun in months! Historically, I’ve found myself enjoying decidedly fast-paced, aggressive, gory horror. I’ve recently put an eyeball into the water of extreme horror, and in doing so shortened my lifespan while enriching the time I have spentContinue reading “Write, Edit, then Write again”

Finishing the Finishing of Furniture
I’ve never before thought that a china cabinet could work me to point of death, but damn it mine just about did. I’m being hyperbolic, I promise, but it genuinely felt like I was about to die of both waiting and upper arm workouts. The day finally came, though. I have one complete and fullyContinue reading “Finishing the Finishing of Furniture”
Post DragonCon Depression
It seems like I left on a cliff-hanger the last time that I posted. Before I get into everything, I’ll do a quick recap. DragonCon is a five day long multi-genre convention with upwards of 60K attendees that takes place in Atlanta Georgia every year over Labor Day weekend. I’ve attended every year since 2014Continue reading “Post DragonCon Depression”
Pre-Dragon*Con JOY
There are a lot of things in this lifetime that bring me joy. I am a connoisseur of crab rangoon, a lover of cats, and of course a devoted reader. I have other interest of course, but those are the things nearest my heart. There is however one event that stands out to me asContinue reading “Pre-Dragon*Con JOY”
Long Story Short, it’s a Short Story
The longer I live the more I realize in general that I’m not great at keeping things quick and simple. I’ve talked a lot on here lately, about a lot of different things, and I’ve on all accounts continued to wax eloquent on the smallest of topics. Much ado about nothing, I suppose. In interestContinue reading “Long Story Short, it’s a Short Story”
Finishing Furniture
I’ve been deeply embroiled in a semi artistic project the last few months. I’ve done a few projects adjacent in scope to this one in that I’ve worked with paint or worked with furniture but never both at the same time. Okay, I’m done being coy. I’ve been refinishing some furniture. My husband’s family hasContinue reading “Finishing Furniture”
The Elephant in the Library
There is something that I’ve been meaning to talk about for awhile that I keep putting off. It’s probably obvious if you take a look at the rest of my site, and the question that I imagine you’re asking is one that I ask myself all the time. With all these hand written articles andContinue reading “The Elephant in the Library”
Kitten Farts
A week or so ago I wrote about the kitten I recently brought into my home. She’s still super cuddly (when she isn’t biting me) and super sleepy (when she isn’t biting me). I’m (mostly) kidding about her fighting prowess butI’m not at all joking when I tell you how much I love this littleContinue reading “Kitten Farts”
This Autosave is Killing the Vibe
It’s been circa two weeks since I wrote about my mental health struggles. I’m pretty open to talking about the things in my life, but I felt a bit vulnerable posting it anyway. After I posted it I felt pretty good about it. I walked away and went about my day and later on IContinue reading “This Autosave is Killing the Vibe”
Kittens, Kittens, Kittens
There is a very significant part of my life that I don’t think I’ve mentioned yet. I LOVE cats. That sentiment really isn’t at all unusual. Go on the internet and pick a site, any site. I feel pretty certain that on every single website you could find some kind of information or media regardingContinue reading “Kittens, Kittens, Kittens”
